I understand, but if you make sure that you keep record of all instances that you have contact and what was said (I know this sounds a bit over the top, but carry a tape recorder, or even better a video camera:D) and if they step out of line go directly to their supervisor. I think the days where coppers can get away with shit are dwindling - they have to be fully accountable for their actions, no more coverups especially if you have evidence. It is a tough choice, but personally I wouldnt put up with crap on principle. No reason if you arent doing anything wrong that you should be getting hasselled. Hippy, legal lowering height is 350mm from middle of wheel hub to the top of the guard, also no part of the car should be lower than 100mm with (cant rember how many) metres of the axles(applies to larger vehicles) - but it basically means you cant get lower than 100mm. And the car must sit on the rims if the tyre deflates;) Thats from memory anyways. Dont worry about the dump hippy, its sitting waiting for you:) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/23088-defected-again-and-a-493-fine/page/2/#findComment-496353 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss*33 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I've been lucky so far - have never been pulled over!! Fingers crossed, but I guess it'll happen one day My b/f's bro got pulled over and defected in a stock N13 pulsar the other night for being too low. The cop's parting comment was " You're just lucky you don't have an import mate" - now whats with that?! :confused: Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/23088-defected-again-and-a-493-fine/page/2/#findComment-496361 Share on other sites More sharing options...
benm Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Did they put all 3 defects on the 1 defect slip? If so then you only need to pay 1 fine (atleast in nsw). If they wrote 3 different defect slips for each fault then you'll be up for 3x the $$$ Also how did they come to the conclusion that your exhaust was "too loud" ? Did they test your exhaust with a small device standing behind your exhaust as you hold the revs at 3000rpm? If they just pulled you over and said "your exhaust sounds too loud here's a defect" report them to the local cop shop.

Miss*33 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Don't worry hippy - I totally intend to use my "mysterious powers" if they try to defect me!

MADGT4 Posted August 22, 2003 Author Share Posted August 22, 2003 The reason they knew it was too low, too loud blah blah is cause when i passed my defect i put everything back on there and he goes to me "we know you put everything back on the after u passed" "your just mocking the system" he recons which is why i copped the fine. mechanically my car is A1 but no all the ****in bush bunnie fuct up shit boxes are allowed 2 drive round here and stuff but i can't drive my car round! Plus when i tell ppl that my car had been defected again they say "why its allways so neat and looked after" my reply?

Steve Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Hippy some bov are pretty big, perhaps you could hit someone with it hard enough you could kill them. Beside that, they are very useful. You could use them for pest control - throw them at rats and larger ****roaches, mormons etc. You could put it on the coffee table, after a good cleanup, and use it as a conversation peice. Be very handy if you had unwelcome visitors. You could even use it to chock your wheels if you have to change a flat, but it would be better to use a brick. It would also make a good paper weight. Perhaps you could even use it to stop air reverting through the compressor of a turbo and causing damage. Nah sorry, just being plain silly now. By the way, anybody want to buy a bov? I have a spare one - shiney and red....hmmm.

Steve Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Just had another thought, you could tie it around the neck of any kittens or little puppies (no good for big puppies) that need to be drowned.....pure bloody genius. Throw it at footballs when they get suck up in trees.... OK, I'll stop now.
