haha, internet english is a shocking language.

Doesn't require too much intelligence when there's guys driving around with I <3 HWY stickers all over their VL's...

Here is something I prepared earlier.

I couldn't help but shake my head for a long, long time...

Here are some of my stats: full license, intact.

Honda Euro-owned 3 years-0 random checks.

Skyline 33-owned 1 yr- 9 "random" checks.

S15-owned 3 months- 4 "random" checks with 2 EPA

mr2 turbo-owned 5 monts- 1 random check

Yamaha r1 motorbike-5 "random" checks.

So basically, if its import, sports car, you will be picked on. Dont let anyone tell you otherwise.

Oh but man...didn't you read the advice? Drive safely without doing anything stupid and you'll be fine (fineD). You obviously didn't drive how you normally drive when you were in the imports.

^^ don't forget the D. Hwy patrol loves giving you the D

#1 post I have seen from a-a-ron!

dw.... it only took 14,582 to get there

Another update of my experience....

Drove down to local coles to buy milk last night, at like 9:30pm. Drove into the carpark, and at the roundabout, there was a car on my right, so I stopped and gave up, then I saw a cop car behind the first car, so I waited a couple of seconds. The cop just looked at me and stayed stationary.

So I drove through the roundabout knowing that he was waiting for me, drove around the carpark and found a park, got out. He pulled up behind me, wind his window down.... So I said g'day office, he replies with "got your drivers license?". He went through all the checks then let me go.

Are imports targeted or was it random? you be the judge lol

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
