just heard on the radio the police blocked off a car park on the gold coast detaining over 300 cars for over 4 hours until each car was inspected for modifications. i also heard some of these cars were confiscated. they handed out heaps of defect notices too. anyone from SAU caught up in this? please give us the true story!

whoa tru shit. Lucky me i had to study for my exams. was this at that broadwater place?

[BelGarion]

that sux how they can do that. fair enough if your illegal modifications can harm other motorists, or become a distraction, but if its something tiny and all it does if kill some trees, who cares.

i got home at 10:30 and was gonna head in, but i was just too wrecked from studying all week so went home and crashed.

the bust is on page 3 of the bulletin today tho. poor guys caught up in it I had a mate that got caught up in one in ernest a couple years ago, he was just passing through too, but cops decided he was part of the crew doin burnouts and what not (in his 4wd subaru station wagon *Cough*)

These mass defect thinks completely suck :

I was there around 10 and saw it blocked off with people stuck inside. The paper said one guy got done for "illegal air filter" umm are pods & unifilters illegal? What about BOVs?. They went way over the top.

Were they being as tight as NSW polices with defects or most of the cars with slight mods (like only exhausts or FMIC) get by??

Would a engineers report on all mods on the car have been of any use in this circumstance? (Anyone inside with a report still get defected?)
