Random pull overs.. when were you last pulled over?


Recommended Posts

Only time I ever got pulled over in my R32 was for doing an U-Turn at the lights. The undercover cop was a complete prick, but didnt inspect the car.

Havent been pulled over yet in my s13..i expect to though. Silvias are cop bait.

The police are much more polite than in most countries ive seen, especially places like the US. We have it good, we just have to put up with the conservative crap like not being allowed to have a low car, or mirror tint, or tyres extending outside the guards...they want everyone to drive hyundais

the most embaressing time was being pulled over on James St in NB no less with sirens on and it was the weekend... needless to say i was centre of attention for awhile... didnt get a yellow though... only time in 2 yrs

now i got Ceffy its all good :D

On a SAU cruise on West Coast Hwy got told to tell everyone to slow down. It was pretty funny sitting there in a side st watching everyone else going past in the rear view mirror

Yeah, and they only let you off cause your an old bugger:p

Talk about hypocrisy :flamer:

  • 3 weeks later...

Had my R32 for a couple of months now, haven't been pulled over yet and driven past plenty of cops, even overtaking them. Haven't done anything really illegal near cops (ie stayed within 10kmh of the speed limit). Doesn't really matter anyway, my cars all legal. As long as you know the rules then you should be ok, as long as your car is legal.

Got pulled over more in the Saab 9000 i used to drive, but i deserved that :(

I'm wondering whether people have ever actually been pulled over for doing nothing.

Paul, how many times have you actually been defected????

Guys, you dont know how good you have it, here in SA, people get defected for stock BOV - in fact, I dont know of anyone that has been pulled over, had bonnet lifted and not defected. Hell, one girl got defected for her stock BOV, they could hear it because of the pod - she offered to lift the bonnet, but the cop told her not to and gave her the defect anyway.

My hint for not getting noticed (as told to me by a cop who is a mate) is dont cruise Kings Park, NB, Freo etc, and dont do circle work in car parks:p

Thank god I will be back in WA by the end of the year:)

Update: Another random pullover for me, on the way back from Oktoberfest :P

Cops were pretty good, after 2 pints I only blew 0.02, they mentioned my front number plate and said I had to fix it, no mention of tint or anything.....

Then I was let go... Hooray for Swan Valley coppers!

i got pulled over, last thursday in my subi. just been playing pool and some little **** stole my front number plate. i was dropping a mate home and we went past a cop car. he pulled a 180 and pulled me up.

'' excuse me sir, are u aware that u do not have a front number plate?''

'' righttttt'' and i started to laugh''

he didn't find it funny. he was aight bout it but, just told me to get one tomorrow and i was on my way. still havn't been pulled up in my 31 yet.

Steve, Been pulled over yellow stickered 7 times, been pulled over heaps more:( Glad your coming back to WA, make sure we catch-up when your back:D

How the hell do you get a sticker removed from your car???? God it took me over a week to get the turbo/manifold/plenum off the skyline, not to mention all the other bits.

I will definately be in touch when I get back:)

My darling friend Melki decided that she wanted Maccas last night and got me to swerve across three lanesof traffic to get it - then shouted cops! The cops were sitting in Maccas carpark ..... but they didnt budge - while sitting in drive thru i saw 2 cars go speeding past them and still they didnt budge ..... mustve been giving each other :69: or something .... should be more cops like that :D

Haha, I leave all the stuff on, and I get it passed;)

I'll let you know how when you get here:D

there needs to be more cops like this:

a few nights after getting my car back on the road (RB25 engine conversion in S13) - still yet to register the new engine with the car.. i was driving back from a cruise along morley drive... went past tuart maccas - 2 cop cars turb right and follow me, one cop car drives past me... the other sitting up my ass - here i'm thinking "fkn great... wheres the lube". i tried to turn right at a set of lights to see if they followed - and they did..

20 meters up the road he puts his lights on... i turn the car off whilst rolling so i come to a stop without the car running (exhaust was way to loud... and the Rotational Idle didnt help at all).. coppa gets out... bla bla bla pop bonnet - i did... his first words were.. quote: "Ahh its not everyday you see a RB25 in a S13 silvia"... fk!! get prepared for penetration..

he asks for permits and i say i only just got it out and i'm licensing it on monday (bullshit), he walks around the car and spots the brake conversion... FK !!!, the computer was all over the passenger floor... FK !!!!

i'm glad he didnt check the 2 bald stock tyres in the boot :D..

but apart from that he just said stay honest and take the car over the pits monday to have the engine registered!!

thanks ****... no sticker :tops:

what a fkn champion! - but this cop new his shit hey.

    • Sadly we have something in common, our Skyline's like blowing up electrically 😢
    • So, no videos, but, the FAB9 Elite manifold and 68mm Bosch throttle bodies are in stock, but, not the rear part of the air box The FAB9 rear airbox thingie is made with a 3" intake pipe, to suit the 3" intake pipe size of a 68mm throttle body  When they get some more in stock is currently unknown as I'm waiting for FAB9 to reply with a ETA on resupply, my assumption is they outsource their plastic printing stuff to "china", and with the current "tariff war" going on in 'Merica it could be on hold for an undisclosed time Should I pull the pin on the Intake and throttle body, and wait for the airbox?????, that's what I'm thinking... 1. Would the standard 2.75" OEM intake on the air box really be that much of a restriction compared to the 3" naturally aspirated?????? 2. If I don't get the 3" FAB9 airbox fitted at the same time as the intake and throttle body will it need a retune, when/if it eventually turns up?????? As I'm impulsive, to a fault, decisions will be made within....."what's the time now"???....let's say 12 hours......LOL
    • yeah its just so expensive nowadays and its easy to lose motivation very quickly when you start adding up the costs. I acquired the car from a collector in Melbourne and was lucky to get the opportunity to buy something already completed.  I looked at a proper resto and your paying over 300-400K for a proper one (nut and bolt) so this one to me seemed like a much better option! Car is in private storage and for serious buyers, welcome to come see it/drive it in person (photos don't do it justice). 
    • nice to see a proper resto, instead of the usual half arsed attempts where the owners wont even replace crappy floor mats
