Rann is a dumbphuck

But anyway, the Summary Offences (Misuse of motor vehicles) Ammendment Bill was introduced in 2002 but I can't remember it even being reported by the media.

Looking at it I don't think its terribly unfair... sustained wheelspin, fair enough... ripping up an oval, fair enough.... engine or tyre noise that disturbs other people, thats drifting, burnouts or the morons that do 5000rpm down Rundle St, fair enough.... racing or speed testing, as long as you don't admit anything and arent caught doing anything toooo bad (dickheads speeding around suburban roads dont count, they deserve getting caught) it shouldnt be too hard to get out of it.

In any case, there is no provision to sell the vehicle unless you dont pick it up within three months of the impoundment ending

Haha.. steve's posts are a crackup.

instead of polititians wasting there time cracking down on road laws and pretending that cracking down on imports savelives.. they should crack down on the telephone sales cold calling.. Ive had 4 calls in the last week, some indian probably calling me direct from New Delhi asking for the Office Manager, then asking if i want to change the business telephone plan.. After i say in 4 different languages we are happy with the service we have already have, they abuse me in some sort of terrorist accent and they hang up on me!

Make a law that bans cold calling telephone I says.. that would be a bloody good use of polititian time!

and NSW, and WA.. although I think NSW was the first.. All the worst shit in this country originates from NSW :cheers:  

Steve has a good point.. bugger me if I'd be stopping and gently pulling over if you thought your car was going to be compounded and sold from underneath you. Its just going to result in worse incidents in some cases.  

They generally need video evidence though to be able to take the car off you, I think that is what happens up here anyhow.

I think they got rid of it in NSW?

You're laws are even worse than we have in WA now, the first time here the car is 'only' locked up for 2 days.

mate, you were probably lucky - his son/daughter may have an import, which only resulted in a warning for you. Many motorists in SA get pulled over and canaried for no apparent reason.

I was kinda lucky too,still got a fine but no defect:) I got pulled over a month ago for speeding, fair enough didnt put up a fuss, cop seemed pretty cool. I thought i was defected for sure but he just seemed happy to give me the fine. he did have abit of a look at my car too!

    • I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.
    • Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!
    • I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.
    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
