Hi ALL,

There must be a blitz on in Wollongong tonight. Saw probably 10 cars get pulled over in about 15kms then as I was heading home to avoid disaster it happened.

I was packing it so bad ...

I've just had the following done to my car:

*A turbo back zorst with a split dump and a fairly big cannon muffler on it (no way it would pass any test) = defect

*A pod filter which luckily I put in a fully enclosed heat shield and CAI = defect anyway

*Cross over style FMIC kit ( so there is a hole in chassis now) = defect

*A re-flash of the standard ecu. = defect if tested

^^ all the afore mentioned modifications didn't bother him in the slightest, the only thing that he was worried about was whether or not I had a atmospheric BOV ... which luckily I don't I've got the standard one back on there.

After going over my cars engine bay for quite a few minutes and some arse kissing on my behalf the fella that pulled me over let me off and told me to take my car straight home.

I really didn't like police all that much b4 but after 29t I think I might have had a change of heart.

Now to the point of this thread...

Anyone else get pulled over tonight for a random breath test in Wollongong??? :whistling:

Street-level crime and anti-social behaviour targeted during Operation Mega Vikings

Thursday, 14 Feb 2008 05:20am

New South Wales Police will start a three-day state-wide blitz at all 80 local area commands across the state cracking down on street-level crime, anti-social behaviour and public order management.

Operation Mega Vikings is an intelligence-driven high-visibility policing operation running continuously over three days starting at 8am today and ending 6am on Sunday, 17 February.

The operation will be conducted in two phases on each of the nominated days. During phase one officer’s will target fingerprint and DNA suspects, high-risk offenders, licensed premises and any associated anti-social behaviour.

The evening or second phase will target crime hotspots, licensed premises, public order, high-risk offenders, bail compliance and street-level criminals.

Deputy Commissioner, Field Operations, Dave Owens, said that considerable resources will be utilised during the co-ordinated high-visibility operation.

“This is also about reassuring the community police are serious about reducing crime and enabling people to get out and about and enjoy themselves without being subjected to people acting irresponsibly,” Deputy Commissioner Owens said.

“The message is quite simple: if you engage in criminal or anti-social behaviour, it will not be tolerated and you will be arrested, charged and put before the courts.

“Each Local Area Command will have specialist and general duties officers working around the clock over the next three days. These officers will be complemented by additional State and Commonwealth agencies,” Deputy Commissioner Owens said.

wow lucky kent lol how does an enclosed pod can be a defect? cos i have mine enclosed..so should be legal & how would the cop know if ur ecu is reflashed :S

I was lucky enough to be pulled over by an officer looking to buy a GTR so he pulled me over to ask a few questions on what to look for and what not, i asked him whats the deal with all the defect stuff and things like that, he told me that they employ heaps of ex mechanics and car lovers and put them on duty to look for unroadworthy vechles, there job is to fine you for anything not standard and then they a suppossed to send you to EPA where they do all the tests for standard computers and all the other crap that reams you up the A-hole.

they don't know by looking if you have a reflash but if they send you to an EPA test with the exhaust and the retune I doubt very much that it would easily pass...

I don't think a reflash is technically a defect anyway, I think the law says something like 'must be unable to easily modify the state of tune' for an after market ecu to be ok, its just wether the state of tune actually will pass an emissions test is all...

ohhh and an enclosed pod can be legal ... but it has to be engineered I think and generally your car won't pass EPA with a pod either

you can still modify your car and keep it legal ...

my plan is to take all of my newly fitted piping and stuff and paint it black to make it look stock & try to get all my stuff engineered if I can.

If that dude from ignition can get his 200 engineered and registered with all the shit he has done to his car then I should be able to get my car engineered.

      I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.

      I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.

      Yet another RB Neo misfiring thread after reading all the others.

      Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.
