The Defected Thread...


Cubes

Recommended Posts

Rather than start a whole new thread figured i'd ask this here...

Has anyone ever been picked on for having retreads when going through Regency?....Im going tomorrow and I just noticed on my Tire Placard in the fine print that my GTR requires a 'V' Rated tire 240km/h....my intention was to borrow a set of 33 stockies with retreads...has anyone ever been shafted for this?

you will be fine with those mate. As long as the tire has tread and the wheel matches the size stated in your placard you will be fine.

goodluck

Just a quick update, passed inspection today, think i scored the best Inspector there...only down side was I broke the connector off my PFC Hand Controller, I had left it in the car as it wasnt connected and me and the Inpsector exchanged views on the matter...I got a little frustrated and pulled a bit harder than I should have and it broke...exhaust was super quiet, went to 92Db then settled at 86Db...full jap system with metal cat too...wtf? Does have 2 big mufflers...Anyway, im sure it can be fixed, stoked to have passed!

Anyone know anyone that fixes PFC Hand Controllers???...

Any electronics repair business should be able to solder you up a new connector, unless you snapped the actual physical plug itself, might be pretty hard to find a replacement, though any decent electronic technician could wire you up a different plug,

Is the panel firmly attached or does it flap around? If its firmly attached you might be ok, just depends on inspector.

I had my inner guards hacked to pieces, rear bumper loose (they didn't touch it) and front quarter panel had a crack where it mounts and was cable tied on (also didn't touch it), didn't get picked up however none were obvious or loose panels, yours has a hole so it might get picked on.

gday all had my pride and joy defected a few months ago for being 10mm too low and a broken fog light near the underpass of ingle farm shopping centre....was wondering how with the fact of stock springs? as i wasnt driving the car it was a spastic ex that has no clue i couldnt dispute it. and on the subject of fog lights why defect it if you cant use them for city driving? fairly furious and whether i could escape with taking it too elizabeth cop shop?

What height is it now?

I'm a bit worried about mine now too - since I put the 18's on it seems to be sitting around 335 - used to be 345-350-ish :( .. guess I can always put the 17's back on to get through..

    • Surprisingly the D6000 is only $1999, I'm waiting for the BF/CM sales, and hoping to get one cheaper. D4000 is well priced, still outperforms the 13" SVS PB-3000 and is like 1/2 the price at $1699 RRP. I do watch a fair amount of movies, and listen to EDM, jazz, symphonies, etc. so the lower notes from a subwoofer are always appreciated. The front 8" stage, just doesn't provide you with lively feeling, even though they are pretty bassy for a pair of large bookshelves. Then again, these days it's just playing Wiggles, Blippi and Ms Rachel, another reason the 3m wide cabinet exists, to hide all the audio gear behind it. They used to sit on a nice pair of stands, but as you know, they make good baby traps too.
    • Granted, which is a solid reason why I don't have one. My floorstanders are only -2 dB at 22 Hz.  So they're still working down to <20 Hz. Which is no doubt part of the reason why my receiver shits the bed! That Tonewinner would be about double the cost though, so it's not apples and apples. There aren't many AU$1300 subs (that you can buy prebuilt, I'm ignoring what can be achieved by DIYing) that compete.
    • -6dB at 22Hz isn't that great, watch the data from the D6000 from REW
    • I'll just leave this here. https://www.adelaidespeakers.com/subwoofers.html TL loading, big power. They sound awesome. This is what I would buy if I was going to try to take the bass away from my floorstanders. Just go with the 12".
    • I'll snap up some photos when I'm back home, in the office today meeting my "in the office" quota. Have 2x Teams calls scheduled in, office culture they reckon.   I've never owned a proper off the shelf sub, I've always made or modified broken ones with Jaycar plate amps and/or car subwoofer drivers. The current (and broken) subwoofer has a proper home driver in it, Dayton driver, thos one https://www.daytonaudio.com/product/118/rss265hf-4-10-reference-hf-subwoofer-4-ohm FS of 25Hz, which is low but not low enough. Yeah, I think they were brought out to the market to compete with SVS. I would love a SVS PB-3000 but they're not cheap, especially after their price hike. From reviews online, it does look like the Tonewinner D6000 would destroy and with good amount of money saved too.
