so i went down to vicroads explained my story, she basically said they can not deviate and must honour what is written on the defect notice, only the officer who issued the defect or someone higher than him can change the defect notice and must write out a new one although i dont think the lady really knew what i was talking about with the vass i think she was just going off what i had said about it, im not going down to the police station to slug it out with this bloke though soooo....

...i called vicroads, gave them my speel, spoke to quite a few people till i finally got through to andrew cruddis (angelo is on holidays so hes caretaking at the moment). i explained to him the police officer did not specify anything to be engineered on the defect so why am i needing to engineer a stock vehicle so he said take your car and get the roadworthy done and tell the inspector to call me directly to have a chat about the car and maybe he can do something about the VASS certificate sooo...

...car goes in tomorrow for roadworthy inspection.

thats progress so far,not sure if im still going to have to clear the defect at denmark street vicroads or not fingers crossed i dont, andrew asked me if i had cut a hole for the front mount, i said it didnt matter as the car does not have airbags from factory, he said it doesnt matter its still a structural part of the front of the car so hopefully i dont have to get that engineered, my roadworthy guy used to own a 32 himself and i think he would be prepared to slug it out about this rule anyway, he said hes just gotta make sure the hole is neatly cut and what not..

Now that I have finally done the traffic training I can say the police have no power at all to request vass certificate. Can only send you to get rwc and up to mechanic to request vass. Would say from the training that 90% of nou issued incorrectly

I heard that there are going to be target lists of repeat offenders given to tmu units for tasking. Could be called black lists. I think it's good to target repeat disqualified, suspended, unlic drink drivers etc. massive push to turn traffic matters into crime charges. Eg do burnout near spectators and get charged with reckless conduct giving you crime record

i got "black listed" because my car was too low and wheels too wide.. seriously :(

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
