WOW You got reemed pretty good! What cruise was it? RCK? Anyone doing burnouts on the cruise? Someone must of reported to the Police about burnouts or something for them to raid the place and defect you like that...

It was the All Car Cruise "ACC" no there wasn't much activity of people being silly or doing burnouts. I was speaking to a police officer today who was at the raid on Saturday, as we always have police coming through our work. He said that all they were there for was to keep and eye on everyone, and to do sorta a police escort for us as there were so many cars, but when the police chief wanted to speak to the ACC leader person, the ACC leader apparently told the police to f**k off and then the trouble started. So the police said thats enough, gloves off, and thats when all hell broke loose for everyone.

Nor me. So the ACC leader insults police at a cruise. Everyone suffered because of the cruise organiser? More than enough reason to stay clear of ACC. They're on SAPOLs shit list.

Getting my R33 back together to go through regency after the defect, how do they take front mount intercoolers, its a pretty neat setup, the piping has been cut through the wheel arch, but its only as big as the piping, with a insulation between the pipe and hole. The clutch fan has had the tip cut off the corner of each blade to allow for the piping to clear the fan. Will i have any dramas with any of this, apart from that the car is pretty much back to stock again. Thanks

I had worn the tips off my fan from it hitting my intercooler piping, I then snapped the rest of the bits off. They can't really see it so no one said anything. As long as the intake pipe isn't floating around in the engine bay it shouldn't be an issue.

yep , for a small price of $26.50 :P

sounds rather interesting mitch.....care to elaborate in regards to what happened/went down????

so i borrowed wheels off Lewis (volk34) and got an adr approved steering wheel, raised my coilovers up , put stock seat in and made the car appear stock

took it to the cop shop and was just like "oh hey guys i got defected for tyres and my horn not working, fair enough on the tyres as it was the day before pay day and i couldnt afford them but the horn was just a fuse which i replaced 2 hours later"

cop said "ahk mate gimme a sec ill get someone from traffic to come help you out" , last time i heard this , i got told to touch my toes and bite a pillow so i wasnt skeptical :P

few mins went past and an older guy comes out and asked what can he do for me , told him "hey mate just wanna get my car off defect, its ticked as minor but also ticked as vehicle inspection, was just wondering if you can take it off as its only tyres and steering wheel , this is the wheel i had on there and its not illegal"

cop; "ahk yeah lets go have a look at the car , where is it parked ?"

me; "out the front to the left buddy"

walks out there , asks if he can look in it , opens the drivers door , spends not even 10 seconds looking in it , then just looks up n down the car from the side and goes "alright mate come back in side"

at this point im like shiiiiiit im gonna get another sticker

go back in side and he messes around on the computer for a couple minutes , im shitting myself at this point haha

few mins pass and he gets another cop , now im packing it haha

few mins go past , yadda yadda yadda

cop "alright mate that will be $26.50"

/hands over debit card

cop "that saves ya the stupid $150 + fee that regency charge ya"

me "im glad that your committed to your job :), thank you so much for being helpful"

cop "thats alright mate, have a great weekend"

me "sure will matey , you too ! "

if only more cops were like that ;)
