On the way to work this morning and dandenong TMU are pulling over cars, letting most through until yes you guessed it the saw me :banana:

so the copper is looking under my car for what i dont know, then asks me to pop the hood. after a few mins of looking he asks me where is my bov? i dont have 1 sir

then he proceeds to keep looking, after a few more mins he tells me i need to put the stock air box back on (granted) as i have a cooler.

in the end i get a defect for a small crack on the front right indicator, my hand brake witch had 7 clicks and not the 6 allowed and for the air box,

so all in all it wasnt to bad :banana:

The handbreak is total bull shit!!!... ...There are plenty of cars out there that are setup with way more than 7 clicks... ...If I really really try... ...I could get more than 10 clicks out of it... ...it engages after two clicks and the rest is all tension in the cable... ...And anyway... ...You're meant to push the button in when you put the handbreak on and then release the button once it goes tight... ...If you're using your handbreak correctly you'll never hear the clicks...

My dad's car has an old slide hand break and it would have about 15 clicks on it... ...Good luck giving him a ticket for that...

A small crack in the indicator is crap too... ...Unless "white" light can come out... ...There are so many crappy cars driving around with sun faded tail lights and indicators that don't get defects it does my head in...

Your GTS-t will have a BOV... ...but most likely the stock one... ...Which doesn't vent to air...

He has got you with the airbox as you said... ...But I wouldn't stand for the other things... ...I keep my car stock because I use it for work and I've been pulled over a few times now and have been told that I've got things on my car which I clearly don't...

He was mainly pinging the guy for the airbox. Don't they need 3 issues to write you a ticket?

The other two are just rubbish like bent license plate, etc.

Fix up the obvious and they'll ignore the rest.
