It does mean you can do whatever you want to your car and never have to worry about defects.

It also means you can't just drive your car on the road whenever you like >_<

I miss it, bad :(

Sif worry bout defects. Just have nice hair. :thumbsup:

cops that dont write tickets, maybe they had an afternoon beer already and just wanted to go home?

There was 2 cops (well 3 actually, one rocked up in a second car halfway through, but it seems he just wanted to watch...). One was a guy, and he really didn't want to let me get off scott free. The other was a chick and she just wanted to give me a warning. Clearly she was hot for me ;). They seemed to settle on giving me a defect notice but no demerit notice, but then couldn't find the book so just let me go. The dude was clearly unhappy about it though.

Tirerack KU31

Like $105 on tirerack.

+Postage yeah? They're only ~$120 odd locally, so I don't reckon they'd be much cheaper. And I don't have to wait for them to come from overseas. I may be a 31 owner but I'm not that tight.

I got hassled by the cops for my tyres

my ride height, cage, steering wheel, blow off valve, rim width and lack of h pattern were mentioned too

he did say I had great hair, but still gave me a $200 fine.

Ghey

LOL.

To be fair though, you do have great hair

Truth.

less than 100mm ground clearance

I'm surprised actually, mine never seems to get checked for ground clearance.

Said solution involves driving around in patrol as daily. Chicks hate that. >_<

Werd.

That's why you need a fun car, and a daily which is also fun :thumbsup:

...shame it's such an expensive exercise :(

But that didn't work apparently...

thats because try as he might the f**king idiot couldnt find anything else on his laminated cheat sheet to get me for

On a more pleasing note it would appear they have realised the stupidity of dragging people through court for a bov. Quite a few members have been nabbed lately but only given a minor defect notice.

That's why I carried a cheat sheet killer under my passenger seat.

I spoke to a copper friend of mine about that....the judges were really beginning to resent having these types of offences go past them and started giving favourable outcomes to the 'hoons'

LOL, probably would have been the same for me if my tyres weren't bald at the edges.

There's no way that should be anything other than a minor defect. Win.

Spotted: Thristan at Geebung Commonwealth ;)

I didn't think drifters had any use for banks :P

I also have my own mini trundle wheel and tyre depth gauge.

I like it!

Obviously a Holden/Ford fan who hates "riceburners"

Or just trying to meet his quota? Who knows.

Good to see there's some common sense in the system somewhere.

    • True, might get it looked at. Found out you can in fact flatten the 12v battery relatively easily too the other day (kids lefts the hazards on) so meaning to get that checked in the new year. What's odd is it'll blow cold from both vents if you have the ac down as low as poss (18), but anything else the passenger one blows warmish. Also has been summer since I got it obvs but noticed it didn't seem to want to blow hot last night when we had a cold snap. 
    • You ask for things. You specifically state you want responsiveness. A link was provided for a far superior, more responsive option. Find a MX5 workshop that will install it for you. Maybe MX5 Mania will throw on the Fab9 kit. It seems they want to charge almost 14K installed for their kit, so if they charge you $6K to install the FAB9 kit then you'll be ahead? Though really, the 2.5 with a 2860 running low boost will more or less feel as good as anything else. It's a lot of displacement and a small turbo. Think of a more modern RB26 with one stock turbo :p TBH, truth be told I've been driving my own car, and use about 50% throttle at most for 99.9% of the time. Mr Bogan is likely similar so this is all going to be semantics for the use case he actually has. (He'll be happy with anything relative to now) However, the EFR is hands down far superior in this use case. You really, really, really, really do notice it over the Garrett or equivalent.  
    • You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap
    • Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy 
    • Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.
