Yeap... A pod box makes it legal in most police eyes however if they've had a bad day = defect.

I believe the rule is pod has to be fully enclosed, I figure the pod is enclosed - in the bonnet lol My pod, when I had it was fully enclosed looks cleaner anyway

Yes and if the police are reading this now i say to the two officers with the orange Typhoon. Keep up the good work defecting the morons on George st outside of town hall on Saturday nights... This city needs idiots like them sorted out the way they drive ....

Saying that, I got pulled over once when I left the gym... First thing cop asked me where were my P Plates? I told him I'm a 1/4 of a century old, I'm on my fulls and his tone just changed and all he did was give me a breathe test and off I went...

mine you, I don't have wnker sized rims, nor is my car loud. Good experience with a copper? I think so.

Just wondering...at what inch does 'wanker size' start?

I have had more good experiences with the Police than bad. Though i will cringe if i get pulled over again. Ill explain:

Took a trip to Tassie with the missus. Hired a car. In Tas they dont have signs warning you there are fixed speed cameras.

2 fines with 1 week.However when the first fine was processed in NSW it was double demrits,so i lost 9 points all up.

Then a few months later i had a small accident and copped a Neg driving fine.

So as soon as i get my car back on the rd if the Police pull me over and look under my bonnet + my driving history i will get raped for sure.

Im not a hoon on the rd but he wont know that.

I think ill get a "Ban low performance drivers,not high performance cars" sticker made and put in on my rear window.

I'd say an SAU sticker should be an advantage. We're a comparatively sensible bunch. We probably have an average age 3-4 years older than that of NS which helps. We're highly educated and good looking too.

Thank me for the latter :bunny::D

No he was just wrong.

The laws on that are VERY clear. I have them in the car now. The plate can be wherever it wants to be on the front of the car, but it has to be viewable from a 45 degree angle from the center of the car and 10m back (i think).

Alfa romeos come on the side standard too :bunny:

The pod box Must be plastic so it can crumble on impact.... i herd

Was thinking about this thread last night when traveling on William st. I wouldn't have minded some police there to tell off all those who were triple parking (and the street is 3 lanes) to chat to their mates in ridiculously dropped cars that would just go off the road because they don't have any rebound rates. Makes responsible majority of car enthusiasts look bad, making police and society automatically assume anyone with a modified car is like them... Anyways, that's my rant for the day, lol.

On our cars some Police might consider those stickers as a piss take and pull you over anyway.

well piss take it is ,it was a piss take in the mid 90's to on old v8's and just about any car,but its also a piss take taking a highly modified car out in places where you know your going to get picked on !! in all my years driving modified cars and its been 13 years,ive been defected once for over sized rims and on that time he let me off, for low end speeding but he said that he had to give me something...

it all comes down to not being a smart ass when you get pulled over.

    • This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.
    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it  
    • Good tips, I like it! 😂😂 My wife is a LOT more frugal than me so it's only me we need to worry about! A splurge to her is buying 2 pairs of socks in one visit at Kmart!
    • Haha, the appropriate response to the question "Is this new?" is "I've had this for a while.". With the unspoken small print that a while may be the time since this morning or five years ago   And to be fair I learned that from the best, i.e. my wife. Because it goes both ways.
