Yerp, i hear ya. I very teary.

Im having the matter investigated and making a complaint against the officers involved. I also am speaking to my local MP. Then i will open up a file at work (law firm) and make them pay for my wasted time and money spent on this issue.

Im tired of being walked over by those mother bitches.

pardon my ignorance, but do regency issue a 'pass certificate' for any vehicle that has gone through their scrutineering?

if so, wouldnt it be suffice to keep this in your glove box at all times, provided that the car is at the same level of modification when it was passed.

Sorry to hear Cheeky.

Try this.  Person gets pulled over next to my servo that i work at.  Police defects car for not having brake light.  Wouldnt it make more sense just to make that person walk to my servo a full 15metres away, buy the stupid globe and fit it in front of them.  Police officer drives off,  person asks one of my staff to fix globe, took 5 minutes.

What servo is that? I drive past a R33 sometimes at Mobil on Lower Nth East rd, is that you??

Cheeky - good to hear that you are taking a firm stance on this, its about time someone does, just a shame it takes such a stupid act from a cop who has no idea what he is talking about to make it happen

point taken.

fact of the matter is though, even thought a group feels like they are being targeted, they are not the only ones.

talk to anybody who owned a V8 in the 60's and 70's, or the turbo owners of the 80's they will all say that they were the targets of similar attention.

btw: i dont agree with revenue raising from sapol which is what 'most' of this topic comes down to.

i am interest to know can they defect u for just the pod filter?

I think, as Cheeky's instance show, they can defect you for anything they want, legal or illegal, just depends on how the cop feels on the day

Its a total joke

Pod filters r legal if they are mounted properly. In my old car i had to proove it on several occasions i didnt have a blow off valve.

Im sorry to hear bout it erica. If it was me id have heaps of other fines for going off at the pig and prob a few more defects.

very harsh, specially to a girl!

It also shows that it doesnt matter wat sex u r now either.

I was caought doing 75 in a 25 zone last night and the cop gave me a choice.. $58 for no front numberplate or 600 something for speeding.. didnt even look at my car... go figure...

A. Ive been thru regency twice with POD filter, they are LEGAL.

B. If a cop can defect for somethin, then why cant they UNDEFECT the car they defected instead of goin to regency.

C. Once the car has been passed by regency, as soon as u leave, u can be defected again even thou ur car is 100% legal. The inspector at regency told me this, and even if u carry ur passed inspection report with u at all times, its unlikely it will save u from being defected again.

Well doesn't that make you all feel nice and warm inside........ F-All!

Like everyone else has said this is getting to the point where it is gettin way too dangerous to take an import out on a drive.

    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
    • lol already been put in temporarily 3 years ago
    • Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
