pulled over by the 5-O, now no more boost control mod!!!

But, to the good cops reading this, pull me over if you like, just get prepared to have a nice respectful chat about engineering

You dont even need to finish high school these days to become a cop, so its pointless talking to them about anything other than what specials are on at the local donut shop as they wouldnt have a farkin clue.

lol mmmmm donuts

if the car you bought was road worthied (i.e by a car dealer) with all the mods in it and you are pulled over and asked to remove modifications, does that the make that road worthy dodgy and hence could possiblly hit up the car dealer for those costs if any to make your car legal/fine.....

This is where it really pisses people off.

The law states that 'Your car can be considered unroadworthy in the OPINION of the police officer' so even if you get a canary and drive straight to a roadworthy centre and they tell you there is nothing unroadworthy about ur car you still end up having to pay the BS $165 fine because according to the OPINION of sum pig they think ur car is unroadworthy. This is just another law that helps raise revenue and gives cops power to just make up shit as they go along even if they dont know what laws they are trying to enforce!!

thats sux major balls... obviously if a hacertified person s asessd your car and said that your car is fine and road worthy then the opinion of the cop is flaud. Cops could just abuse there power and run riot. Hope fully there are good cops around that won't abuse there powers.....

i have a BOV and boost gauge mounted at A pillar.... haven't been pulled over yet, but when i do i'm prety sure i'm gonna get raped...

do u get points taken off?

[Dahtone Racing]

no you do not lose points for gauges.

but in NSW not sure about other states you can lose points for loud stereos and loud exhausts

yes more complete and utter bullsh!t comming from the people who are running this country.

ive seen it happen quite a few times, where a mate would cop a canary, even though he had the permits etc, and the guys at the pits would just take the sticker off and send him on his way.

i wonder what would happen if that cop would get enuff complants towards him?

He would get a pat on the back for raising lots of revenue.

i'm gunna drill a one-eigth hole in me wastegate actuator pressure pipe, underneath where yooz can't see it.......... that'll f*ck 'em!

[Dahtone Racing]

its interesting how cops can have all their bullsh!t screens and sh!t all over the dash but because its in thier car its not a defect.

i can gaurantee that all that shit would be more dangerous in the event of an accidnet than an a-pillar mounted boost gauge.

Hey Skliner's, 'tis me, the guy who started this topic! (sorry)

Just as an addition to my original thread..............

My fuel economy......crickey's (I can now actually afford to buy a nice lunch!!)

Normally when I put in $20 of 'expensomax', I get 100km ($30 then 200km etc).

I've just hit the 150km mark on 20 bux!!!!

Boost went down to 7-8psi as opposed to 10-12 psi before I got pulled by 5-O.

I miss the thrilling take-offs, but maybe the money I save will get me a GTR front mount sooner than I thought I could!!!

Anyways.........what's better?......LineTake-off or money saved (simply put!!), potentially going towards more 'legal'(?) power in da Front-mount.

Da Muney or da Box?

thanx to everybody who participated in this thread. I enjoyed it and 'learnt' from it.
