[typevu]

The guy that signed me off didnt really care didnt check anything and was a bit odd... convo went something like this:

Me: Hello, here to get this signed off.

Cop: So you have made the repairs?

Me: Yeah.

Cop: ARE YOU SURE?

Me: Uhh... Yeah. Cars outside if you want to check.

Cop: Uh huhhh...

Cop: *begins to fill in form*

Cop: Whens your Regency appointment?

Cop: ARE YOU SURE?

Me: Yeah...

ROFL! i gotta save that

Okay guys. I just read through 18 pages of this.

Is it really as bad as it seems? I'm a P plater currently and will be driving a 33 soon...

Engine Mods

*TO3-4 turbo

*G-ready plenum

*Injectors

*Headers

*GTR intercooler

*GTR fuel pump

*Oil cooler

*Double plated clutch

*Up graded brakes

*3 1/2 inch exhaust system

Interior

*Recaro bucket seat

*Grey dash

*Turbo timer

*Boost gauge

*Pioneer sound system

Exterior

*400R full body kit

*17 inch white rims

*Tinted windows

*No dents and good paint

That's the specs there for the car.

I have to drive down Grand junction road to Old port road 5 days a week.

Am I gonna get defected on my first day?

Also. Exactly how much does an engineers certificate cost? Would it be expensive for the list of modifications there?

Currently drive an MZ20 but it's a dead sleeper, cops pull me over and don't even know it's a turbo.

To get the said car up there through regency, exactly what would I have to take off it?

Awaiting your opinions...

Cheers,

Aleks

urrrhhhhhhhh everything?

Okay guys. I just read through 18 pages of this.

Engine Mods

*TO3-4 turbo > stock

*G-ready plenum > stock

*Injectors

*Headers > stock

*GTR intercooler piping must be neat and hole cut must be neat and sealed off with primer/paint/sealer to prevent rust etc..

*GTR fuel pump

*Oil cooler depending on how it was done and if it has braided lines they must be ADR approved

*Double plated clutch

*Up graded brakes all rotors/pads are fine, depending if the calipers have been upgraded?

*3 1/2 inch exhaust system Must be under 90db last time i checked so could be wrong (replace muffler)

Interior

*Recaro bucket seat must recline and be ADR approved

*Grey dash

*Turbo timer > stock

*Boost gauge depending where it is

*Pioneer sound system

Exterior

*400R full body kit

*17 inch white rims depends on width, tyres must be on or over legal parameters (yes they sometimes check load ratings on tyres)

*Tinted windows fronts max 75%, rear 30%, most likely gonna have to remove

*No dents and good paint

That's the specs there for the car.

Am I gonna get defected on my first day? YES, haha jk depends if you're in the wrong place at the right time

Also. Exactly how much does an engineers certificate cost? Would it be expensive for the list of modifications there? to engineer oversized rims (more than 2" up, 1" wider than stock) is around 3.5k so im told.. good luck with the rest unless you are sleeping with an engineer

Currently drive an MZ20 but it's a dead sleeper, cops pull me over and don't even know it's a turbo. nice cars

basically, clean the car up, don't drive like a wanker, have a good attitude and you might just make it through but if you do get defected be prepared to return lots of things to stock, fix leaks if any, fix bushes if any are worn etc etc...

things like injectors, fuel pump, clutch etc.. they usually overlook if the engine appears overly stock so shouldn't have too much trouble there

i may not be 100% correct about all the above but it gives you a pretty good idea

good luck with it!

I was hoping some would be over lookable. Rims don't look overly huge, they're kinda small. The car's neat, spoiler's been taken off, no bling no nothin.

I hope not though, car's a sleeper

Aleks

[Tangles]

you'll be ok mate. my car's a sleeper too.

no issues in the ownership of it, and none with the v8 sedan before that....would be right on 9yrs now without any issues, personally

drive sensibly and never get a speeding fine. drive 100% concentrating on whats around you, good posture, good steady clean control - no fkn about, and you'll be fine

enjoy your experiences!

[r33 chris]
