JUN`R32 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Hey Guys, A run down of the story Travelling home from work and got defected by the Rosehill highway patrol (if any of you guys are in western sydney im sure some of you would have come across these bunch of Cu$#@#$ !!! Got defected for the below 1 headlight out (electrical problem which has been fixed) BOV (which is plumb back, although the officer stated he was not a mechanic and is putting it down as he see's it, then how can you defect me for it ?? his response was mate the mechanic will need to check that) Exhaust checked for compliance Horn wasn't working (Fixed) Battery not secure (Fixed) POD filter (Fixed) Defect is for a full inspection blue slip Problem is it's a full inspection and im in need of a mechanic who is quite lenient on blue slips etc etc Taking it back to standard is just not worth it, too many non standard parts welded diff to start off with which makes me think a engineering cert may not even help but correct me if im wrong anyone feel free to PM me if they are uncomfortable with posting up names on here Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384178-defect-rego-issue/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Hey Guys, A run down of the story Travelling home from work and got defected by the Rosehill highway patrol (if any of you guys are in western sydney im sure some of you would have come across these bunch of Cu$#@#$ !!! Got defected for having an illegal car...and not only that, your horn didnt work, you had 1 head light etc and they're a bunch of dream boats huh? They wont know it is a welded diff unless they drive it, if they question it tell them it is an aftermarket LSD As for the exhaust, make sure there is a standard cat in there and that it is quiet and you shall be right Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384178-defect-rego-issue/#findComment-6128669 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldZilla Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Their.... LOL @ attempting to make a correction, and even the correction is wrong! They're = abbreviation for they are. Example: "They're going to check over your car for defects." Their = denotes ownership. Example: "Their car is bound to be full of defects." There = a place or location. Example: "Who owns that car over there? I bet when the cops pull him/her over, it's gonna be defect city for that poor sucker..."

Krovikan Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 gotten a little off topic now... i help get back, As far as i know, you can not engineer an aftermarket BOV that makes a noise due to no factory car comming with one... Therefore all BOVs that make a noice are defect... eg: HID lights were always defect untill cars like the S2000 and M3 started using them. Now everyones got them.

Husky33 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 It's not due to cars not coming out with them, it's due to emissions. aftermarket hid's aren't legal mate. Just because a car has something doesn't make it legal on another car, as the car that has it obviously complies with ADR. And to the OP, it's called the appearance method. If you're car appears to be in good condition and not either a hunk of junk or a full blown race car that sounds like a jet taking off, chances are you'll be sweet. If i was a cop and I'd pull over the car that only has one headlight, and then when i found out the horn wasnt working and the battery wasn't secure, i'd go over the car with a fine tooth comb. It a pain in the ass but if you want to drive a modified car on the street, you need to adhere to the appearance method as closely as possible.

GTR-N1 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 ....................... you need to adhere to the appearance method as closely as possible. My appearance of being older than I really am must have helped over the ownership of 3 grey import-GT-Rs I'm sure Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384178-defect-rego-issue/#findComment-6139452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
