Defected part Duex

[EnricoPalazzo]

Hey guys,

Got pulled over sat nite after seeing a movie with my gf. Was doin NOTHING WRONG AT ALL, and i got done.

So it would be highly apprecieated if:

I could borrow or buy a stock BOV. Im sick of my HKS one so it will be on the market.

Please reply ASAP cos i only have 36hrs left of driving before i have to go to cop shop.

[TIMMMAYYY]

thats gay as man.

what was the cops reason for pulling you over?

did you tell him that he can only issue a defect if your vehicle is deemed to be more liable because of your modifications you have done (which a BOV isn't one of them)...wankers.

[EnricoPalazzo]

huh, mate they said they can pull me over for whaterver they want basically. I said to them i was doin nothin wrong which they said we didnt say u wer. But they still have the power to pull me over. I then asked for there badge no.s which then they started to b nice to me. I was like wtf.

[whatsisname]

Dean,

I've got a stock BOV you can borrow mate. Is the BOV the only thing they pinged you for?

[Bl4cK32]

So, you asked for their badge numbers, and they started being nice?? Then they only gave u a cop shop defect???

[EnricoPalazzo]

nah mate vis.

Matt im thinkin of buying a stock BOV and sellin my HKS. Its too noisy and im sick of gettin this shit.

I got done for boost controller, too low and bov. my exhaust is surprisingly legal.

I think im gonna stay high rider so i wont get pinned after i get defect off.

If you got VIS, does that mean you have to go to Regency, or can you take it to any other place?

[EnricoPalazzo]

regency only.

[whatsisname]

I feel for you mate

How low does your car sit? What measurement did they use to say it was too low?

[EnricoPalazzo]

it has to b 360mm at front and rear and now its at 310mm. Good thing is i can change them to legal height, however after wat ive heard im freakin that they wont allow the coil overs thru.

me = scared

Mate,

Don't mean to scare ya but

I got my R33 registered at Regency and the experience was not great. I felt it was long and drawn out unnecessarily.

My car was stock ffs, BONE STOCK. And they still went over it with a fine tooth comb.

I know better from others experiences and won't be doing anything to the car that will attract cops. If they want to look under the bonnet then they will need a warrant.

[Steve]

I wonder where they get the 360mm bullshit from?

[EnricoPalazzo]

dude ive been defected b4, so its not a new experience for me, hence saying part duex(2)

[Phorte]

360mm sounds like eyebrow distance..

whcih is distance between centre of wheel axle and middle of wheel arch.. each car has its own specific limit and they have a book whcih they refer to..

Hey Steve, what rights do us as drivers have when this happens?? Can we refuse?? and ask on what reasonable grounds do they require to check it??

If u were doing the speed limit, and your car is stock height, with good tyres....What grounds do they have then that require a bonnet to be lifted?? :bs!: :bs!: :bs!: :bs!: :bs!:

[gtrGhosTDoGG11]

Ah, is this what they call thread hijacking?

From what I understand, the cops have no right to search the vehicle unless they have a warrant or you give them permission explicitly.

So if they ask you, just say no

DISCLAIMER: I am not a lawyer so please look up the laws for yourself, Hiep your g/f should know something about this.

nah my gf dont' know hahaha ... hey dean my cousin might have a stock blower ... i'll give him a call now for ya ... yeah i think he has it ... not too sure ... gotta check tomorrow ... .. anyways i got my safc today so its looking good ... .. u still free tomorrow?? i guess u will be workin on the car hahaha

[EnricoPalazzo]

im havin a haircut in the morinin, then changin the height of the car and installin stock BOV. U can stil come over cos it would only take about 1hr to do the stuff i need to do.

It would b wicked if u could lend me stock BOV.

Call me. cya

[hippy]

Only a criminal law effects stuff like warrants or rights to look through your car. It doesnt work on Traffic matters. You cant refuse them the right to look under your hood or in the car.
