lol that sounds like a horrible weekend...have to be really careful with making sure ur rego is up to date because they will usually always get you for it, even if its just a day over. i assume because you wont have ctp on your car once your rego has expired??

hope ur mate doesn't get in too much trouble anyway.

The positive aspect is that in NSW, an unregistered car can't be defected. :yes:

hahaha well there you go unrego all the way... dat prob y they didnt defect me..

one of the police where pretty nice though i found out he goes to the creek to the skid pan in his 180.. he drove my car

around the corner and i had to warn him its no a sr20 so dont put your foot to far to the ground... it was a good laugh...

well until the highway patrol they called court noticed us hahah

Cleaned out a rental place in another city having been moving over the past few months, we also thought we could do it in 1 day so ended up sleeping on the floor all night with no furniture, pillows etc...

A few years ago I was putting some speakers in my shitty old car, so took mum's camry out to go see some friends in town (in newy). I got rbt'd round 2am when dropping a few of them home, when the officer spotted the rego:

"Are you aware the car is out of rego sir?"

"No officer, it's actually my mum's car... how long out of rego is it?"

Officer looks at her watch, "2 hours" domokun.gif

Hahahaha, after a long chat with her supervisor they decided to let me go.

I'm a bit confused, did you get tickets for being unregistered or did they give you a little piece of paper saying you must attend court on a certain date? If it was the latter why did they do that? Have you had this happen to you more than once before? (Or more specifically your mate who was driving)

edit: My weekend sucked, I worked!

yes there was no fine for it just given a letter of a court date for next month & why your ask they did this... my opinion it was more aimed at my mate

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
