A message to all modified skyline owners in victoria, yesterday i got pulled over by cops and was slapped a defect on my skyline in the CBD. Funny thing is I had 3.5 inch exhaust system with a 5 inch tip, Nismo 400R bodykit, lowered springs, BOV, airfilter, 2 HKS pillar mount gauges, Microtech computer with handset (when caught) and the works etc.

I managed to talk my way out of it and was only defected by a "LOOSE HANDBRAKE LEVER" and need to get a RWC done.

PART 2 was RWC was done by a dodgy mechanic, so I took it to VIC ROADS, they didnt even bother to check my car! STAMP-FREE to GO! so whaddaya think guys? Also I heard that cops and on the prowl for modified cars, so beware!

Odd, from the outside my ride would look the same as yours.

Lowered, 400r kit but without modded exhaust.

I have been eyeballed by lots of cops and not pulled over once.

I spose whenever they see me I'm adhering to the traffic laws and not driving erractically.

Maybe my car doesn't look like a "hoons" car. :)

That bad-boy image will catch up with you sooner or later :)

HaHa, posting in relay here Jimbo.

I don't have a bad boy image, you know that. I have absolutely no interest at all in Louise's young friends.

Whatever you heard, I had nothing to do with any of it.

defection is nothing.

it comes with a modified car.

and the little 'dodgy-RWC' comment i wouldn't talk about that here.

And when we (i) organise cruises we have nothing to worry about. We've never had problems so relax.

Just got done in Fitzroy street.

BOV, should be easy to fix

Exhaust to low, hopefully the TEIN suspension, i can raise it

Nardi Steering wheel, no centre pad, (will have to check into this)

Front end to be aligned, although the tyres passed.

The last 2 are interesting ones, he said just get an alignment.

    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
    • That depends, someone might offer me a good price to resell it Mark... Ha ha ha!   I can get it wrapped in a really nice looking carbon fiber vynil if you want?
