He was pulled over by the Police in Marion St Leichhardt.

He's been pulled over before in his highly modified donk Alfa 33 and got pinged.

Plan B:-

He keeps both of his 'Remotes #1 & #2' on him at all times when in this car.

He keeps them separated from his keys.

When he's been pulled over this time, he got out of his car and locked it with #1.

The officer asked him to pop his bonnet, he said, "Sure Officer" and pulled out #2.

But #2 didn't work. Then he presses it again in front of the officer and nothing happens. He said, "I'll have to go back home and get the other one then."

He got let off.

There was one flaw that the officer didn't pick up on, but that didn't matter.

This is the most laughable strategy I've heard for a while, even more so that a 'lawyer' came up with it.

Will not work:

* I'm pretty sure its defectable to not have proper 'control' of your vehicle, much like the 'broken bonnet latch' trick

* By going home you will need to leave the car where you stopped it, hope its not on a highway / no-parking / no-stopping zone

* Chances are the cop will call in a tow-truck to move it if point 2 is true, chances are it'll be moved to an impound yard.

Yeah some lawyer this guy is...

Very good, but obviously the officer didn't twig that he still must have the keys to drive the car and the same keys will also open the doors.

Would be noisy but meh.

Am I correct, do I win with my simple non random non rant (answer)?

not a bad ploy me thinks. alarm would go off but depending on the alarm it would turn itself off after a while. door would still open and you would still be made to open the bonet. maybe say your alarms playing up and whenever the coppa puts his head under the bonet turn your alarm siren on to make it uncomfortable on his ears and hope he doesnt take to it with his gun.

Cops don't use their guns in australia, what are you on about......It's not like the car is holding two knives or something ;)

Two points to make.

If you think it will stop the defect, it wont. You will merely be directed to an inspection station.

You commit an offence by obstructing the officer. The lawyer risks being removed from practice if it became common knowledge that he knowingly assisted in the commission of an offence.

Not a real smart lawyer.

      Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.

      Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
