You may be a very lucky man.

SAU Member Chris aka "Yeedogga" is a traffic lawyer who is after guys here who have had their vehicle defected - but the defects not yet cleared.

PM Yeedogga straight away + SMS him on 0410828230 too.

He's building a test case, and you may be a lucky guinea pig.

PM me for a Plan B too.

cash in rego.

wait until fixed and you can afford new rego.

either way, you need a blue slip.

Ahahhahah funny you say that today, just filled in the forms and took my plates off, handing them in today

this time of year, its VERY understandable.

Friend got defected today ,

Tyres , Exhaust .. Although i do think driving around with bad tyres in the rain would be considered "Reasonable"

The amount of time they gave him "10am tomorrow"

Is that legal ?

yes,i have seen anywhere from 2hrs to a couple of weeks.

All depends on the officer issuing the defect.

And the day they had.

If a Yellow \ Red label whatever it is called is issued ,

What will happen if defect is not cleared ? Is only the rego canceled or is the sticker with your vin till you clear it

either way, you will need a blue slip.

yes people need to drive their cars to work.

they also need to be in a roadworthy state.

how would you feel if someone with bald tyres lost control in the wet, smashed into your parents, and made them quadraplegics?

rules are there for a reason.

see it this way, "well, i got away with it for this long".

Agree with above.

Sure, if it was a pod or loud exhaust no ones going to get hurt.

Something like tyres is bloody dangerous. I wish they looked at them for all cars and not just imports modded cars etc.

Joe Blog who can't even check a tyre is just as dangerous but will almost never get checked.

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
