Getting defected for illegal mods.. yes ok...
Setting up the testing at an event that promotes taking hoon behaviour off the street is where the problem is.
create another bonnet latch, with ur factory one snip most the wires until its only held in place by one thread.. then tell the cop u dont know where ur bonnet latch thing is, when he goes to find/open it he will pull it and it will snap. Then hopefully he will feel bad and realise you can no longer open your bonnet as he has destroyed your car (it may catch fire).
RE customs looks after many members here (including mine).
I have not heard any bad things about them (against forum rules to criticise businesses in open forums on this site anyways)...
So in my opinion they definately can be trusted.
GTR engine rebuilds, i think every1 knows, are very expensive!
the rest of the Q's i cannot answer.
Make up some water filled seat covers, which are connected from seat to seat. That way if the dude trys to tazer you he will get some electric loving aswell.
I went like 2 years ago, and ive been itching to go back.. it is INSANE! As gdogzgtr, these supercharged and turbo charged monsters sound unbelievable when they are screaming past you on the water going 200+km/h. The paint jobs etc of the boats aswell are amazing. Awesome weekend all round.
Wholey shit man, thats full on... tazer guns and all! wow.. Did you pass the info about where these guys saw ur car to the cops, are they looking for it or anything?
Sorry to hear about this man, the whole situation is f**ked up.
As i have said before Adam... you are a lucky, lucky man! Awesome pics mate... what happened to the pic of the canadian underwear model!!??
Would be hard to top a weekend like that I would think!! You have done what many people only dream of doing. Top effort mate! If you happen to get pit access in Melbourne im coming with you lol.
Yer and when you use an angle grinder on ur plastic front bar to cut it back to fit the cooler make sure u wear shit shoes.. as the plastic that flicked off stuck to my shoe burnt a hole in it (and my socks) and burnt my foot...
so add on another $150 for shoes
$10 for socks
30 cents for a bandaid!
If you are not confident, its not worth doing it yourself... looking back on it i would have paid $250 to get it installed. Not that difficult, but alot of f**king around.. choping fins etc etc. always little problems that pop up that frustrates you to the shit
