IMO the officer is in the wrong and cannot specify which VicRoads you need to attend as any defect can be cleared at ANY VicRoads.

You would be wrong here, an officer can tell you what vicroads to get it cleared at. If they want to make life hard, they could have put Mildura.

In most cases they right ANY (vicroads) in this section, but nothing stops them from put a certain vicroads.

If they have put on there VASS required, Vicroads wont clear the defect until you get the certificate. The VASS engineers might be picky with other mods you have.

Your correct, if a VASS is stated as required then you need one. it won't be cleared without it.

And yes an officer can require one on a defect notice.

i know cops have the authority to defect a car based on an observation of unroadworthiness and the right to report you to the EPA based on an observation of the car being below emmisions standards .... but i wonder if they have the right to order a vass engineers certificate!

Yes they do.

So the police. As stupid as some can be are qualified to ask you to get a vass certificate? That's f**ked up. Before any cop does a check on your car ask them if they have completed the according training and have the certificate with then that they can do a rwc check. Has caught out a few cops in my time :) they cbf calling tmu so I left.

Cops don't need to do any training to issue defects, as soon as they are cops they can.

No one carry's the certificate, as its not required and anyway as its an A4 sheet of paper, so its not that easy to carry :rolleyes:

i can see the defect bit, and the conditions of use of the vehicle part, what about the right to request a vass certificate

Here it is, under Road Safety (Vehicles) Regulations 2009 section 257 http://www.austlii.e...09309/s257.html

257 Use of modified vehicles

(1) A person must not use on a highway a vehicle that has been modified from the condition in which it

was in when first registered unless the modification—

(a) has the Corporation's approval; or

(b) has been carried out in accordance with guidelines published by the Corporation

which are available—

(i) at the offices of the Corporation; or (ii) on the internet website of the

Corporation.

Penalty: 5 penalty units.

(2) The Corporation must not give its approval to or in respect of a vehicle modification if the vehicle no longer complies with the standards for registration unless the Corporation proposes to register the vehicle under regulation 30(1).

The Corporation approval means a VASS certificate

Guideline published by the corporation means VSI (vehicle standards information)

I can't prove this more then this, without releasing internal documents which I not allowwed to do.

But trust me, I do this for a living, I'm giving you the correct information, I have no reason to lie to you. If you really want to check call the the police general number and ask to speak to the Vehicle safety testing centre and ask them.

You own me a beer sometime for digging this stuff up.:thumbsup: as I'm doing it on my own time to help you.

And yes the cop may be was a bit tough on you, bit you did know that you were breaking the law. as it's said "do the crime, do the time"

i believe you mate i was just after something written in regards to vass i couldnt find anything

Yeah no problems, I'm happy to help if I can.

The information I posted was from the Victorian police Vehicle Safety Manual, but I can't post it up.

I know it doesn't spell it out in laymans terms but thats is where it relates.

What the cop has done is right, maybe a little harsh? I can't say as I wasn't there! but what he has done is not outside his powers.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Thanks for all that information I appreciate it. To answer your questions: - Yep that's what I mean. These guys are professional painters to so I must be missing something. It's a bit hard to explain. - With the primer landing on clearcoat, I make sure that the surrounding clearcoat is scuffed to 240 grit as my epoxy primer says that I only need to sand the area to 240 grit. - Yeah so similar to the first question, assuming that the paint landed on the unscuffed clearcoat because I've seen that happen. - Yep I want to prep the surface in that order. Only reason because epoxy primer will protect it from rust and I need that atm with this crappy Sydney weather. I think I was worried about time, if I try to put the filler down but screw it up somehow and I don't have time to sand it off and reapply it then need to put primer later that it might start to rust again so I wanted to apply the primer as quick as possible to not deal with rust.  - I just deleted some answers, I just realised after watching a video and what you said about looking at the data sheet, that I need to read the data sheet on the specific filler I'm using. It's possible now that I put epoxy primer first was a waste of time and need to go to bare metal lol

      Did tie rods. Steering now not "springing" back.

      By silviaz · Posted

      I did. I went to a suspension guy and he told me because I don't have adjustable camber arms it's the reason why my car veers towards the left if I take my hands off the wheel but if I drive my other every day car and take my hands off the steering wheel it goes completely straight. I think it's common with Skyline's. In order to fix the problem, I likely need gktech camber arms then nismo bushes since I have poly bushes atm, then a wheel alignment after that. With my car if I take my hands off the steering wheel on a really bumpy road before stopping at a light I have to hold my steering wheel somewhat tight otherwise my car will legit just go completely in the other direction quite quickly and I'll slam into something lol instead of stopping straight. I Believe this YouTuber had the same issue and fixed it with gktech arms. At timestmap 6:05 he talks about how the car doesn't veer anymore after installing these arms.

      I don't know the answer to this, but did you have a look at the parts diagrams on amayama.com and see what they list around it for your car? As an example this should be it on my car. That's how I would check for required clips and things like that. But, I take no responsibility for you ending up with a box full of random OEM hoses, washers and clips after going down that path a few times. This definitely has never happened to me
