In more cases its me following the cop's as there is nothing better to do, and how are they gonna book you for that!

"You were following us in an unappropriate manner!" don't think so...

Pollution Control Disconnected ...I got it re-connected

Dam cops!

So yeah... they can't touch me now because everything has been approved by the transport department.... :P

Does anyone know if this would be acceptable in NSW? Also would having an Apexi Power FC & Hand Controller be an issue for defect, if pulled over?

I was driving along the great western the other day coming back from Penrith. I was sticking to the speed limit when from nowhere came a patrol car from behind me. It must have been doing at least 100 to catch up to me (in the 70 zone past kingswood train stn.) He tailed me for a few minutes even tailgating me. After that he switched lanes & sped off past me.

Nice to see my taxdollars being spent to pay such fine officers of the law. :blink:

LMAO Get use to it, the police now are more corrupt than the gangster days... You do realise you can pay off a cop, I was in QLD and got pulled over for speeding in my Truck, would have lost my licence, but flash 500 bigones in front of his eyes, and off I go!

:rofl:

cant imagine it would work for all of them, but i'm sure most of them would take it!

always getting pulled over and warned about being defected for doing absolutely nothing wrong.... Fookstick coppers.... makes me want to get my moneysworth when they are not around..... heheheheheheheheheh!

ie what they dont know wont hurt them!!!!

Oh yeah they discriminate on who you are, what your occupation is, where you come from etc..... its hardly a fair system!

do you have a limited amount of time between being issued the defect(by the cop) and having to report to the EPA(where you get it cleared)?

I was defected twice by the same copper in two weeks!! The first defect notice wasn't even due yet!!

:O

ive been pulled over about 16 times in the past 2 months for no reason. they just check my license and rego and breath test me. they check if i have a record or wateva and then send me on my way. best thing to do is cooperate and not be a smart ass as i am becoming. but you cant help it sometimes. they just get on your nerves. ive only ever been pulled over for a defect once in parramatta (and whoevers from around dere would know dat da cops are ruthless there) and once in brighton le sands for doing a burnout at the lights that turn onto the main road across da beach dere. overall as a skyline driver you just have to accept da fact that cops are hunting for p platers driving done up or high pwred cars.

That guy seems like a pain.

I gather by your username + tabs your a girl?

That's pretty full on, especially putting in the H-Pattern and the light defect.

C'mon <_<

Also, last week my dad and I drove back his R33 GTST from Melbourne Airport to Sydney (Central Coast).

Saw 7 police cars in total..

Constantly doing 120km/h in 110km/h zones. Only got stared at.

We were on a road doing 120 in a 100 zone (it changes throughout the way up.. from 110 to 100, to 110 etc..)

Saw a Highway patrol car blended in, it was too late.. (Female driver)

Didn't turn around.. :P

  • 8 years later...

hi i just wanted to know if you guys get pulled over for no reason, like for defects or whatever, or do the cops have certain requirements to be met before they pull you over

This needs to be resurrected - and I wished I didn't have to report this - honestly.

* HWP officer

* Stationed at Hurstville of late

* Tattoos down her L arm

* Penchant for defecting JDMs

* She's caught at least 4 guys with her li'l thingy that measures 100mm off the ground - and that's what gets her going.

* She's confrontational and won't listen to reason.

If pulled over on, north or south of the M5, try and stop with your front wheels on a hump - and that's for starters...

I get followed by certain anal members of my local hwp, but i have only been pulled over three times, all for speeding, 1 warning 2 fines.

All three times complimented on my car. I keep my car exterior fairly stock bar stickers and exhaust to annoy slow drivers in my area.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
