Cop pulled me over in a GTR on my P's

Asked to pop the bonnet... "Is this the twin-turbo"

"That's what the pipe says"

"How does it go?"

"Pretty good, you want to go for a run?"

"Nah, I'm on the job... I see you have P's up"

"Yeah, I'm on my P's"

"You know these are illegal to drive on your P's"

"Yeah..."

"NEXT TIME YOU GET PULLED OVER, YOU MIGHT NOT BE SO LUCKY"

"Thank you officer... have a great day"

NOT ALL VIC COPS ARE BAD... just the ones that either can't afford a skyline... have a family to cater for (I do now)... or are still hung up and early 90's Bathurst.

no fine... no defect... not even a warning (apart from the last comment)

I was out in Ringwood... we had our chat in a carpark at 'round the back of 'rebel sports' there... just after I'd made an illegal right-hand-turn :rofl:

I thought I was dead, but he was really cool!

A family friend who is also a cop came around to my house at easter and I told me the car looked nice.

I took him for a run, then threw him the keys.

After about 15 mins of driving he turns to me at a set of lights and says "I don't think you should driving this on your P's" (I don't drive it often)

"Really (Sarcastic)"

He then proceeded to rocket off at the lights... bit of a waste really, there were only camry's and stuff.

I think you people are over reacting.

If your car was stolen, then you'd want to know why the cops weren't out looking for it.

Do you realise that when they check your cars details, that they are in fact checking the database to see if the car is listed as stolen?

The fact that they were just doing their job, and you gave them attitude....

I ask the last cop which pull me over. Can you explaine to me why you guys wana pull me over which i just got pull over 20 minutes ago.

...is enough of a reason for them to give you a hard time.

Don't give them a hard time when they're just going their job.

It's not as if they would have known that you were pulled over 20 minutes earlier.

Yeah, there are good cops out there... but this instance, I would be very angry too.

I have seen calvin's car a week ago, and it is basically stock bar a few bolt ons. I did not pick anything wrong with it and the cops comments were just unreasonable and unjustified.

You should not worry too much as you know what is right and wrong, but it is inconvenient to have to go through the process and deal with that kind of discrimination.

I am not sure where you plates are sitting, but from what I know as long as it's secured and visible it should'nt be an issue. Otherwise put the plates in the original position by bending the crap outta it so it will fit and ask them... "how do you like that now"?

Sorry for the long post.

maybe, but what does talking bullshit and calling stock things illegal have to do with checking if its a stolen car??? It still doesent go past the fact that most of them are ignorant baboons that dont know wtf they are talking about when they pull u over.

The cop(s) in that story have to be the biggest idiots.

I have been pulled over twice and they have only picked up the number plates have been cut (to fit the front bumper) which they have given me a warning.

Police do 'vehicle checks'.... where they go out and pull over cars.

During these checks, they will ask ...

"have you got your licence there?"

"does the car belong to you?"

They will take your licence back to their vehicle, where they do a registration check, to see if the vehicle is indeed owned by the person driving the car.

They also check if it is listed as stolen, and they do a licence check, and check on the drivers traffic history, and any other involvements they may have had with the law.

A car doesn't NEED to be stolen for them to do these checks, they are standard checks that are done every time that a car is pulled over.

The 2nd time he got pulled over, the police who checked his details would have known that it was the 2nd time that he had been pulled over that night, because if a vehicle has been checked, it stays listed as checked for 48 hours.

I pulled up next to TMU in Malvern Road last night.

Put window down - the passenger police was checking out my car - before he could say anything, I told him he might do well to turn his headlights on :)

Much red face from driver - I tootle off home ;)

i got pulled over for random checks whedre they had already pulled lots of old cars which looked unroadworthy. two of them walked towards my S2 gts-t and told me to pop the bonnet which i did, nothing under there except a dry pod filter which was secured. they went ahead looking for other things but nothing was found so they looked under the car..... again nothing!

it was f#@%ken stock standard! then they went ahead trying to break off the air filter which they couldnt so after a while they gave up and said "you better secure that filter" and walked away, didnt even shut my bonnet! now if i dont have to go to jail for bashing unreasonable people i woulda kicked the shiets out of him the little red head b@stard!

ok i think i should get my 2c refund! :headspin:

Yeah I understand that. So what I was saying was I don't see what having the police pull him over had anything to do with the whole police looking for stolen cars, they pulled him over due to the fact it was a "grey import". Ah well :)

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
