Wouldn't normally create a thread on defects because it's a shithouse topic, but I'm curious as to how many people from here (if any) got pulled over yesterday for inspection. Seems to me they were having a blitz around the Wantirna area because a mate got done yesterday by the same Knox TMU car that got me earlier in the day. And no, it wasn't Pettett.

Also saw a few modified cars pulled over yesterday on the way home from dinner lastnight, bonnets popped.

I drove through Knox yesterday (and nearly every other day for the past 5 months) and still had no hassles.

The only time I've ever had a run in with police in that area was when I was parked at a school at night (looked suspicious) and they realised that I was driving manual on an auto license.

I guess I'm just lucky.

A couple of my mates got done over the weekend, I knew this was going to happen so my car stayed locked in the garage.

So much for the big crackdown on drink drivers over the easter break...trust the coppers to grab anything they can. Rats.

Left the GTR parked in the garage over Easter. Figured it would be safer given the bad press imports get.... especially over the break.

AU Falcon?

I thought they would be a little old for the police by now?

I got pulled over on monday. I bought the car 2 weeks ago with a roady and still copped a fine for 300 buck for drivin a unroadworthy vehicle.

Only reason I didn't get defected is cos I was on my way to the airport and was in a rush.

It was a RBT on Kellets rd near stud. There was a couple of skylines there getting done too.

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues 
    • Yes I as well would like to find out where I could get some of the seat material with the red or blue small squares in it
