4. cops should target skylines. why? most of them are deemed unroadworthy because people start to ILLEGALLY mod them and as such are a soft target for them.
um

Well I happen to agree with the comment.

When people do midifications to cars which affect the structural integrity and other safety features, I would consider that a problem.

Every week there are new threads where people complain about being defected for safety reasons.

I don't see a problem with defective vehicles being taken off the road.

Personally, I agree with that statement too.

How many people on this forum have bothered to get there cars properly engineered, not many I bet. If we don't mod our cars properly than we just make our cars easy targets for police.

This is something us old school street machiners went through years ago, in the end it's not that hard to get a car properly engineered, and the desighn rules are actually pretty flexible in regards to what you can do to your car, so the best thing the skyline fraternity can do to keep the cops of our backs is to make sure we mod our cars properly and get them engineered.

Stupid old clueless fool. Its not the car, its the friggin ATTITUDE of the friggin driver(s) that cause the problem(s). I've been driving on our 3rd world country roads for at least 15 years now and I finally gather up enough balls to go out and buy a R33, why? because I know 'P' platers CANT handle pissin into a pot talkin about handlin a high performance import..... Grow up kiddoes.

In a way I dont agree with the cops pickin on Skylines, Ive been in mine for a month or two now, I've driven past them everywhere and they havent bothered even lookin at me. Peoples: Dont make ya Skylines attention seekers! leave ya GREDDY stickers off the side of ya rides, dont act like cop-baits and you wont be. But then again, you get fools n idiots in every part of our society

      Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3

      It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
