HUSTLR: this is going to be a legal nightmare.... cops already hassle mod cars.... and now they can issue notices at their own discretion removign 2 points in the spot in effect from people whos exhausts are "deemed" to loud....... imagine the abuse of power here...... points and fine... and potentially a lot of exhausts that ARE legal getting picked on.

Do yourself a favour and get an engineers report. if anyone wants engineers recommendations feel free to pm me and i will give you details.

Xrsist - simply a case of knowing how to deal with cops who harrass you. Obviously an engineers report is not a be all end all solution, if you get pulled into a big defect station and they have testing equipment on site then ur up the creek.

my 200sx measured a healthy 108.5db :lol: - I was fined $250 and defected at a station, got it cleared, put it all back on and obtained a engineers report which declares your car complies to specific ADR's.

The main benifit of an engineers report is in a normaly case of cops pulling you over, when they check your rego it comes up with a "this is a registered modified vehicle" statement which 99% of the time makes them think twice about hassling you.

Bear in mind the majority of cops defect based on what they *think* not what they *know* to be illegal - the fact you have gone to the trouble of engineering your car keeps them at bay....

This is from experience......... i will be getting an engineers report shortly to prevent issues with my local constabulary who already know me on a first name basis :mad:

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
