Whos the asshole if the owner of the car has done known illegal modifications

well if you see my car it is very clean and i was not doing anything wrong to get pulled over. the minute he pulled me over he didnt even say hi how r you or anything he just said get out the car and open your bonnet. i thought that was very rude of him mate.

and since when are coilovers illegal modifications? arnt they ment to be better for your car

sounds like he was stating the obvious... it stands out.. he was saying it was shiny.. seems like that is the least of your worries now.

get the stuff swapped and fixed up and get a real roady (you said its very clean) and then put all the mods back or leave it legal.....or don't do it at all and part out the car/sell for cheap....

These are the chances you take when you modify your car, not a matter of you were driving well so you don't deserve to get caught.

lol, if your car was that legal/okay you wouldn't be seeking a dodgy roadworthy. No one does these anymore anyway...massive crackdown on it and harsh penalties for doing them.

Just raise the coils and swap out the shit that won't pass. Sucks he was rude to you straight up, but that's the culture some cops create and ruin it for the decent cops...just like a lot of import drivers give them lip when they get pulled over for actually doing something. Assholes all round...

yeaah i will have to bring it back to stock i did raise the coilovers and they said it wont pass with coilovers so i have to change it back to stock suspension, the reason why i wanted a dodgy is because i work 6 days a week so i havnt got time to change around the car then put it all back on ive had it for 2 and a half years and no problems as its only my weekend car, just so annoyed

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
