Fine, Cannary And Epa :(

[Phantom32]

If your a poor uni student you shouldnt have purchased a car, and illegally modified if you cant afford to take it back to standard. Many people have got em. No point crying poor

cmon dude, thats a lil harsh. I'm sure alot of ppl out there are uni students and drive lines. Its all about the passion for the car. I go to Uni too, work part time, and sometimes i can't afford the stuff that happens to my car, but at the end of the day, its my passion and nothings gonna stop me from doin wat i wanna do.

Not ridin ya, just thought the comment was a tad unfair

[R31Nismoid]

I'd say that it wasnt unfair. Read these forums every day and you'll understand what im talking about in an instant.

Everyone loves to jump on here and cry about "the police"

All the are doing is thier job.

They care - because its the law

There are no if's or but's.

you dont see me on here whinging i was fully EPA'd 3 months ago and now have to do an engine conversion...

why? Cause i knew it was illegal what id done.

Its plain as day comments like these

i dont even understand these rules against modifications... why does the government care about this stuff... its not hurting n e one.. they need to re prioritise...

If people dont understand, then the following applies

1) dont sook when you get reamed

2) find out what is and what is not legal and go about mods that way

3) illegally mod your car then pay consequences if you get caught

All the info is freely avaliable.

If you drive ur modified skyline near knox you desirve to get caught as everyone knows peticock is always around there.

hmm .. this si the reason why i keep ALL of my stock parts when ever i "upgrade" ... and i was missing two stock parts when i bought the car (airbox and boost solenoid).. so i went out of my way to aquire these items... sure they sit in my garage and dont get used... but i have them there as security incase i do perchance get "done" for my modifications...

-Ruffels

and R31Nismoid ... lol not having a go mate.. but, sure they are Laws... but its not like putting an illegal modification on your car is a haneous crime... i put an atmo bov on last week, sure its illegal, but i don't see myself as a criminal, however i do acknowledge that they are against the law and take full responsibility if i get caught!

[mikymouse]

that's a bit harsh R31Nismoid. have some compassion. sure it's the law, but this is also a public forum and people need to vent their discontent somewhere. it's better to "whinge" on a forum rather than take out your anger in a violent manner - which some are known to do.

Don't worry about Ash, he's just twisted and bitter that he was bent over and reamed by the EPA like he was in a dark alley during the Mardi Gras.

Thats harsh Ash, i'm a poor uni student too.

...But you probably wouldn't say it to anyones face...

Well if you were simply driving past knox on the way home or something and got caught then its just bad timing i guess. But if you were doing knox laps setting off ur BOV every few seconds then thats a different story.

[doxximus]

i am in agreeance with the nismoid

and in terms of that, yes, it is a public forum, which means other people can state their opinion of whatever anyone else says/vents/"whinge's" about

[saff_cossie]

Just got an on the spot fine, a cannary and EPA booking... Great. I knew i should of stayed out of Knox. N e way i have only have 7 days to get a roadworth cert. can n e one help.. what would be really good if someone knew someone that did special roadworths.?

Other wise im going to need to aquire the following parts for my r33 gts-t...

If anyone has them for sale or hire.. eh.

Stock steering wheel

springs to get my car above legal height.

2 x front headlights( just the glass if it that is possible ) i have eyelids and they are not comming off in a hurry.

2 x stock rims with legal rubber. or 2x   255 x 17 tyres with leagal tread...

Im just a poor uni student and this roadworth is bad enough. The EPA is gonna be so much more effort/cash. Does anyone know how to get out of an EPA.?

I was thinking unregistering the car and getting it regestered in another name. would that work? <_<

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I agree there should be somewhere to vent your anger although not bad mouth the police (which no one has).

But.........

The above post goes beyond that. As a club SAU is trying to establish itself as a reputable club with a base of enthusiasts. If people started replying to this thread with answers to the two questions in bold above, what does that say about the club? We all know Police read this forums.

IMO Ash was to the point and has pointed out valid points. If the post was put up asking for just stock parts for the car, it would be different.

My 2c guys.

[mook1]

yeah points taken guys. My bad... n e way just a quick question about RWC's if i may. Do you have to have all the same type of tyres on all 4 wheels.?

What was exactly on the canary?

Most rwc places will ignore 90% of the crap the cops write on canarys as most is bs.

[R31Nismoid]

...But you probably wouldn't say it to anyones face...

bet i would

Anyway, yeah i might sound harsh... So be it.

As you said this is also a public forum, im allowed to say what i want also and point out a few key things.

There is however a time and place for everything. Police read the forums, talking about illegal things like dodgy RWC isnt the smartest of ideas and it makes SAU look bad, let alone is someone is stupid enough

Your lucky the thread hasnt been edited to be honest.

At the end of the day, break the law... expect to get punished for it.

As Alan (saff) pointed out. If this was a "yeah i got done, has someone got stock parts" thats a lot different to "Can someone get me a dodgy RWC"

I'll give a hand anywhere i can, ive always helped out anyone where i can in this club

[Phantom32]

i'm not saying that it was harsh that mooks was pulled over and reamed - sh*t, my cars still not on the road. I've copped engineers, RWC the whole she-bang at once and it taken me 3 months to save up enough money for the paperwork.

The only comment harsh was the one about the poor uni student shouldn't buy a car he if he can't afford to put it back to stock. We don't buy our cars in anticipation of having to de-mod it every 3 months or so. I'm sure alot of import drivers out there are uni students trying to make ends meet and have a nice car in the meantime.

But like aforementioned - mod the car illegaly and expect to get done. Just hope that your lucky enough not to.

Ease up, shit happens

[R31Nismoid]

If you arent "anticipating" it... your kidding yourself.

[DJ_L3ThAL]

ash, leave my old car alone!!!

[predator]

bloody homosexual car.. who the hell riced that thing up anyhow..

[DJ_L3ThAL]

argh! *DJ_L3ThAL slaps predator around a little with a large trout*

[R31Nismoid]

LOL

Get back to this weekends preparation you muppet.

You'd better be all organised come Sat arvo
