I just don't understand why people keep complaining about getting pulled over for nothing.

I've had over 15 cars with 90% of them turbos.

3 of them skylines.

a 200sx.

2 Liberty RS Turbo's with exhaust louder than most skylines can ever muster up.

Never ONCE have I been pulled over for anything other than RBT.

NSW or QLD.

Never.

they don't do it for no reason.

I have been pulled into a road side breath test and the car had a going over. I was let off as i was actually sober for a change :w00t: . I'm actually more worried about them than the random pull over these days as the car is fairly quiet and doesn't draw a lot of attention (unless doing tight turns in a carpark) but is still easily defectable if someone has half an idea.

Maybe that's why your not complaining? I don't complain about starvation cause I eat a lot...

see the very simple point I'm trying to make here?

It was in reference to people saying they get pulled over for doing nothing.

It's never nothing.

it's never because you have a skyline.

it's always going to be for something.

example.

ride height.

general rule being that it can't be lower than 100mm at lowest point.

but that rule is with occupants in all seats and car fueled.

4 people and full of fuel.

I just don't believe people when they say they were pulled over and hassled and defected for nufink!

I got done on Monday, I was heading to a mates place around 2pm, doing 100 on the freeway (limit was 110, I am still on Green Ps)... He would have had a few reasons to pull me over, the back plate had fallen off, but through our discussion, and how he only checked for the front plate after looking at my license, I don't think he knew I was a P plater... That being the case, I would have appeared to be doing under the speed limit...

Other then that, defected for the defectable items on my car...

That's enough reason in my eyes...

But I have still been pulled over 3 times since December, twice, nothing happened...

The subs are in the garage and the amp is broken... undergoing some re-wiring right now...

soooooo no...

PS: My alarm in the morning is set to bro level, I'm way past that now :ermm:

i have been pulled over many times for no reason at all simply because i drive a skyline and because they see it has a type of hoon car so dont go saying that we must be doin sumthing wrong becsause that is not always the case.my skyline looks dead standard and they still pull me over. The police do not have to have a reason to pull u over as ive found out off my bro. if a car looks sus or anything like that they will pull u over

well if your car looks sus (or probably it is you in the car who looks sus), then there is the reason to pull you over.

wot me driving home by myself on a freeway in my stock looking skyline at at 7.30 pm in my work clothes is sus???? mind you not speeding, keeping in the left lane and my car isnt loud at all. pretty f**ked up how i was the only person he deciced to pull over aye! especialy wen all the other cars around wer commodores and camrys

if you honestly think that we get pulled over for doing sumthing wrong all the time then you got no idea. they will pull u over just coz u drive a "hoon" type car

records are made to be broken :)

But I think these are different kinds of records :banana:

and oh yeah, I got pulled over again on Friday :banana: heading home, 1am, still in a suit from work...

were those commodores and camry's modified like your car? probably not hey!

anyway.. records on the computer can last a life time. not just 2 months.

incase u didnt read my previous post my car looks dead stock from the outside, no large canon muffler or anything like that, if u looked at it u would think it was stock

and as i stated before, i was informed by my bro who is a cop that they are normally kept on there for 2 months and if the car has major problems then it will be kept on there for as long as they want

so to answer my question those commodores and camry's weren't modified the same as your car were they? it doesn't matter if your car has a cannon or not. modified is modified.

your 'bro' doesnt know much then does he. if a record is made on computer then its kept on there for a life times.

word from my best mate, is the same as [200]

its there for life, it comes up as an "event" which stays on computer system/file

such as

1. victim of assault

2. traffic infringement

3. defect

4. etc

I have never been harassed in the 32 nor the GTR which has big white stripes down the side.

They will only pull you over if you are doing something wrong.

Stick to the rules and you will be fine.

Skylines need more middle eastern appearenced owners.

then they would "ALL" be stopped and checked, and I would feel less discriminated against for not getting hassled.

should I wear a cap? a white one? and have it backwards or something?

should I leave facial hair in strange designs?

Can those of you lucky people who get pulled over all the time give me some clues as to what I should do to be with the "IN" crowd?

get a hektik haircut and perm the long bit at the back?

i got harrassed once

couldn't believe it, I was doing nothing wrong.... all i was doing was going 90 in a 60 zone on bald semi slicks in a low car, with modifications

I swear i was doing nothing wrong.

    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
