guess who got defected??

[MattR]

Yes thats rite me. On the way home from work 02/05/03 Wasent doing anything wrong. I wnt past a cop who was parked on the side of the road. She heard a pshhh sound and thought she would pull me over. First question she asked was, do a have a blow off valve. I said yes. Then she said that ALL blow off valvues are illigal. I then said that mine is standard it cam that way from the factory. She then said that NO nissan skyline from the factory cam with a blow off valve:confused: :confused: I said that it is louder because of the air filter, she said the airfilter had nothing to do wit it. She rang a police mechanic who said some blow off valves are ok but she could not tell him what mine is like. I asked to talk to the guy but she said I couldnt. I asked her to tell the guy that my blow off valve vents back into the manifold and not into the atmosphere like the illigal ones but she still said no. At this stage I am taking my car down to the Holden Hill police station 2morrow at 3pm when she said that the mechanic can look at the blow of valve is legal or not. I am not taking the risk that they will not find anything else when the find that they have made a mistake, I have taken off the turbo timer, boost guage airpod and replaced it with the box, changed the steering wheel and I am going to do the spings as well. I hope they have Egg in there faces when They see they have made a mistake

ANYONE who wantes to just be in the area of the holden hill cop shop at say around 3 would be good

Thanks Matt.

No worries mate, I will do a huge burnout out the front as a decoy

so they let you go & try & catch me -- haha.Good luck if I'm in the race car!!! Seriously though it's a joke.there was probably at least 2 cars that went by while you were on the side of the road with excessive smoke/rust etc but they want to hassle you with your extremly well maintained & good looking car.

I went for a cruise with Nate in the EVO & was unintentionally involved with a whole group of very naughty blow off valve equipped jap cars who liked to hear lots of psshhtt sounds all the way down West tce & beyond.We were of course very well behaved(not) & proceeded to race most of the way to Semaphore.Of course the well behaved drivers at the front got pulled over on the esplanade & had to explain to the nice policemen that it wasn't our fault our cars were so fast & we would join AA(Accelerators Anonymous) first thing in the morning, & promised to keep any phhfft noises to a bare minimum in the future( in other words within 100m of taking off) & would obey all reasonable road traffic laws to the best of our ability.

I would also like to add that as designated driver Nate did a fantastic job of handing out a big can of whoop-ass to a couple of WRXs & other assorted machines that dared to pull up next to him & was very polite to the coppers who were impressed with the car & let us go with a smile & a wave.Murphys law - if I was driving he probably would have had to bail me out the next morning - but then again - you needn't take a gun to a knife fight!

Sir, you are a legend

[TIMMMAYYY]

Knives in gunfights are great munro... most people dont know how 2 use a gun..

It's amazing at the arrogancy of cops. Erica got the same deal. She got reamed by this fat bitch of a cop who wouldn't listen to a word she said becuase of the chance hte cop might have been proven wrong.

Sorry 2 hear about your misfortune with the cop's being ****wits MattR. Go shove that defect in their face.

[Revhead]

A mate of mine who drives an MX6 Turbo was pulled over one night by a cop. The cop went over the car making comments like "ooh, no AFM, what computer are you running?" and "that catch can is illegal", "nice dump pipe" and things like that. He seemed to really know his stuff. He even did a line-of-sight test on the pillar-mounted guages (they passed), rather than just looking at them and slapping a defect.

My friend ended up having a bit of a chat to the cop who apparently is into hipo cars himself and is a regular at the drags and drove away with a list of things to fix - atmo BOV, catch can and the exhaust being too loud - but did not defect him for anything. No fine, no points, no conviction.

Legend.

[CheekyR32]

Goss dude, we all need it! What happened exactly with the defect? And tell us all about the new car - prefer a couple of pics too if you have em,

C'mon, give us the good oil!

[Munro]

It's fast - damn fast.Needs a good wash though!!!

[Pawley]

and some traction control!

[Nightcrawler]

hehe very impressive numbers from Matt's new toy indeed! But yes, I agree with Paul, it's got traction issues written all over it .... something to do with 308 REAR WHEEL KILOWATTS in a 1,240kg car .... OMFG!!!

[whatsisname]

1240kg = S15 Silvia & I'm guessing S13/180SX.

[hippy]

oh come on ... not revealing what u got is counter productive .. cmon

[whatsisname]

Ignore my S13/180SX comment above.

But tell me how do you get an R32 GTS-t to weight only 1,240kg!? I'm sure they weight more than that!

[PHAT 33]

well done about the defect mattr hope she will learn for next time atleast some one got sum back for us for once

[Steve]

I'd like to know what is under the hood. Matt, where are you Matt? Been a bit quiet lately - stop holding out
