Well it's tomorrow. Theres been a fair bit of stuff going on with this. Long story short I should only be looking at a fine now, a max of $2000 but more likely $100 (?) + $80ish for having it at the stage where the police brief was made. Most importantly I should not be getting any demerit points. I really couldn't give a rats ass about money so it's fine by me. It'll still be my first defect offence and next time i'll get my car taken for the 48hours. Bassically If I continue with it to trial they want to change the charge to something which will have a worse outcome for me should I lose.

I guess if your going to get a new shim for your diff be aware you may be ass raped by the po-po unless it is exactly the same thickness as factory :P I also guess your shim will never be allowed to wear out! Lets make them out of diamonds or something.

I respect your decision to give in at this point but I really wish someone would go all the way, and prove them wrong for once.

It seems they can just postpone and postpone and keep throwing offers at you depending on how good your case is.

Sounds like that crappy tv show 'deal or no deal'

$300 fine and most importantly 0 points. I'm keeping my licence :P

The judge said I didn't seem happy about it when the police prosicutions read out the court brief so I did get to say it was a load of shit(not in those words). Probably didn't help. But just hearing the court brief, the way the cop who raped me worded what happened and a couple lies from it pissed me off.

I just read this whole thread start to finish.

It is NOT right the shit cops get away with. Guilty until proven innocent hey...(along with plenty of $$$) It just makes my blood boil.

The amount of crap I have seen cops do (speeding, spinning wheels on take of without lights or sirens in a built up area, not using indicators...the list goes on) and they have the hide to pick on people solely for the kind of car they drive.

I just wish they would spend more time and effort getting the truly unsafe heaps of s#!t off the road instead of just being cocks.

You know how they have that 'report a smokey vehicle' thing? I once reported a cop car which had heaps of black smoke coming out the exhaust :( It was quite amusing.

Nice work!!!!!!

I'm sure there are plenty of us out there with only 1 point to spare, so you have made us all proud.

Good to see a Skyline driver.. ahh win.. for lack of a better term.

I just read this thread start to finish took a bit of reading.. and I agree, there is no way I would drive an excel they just so happen to be the worst car in the world. lol. I have a 32, and I also have an old N13 pulsar, it has bald tyres on the back purely because one went flat on the way home once, and I dont drive it much anymore, but if I go around a roundabot it squeels like a locka. I would laugh real hard if some stupid cop wrote me a ticket for a locka. Pretty sure, the judge might even laugh. Wouldnt need evidence :)

Aanyways... good to se you are now stress free...

Take it easy.

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4

      Troubleshooting - motor wont turn over

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I was chatting with an ex SAU person who is involved in chooning euros now. He was saying the factory cars like Audi VW etc have something like 2000 tables that the ECU uses for getting everything "just right". Compare that back to any aftermarket ECU, and you'd be hard pressed to surpass 50 lookup tables. Even the Ford Barra engine has a few hundred lookup tables to run it (and they're still working some tables out too!)

      Grab a temp probe, and probe each exhaust inlet runner with it sitting idling. Each one should be pretty darn close to the same temp. If you've got some reading higher or lower than the others, it's likely either air flow isn't equal, or your injectors aren't equal to each other.   The other things to check, is from the wiring changes that were made, were any earth's or grounds moved/changed.   Lastly, for the strut brace issue. It's not perfect, but can you get away with slipping a washer or two under the strut brace to raise it, and it still clean the bonnet? If you can, work out the height you need, that the motor can't torque up into, and get a spacer made for each side.
