ok i understand your point about "fraud" (as it is a contract it is actually misrepresentation).

but consideration is still needed, and $1 for a car isnt sufficient consideration. most courts will rule that no contract existed unless SUFFICIENT consideration is offered.

and my opinion is based on case study.

He has about 0 chance of getting his money back from yourself and getting your mechanic to fix the problem.

A RWC is very very limited in what you need to check for.

Brake pads only have to have X amount of thickness, same for rotors etc.

Oil leaks cannot be visible at time of inspection (do you know how easy it is to degrease & Wash engine, get inspected and pass)

And the RWC Inspector cannot fail the vehicle, same for rust, paint over or bog rust and it cannot be failed (It must be visable)

I would never trust a roadworthy it says nothing about a vehicles condition other then it meets the minimum requirements which is very minimal!

I used to work for a major company doing roadworthies and its scary what can get through if you go by the book! We used to make people fix dodgy items that had tried to be hidden for the inspection etc... As it's more of your reputation you are protecting, not a legal issue.

Only times i have seen a company get done for a dodgy roadworthy, was a car was passed with visible rust in the chassis and rotors no thicker then a pencil. And issues that couldn't of been changed or altered. Hell the car could have a leaking head gasket and still pass roadworthy!

Most inspectors will turn around and say (especially months later) that the vehicle wasn't in that condition when inspected and then it must be proven it was which is bloody impossible for oil leaks or electrical failures, mechanical failures etc

My rule of thumb was always get a vehicle inspected by a performance workshop or trusted mechanic (Comp test and leak down tests are a must)

    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
