114:1 afr's....damn smooth your runnin rich :(....man that sucks, your a little over the limit. Are you going to contest it...i know its pretty hard to get done for that due to the precise instructions on how theyre supposed to test. Such as the open area rule etc....hope it all works out, if not do a josh and change the rego to a different name lmao :D

If it pulled 114db ..

a) there is something funny going on.. and they ****ed up the test procedure..

B) you installed a straight pipe recently and/or jet engine.

Mine old R33 pulled 90db.. and my car wasn't loud, but you could hear it. Every 3db is double the loudness.

a) I said to the cop that the hand held tests werent accurate and he admitted that. So I take the result with a grain of salt. :D

B) correct, has been for awhile now.

If tested properly under normal conditions I would say it would be less... give or take?

Also, he asked why my rear bar was badly burnt... I had no idea why... exhausts are hot I guess :(

    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
    • For DBA, check out their guide table here. https://dba.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Direct_Replacement-Guide-2021.2.pdf   Additionally they have some other guides and info on how to make sure you choose the right pad.
    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
