I got RBT'd the other day - i actually drove past them as they were setting up and on my way back i got pulled over and the cop said "hay mate, saw you driving past us before and you had your fog lights on - but ill let you off because its a bit damp." (At night time as well) - I’m a Green P plater driving a R34 at 11:00 on a sat night in castle hill.....that’s not too bad i recon.... As said before - it’s all up to your attitude, and I’m pretty sure the cops are used to me in castle hill. Only ever been pulled over once and that’s because the cop was curious, every other time was a RBT set up.

Also with the pods - Can’t you get an engineering slip for them? - so the law says that it’s bad for the enviro and its noisy - ok - fine, take it to the RTA and have a Db test and a emissions test and get them to clear you - that will shut them up.... (Obviously I’m guessing most of you wouldn’t even past that test anyway) my car is stock as a rock so this would work for me.

But seriously hasn’t anyone else heard of a Cops asking “do you have a certificate/permit etc for that?”

I have been driving around with my foggies on for about a year. Have been pulled over many times for rbt's and random checks and never had an issue.

I drive a 04 Liberty gt

Well you should get done for it. It's bloody annoying for other road users. What you don't realise, or maybe you do and just don't care, is that light is cumulative. Your low driving lights or fog lights or whatever might be on "low beam" but when there are 4 of them it adds up to something much more than what is permitted for low beam.

Apart from that, I'll admit it was a bit of a sexy look when it was rare, back in the early 90's say, but now it's not sexy or cool. It's old.

I'll admit, Lapa on a sunday night near the docks does go off.

There was one weekend when i spotted Loz there, and a Cop helicopter came down -.-..

Dunno if it was a scare tactic, but we jumped into our cars and 20 of us just left, leaving the other 100 behind.. Dunno what happened after because when we pulled out there was about 14 undercovers / marked / HW patrol cars parked up gearing up.

Lucky we left, but i think Lapa is a no go zone now, true you want to go out with your mates just to kick back and have a laugh, look at the scenery and all.. but the cops enforce the law.. they can basically do what they want man, and theres nothing you can do about it.

Theres a limit, understandable. But its only gonna' get worse for imports if this retalliation stays up.

Ive had my fair few confrontations with the cops aswell, but theres nothing you can do.

Stay out of Lapa man, and George Street, and Orange Grove ( Krispy Kremes ) and Brighton .. ..

It sucks you copped a ticket for fogs, but whats written is whats law.. You had good intentions, yet they dont care. Pricks..

Real sports cars don't even have fog lights anymore. You're right, they were only cool back in the early 90's.

These days, seeing fog lights just tell me that I'm approaching an econobox or family hauler. If it's quick, then I know it's a tarted up econobox / family hauler.

I should get booked but the point im making is that many coppers would rather give Skyline owners grief then bother a liberty (which middle aged men mainly drive)

Why do you think i sold my R33 ?

lots of f**k heads on foreshore road

lots of fatalities

lots of cop

you go there and get booked ....... pricelesss

f**k me if im stupid but you are more so

were u one of those f**k heads on foreshore rd

    • Yeah - My key still does the chime thing. I followed the procedure but it didn't activate on the (identical) third set of keyfob that I had. I vaguely remember the alarm saying you can only pair two keys with it. Now that I've dug it up, it appears that you very much can pair keyfobs to the alarm system. (which are the fobs I use to unlock the car). I have successfully diverted the thread and can probably not use the OEM keyfob ever again unless I use the aftermarket alarm and attempt to pair the OEM keyfob to it. Which might just work, or not :D. I definitely used the nissan method and not the aftermarket alarm method.
    • What makes it worse is that Nissan made keys in the same style, for example R34 and Stagea, but they work at different frequencies or something like that. So they look the same but the remotes are not interchangeable. I learned that from some guy selling aftermarket blank keys.
    • Does your door chime work when you have the key in the lock and open the door? I've had that disabled because it's f**king annoying and it is one thing that messes with the pairing. Because now the car doesn't detect key in ignition anymore and the slide-key-in-and-out sequence does not trigger the pairing mode anymore. The service manual has a section on the various bits involved in doing the syncing. I presume it'll be similar between Stagea and R34.
    • Agree, but meh, I think is is based more on LOLS than actually apples to apples, like, who would have thunk a turbo 4 cylinder would not beat a NA 4 cylinder  I think with just basic N/A mods, like a exhaust and tune, it would be equal to the Mini in its current form, maybe I know my current 2.5 would "chop the mini" as the midrange now has a night and day difference in power delivery compared to the tuned 2.0, by around 20kwatw and 30nm from around 2k rpm "ish"....... I'm kinda hoping that they do a N/A build, either with the MZR 2.0 or with whatever they decide to use If I recall correctly they did talk about K swapping one a while ago
    • Can't see that being a thing.
