i got defected for low ride height. I was told to get a RWC and report to the cop station in a month after getting it fixed.

My question is do they look at other things apart from checking the ride height when i report to them?? If anyone has experienced this before, please advise. Thanks!

just bump the height, report to the cop shop and present the defect and show them the new ride height. Its only a minor they have defected you with so you dont have to go over the pits for a full inspection.

you'll be sweet.

thanks mate..i am hoping that will be the case. luckily they spotted only this.. tyres are a bit bald, especially the inner sides..i will be getting new tyres soon. i recently removed the pillar gauges which could have been another one.

Yeah tyres are pretty important, they're the only bit of your car that touches the ground (well, unless you have other problems :cool: ). Keep in mind that rain is forecast all week too.

Regardless of the possibility of a defect notice, if it's at all possible please don't drive your car until you get new tyres :D

i hardly drive my car these days as I catch public transport to work. on weekends i just use my daily. i got defected on the way to a friends place, 3 kms away from my house just to get the car raised to the legal height. i really should have asked him to come to my place :-) well one of those things you learn from experience..anyways i m not gonna drive it until i get the new tyres this week. i cant afford to make the same mistake again;-)

If you fixed the tyre's just take it to a station that doesn't have a traffic branch and it will all be sweet. Where about's in Brisbane are you.

thanks for the info mate. I have to get a RWC before i can take it to the cop station. i havent got to it yet. i am located in sunnybank hills. i may have to go to acacia ridge as they have specified it in the notice.

    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.  
    • Nice, let me know how you find the 98 tune
