As some of you know, I was driving round on the cruise with a yellow sticker. Well today I went to the pits to get rid of it and was failed!

The reason I got the sticker was for my air filter, FACTORY bov, and rims being too big.

All these items were fine, but now I have to take off my window tint, make a better bracket for my filter, more sturdy mounts on my exaust, take the tint off my indicators and a whole heep of other stupid shit!!

Theres already a bracket, but aparently theres too much play(bugger all).

He also wants me to remove the air intake that fits into the standard filter.

My rims are cool though, only just. Bout 4mm under the standard rolling diametre. Phew.

i bloody hope i dont get pulled over then, BOV, loose filter (no hose clamp or mounting) wheels are bigger, etc etc.

tint is gonna be expensive to fix, but more sturdy exhaust mounts etc thats just plain crap.

didnt you use the "it came from japan like this mister" argument?

That's bullshit, I feel sorry for you Hicks, you must have caught the wrong guy at the wrong time. Friend of mine got his car over the pits with a NOS fogger system and a shitload of other stuff, it just depends which person you get, but I'm sure if the cops want to pick on me then I'll have a list as long as you arm of shit that is illegal.

Hope you don't have too many more hassels, sounds like you've had a tough time of it lately.

See'ya

Well well well...

You should have gone to east perth licensing. I had 3 yellow's removed on my sonata for trivial things like yours, tyres mismatched, silver wipers, too loud exhaust... heaps of stuff...

ALL PASSED fine... :( The east perth blokes rock, and they know what pricks traffic cops can be!

Strick, I wish I could agree, but I got stuck at East Perth and was given the run around by them from 7:30 am in the morning when they open to 4:20 in the afternoon to get my car over. All because of an aftermarket front bar. would you believe that crap.

it was the most utter Bull i have ever been through. I have lodged a complaint about them because they should have given me all the things that were wrong and then sent me on my way, but they claimed they could not make a decision so I had to go to the big heads located at welshpool who will make a decision and give me a permit, blah blah,

the whole friggin day.. Jamie at east perth can go to hell. he can go to hell and die (cartman)

HICKS, mate i dont know you but goddamn man, i understand this crap. i saw the bunkiest pieces of crap go through while i sat there with a 96 smick GTST

This is off topic but if anyone knows someone getting rid of a cheap amp (2 channel) with over 300 RMS can you get them to email me ([email protected]) like under $500

I think you should try east perth i had a yellow on my r33 and i got it off with heaps of stuff on my car the guys name is inspector miles i dont know what the rest of them are like that work there but this guy was more than fair he let me get away with a EBC after market ecu and gave me permits for everything else

you may find you will have to take ALL the tint off.

wednesday i failed because i had sorta dark tint on the rear window and rear quarters but none on the front windows.. unfortunately i had to take the tint off the whole car :D

also had to replace the tie rod bush, a few minutes works

got it passed this morning though.. she now rides with [RADIUM] plates :-)

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
