GT-400R Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 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! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/25193-defected/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT-400R Posted September 18, 2003 Author Share Posted September 18, 2003 so please be careful when organizing cruises! Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/25193-defected/#findComment-535828 Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkymonkey Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 um, this does not belong in events but thanks for the heads up. Talking to the cops sensibly always solves more problems than the alternate.

inark Posted September 18, 2003 Share Posted September 18, 2003 probably a bit stupid boasting about it in here tho... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/25193-defected/#findComment-535863 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardest Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 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. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/25193-defected/#findComment-535977 Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_kw13 Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 The bizarre thing is that with all the stuff inside and outside the car - they just picked something so trivial - must be all those donuts. Maybe it wasnt a cop that knew what they were looking for. Do all cops supposed to know that pillar mounts and atmo BOVs are defectable?

I have absolutely no interest at all in Louise's young friends. Whatever you heard, I had nothing to do with any of it.

R31Nismoid Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 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.

Guest Robo's Posted September 21, 2003 Share Posted September 21, 2003 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. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/25193-defected/#findComment-538338 Share on other sites More sharing options...
