Not everyone uses facebook you know. Post pics, lol. I found appearance makes a difference too. If your young and wear a white hat that doesnt fit properly on your head, you may be defected. I had an mr2 that sat on 20's with 2 tone paint and was followed briefly by HWP but never even got pulled over. Who really know what goes through their heads?

How has it? Someone assumes from what they know that you can get as many as you like, and you assume that he has been an asshole to the cops to deserve a red sticker.

The red sticker is in regards to if it can be driven or not from the spot it is infringed on.

As RB25PWR said (And he'd know more than anyone here) they can give them out for what ever they feel like.

There are cars I've known of that used to get a red sticker once a month!

It has defect me written all over it.

You have a car that attracts attention, well you got it.

While I do not think your car is bad in any way, having big wheels (they stick out of the guards, this is a defect), milo can exhaust (another defect) and stickers everywhere is just asking for it.

Yeh the comments about if you were a cop would be useful if the topic was "if you were a cop would you defect this?" or "is this car detectable?" of course its detectable or I wouldn't be asking the question "what happens when you get 3 red stickers?"

Nice car dude. As for you other nobs, jealousy is a curse ay? If you were a cop?? Pfft. If u were a cop u'd be the same as the hwp morons that theres already too many of.

The scoundrel's defense. It's not a matter of jealousy (of which I have none for "hellaflush"), it's a simple matter of rules, and the fact that you can bend some, but this clearly breaks (via sledgehammer) several.

It's a matter of how obvious the defectable items are. Rims sticking what appears to be > 2" out from the guards is as obvious as a big neon orange sticker saying "COME GET ME BOYS" on the boot.

Yeh thanks for telling me what me and everyone else already knew fact is imports get targeted doesn't matter if they look stock or not.. Might aswell get done with how you want the car to look/perform than to go half assed and still get done.. If you don't no what happens after 3 red stickers don't worry about posting again because that's what this thread is about

A cop could defect anyone and everyones skyline in this thread.

I think your car looks pretty f**king tough but yeah. I have no idea what a red sticker is but driving a car that sits like that in Australia is going to ask for alot. I'm sure it won't be hard to rectify... Raise it up, remove camber and get wheels with better fitting offset.

Most milo cans were designed and built in Japan by reputable companies. I care not what anyone has to say about my milo can.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.

    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
