WTF- You can lose 2 points 4 loud exhausts

[HUSTLR]

And sound system- whats this place coming too:wassup: :what: :wassup:

[PranK]

hence my getting a cat fitted tomorrow.

[HUSTLR]

Christian do you get a notice first??? or its 2 points straight away???

[PranK]

straight away i think...

[HUSTLR]

Doh<-------

Mine is currently 99.8dB:paranoid: :paranoid: :paranoid:

Looks like i have to get those exhaust inserts

[PranK]

hmmm... mine is way louder than yours.... mine must be WAY illegal...

[Blitz]

HUSTLR: this is going to be a legal nightmare.... cops already hassle mod cars.... and now they can issue notices at their own discretion removign 2 points in the spot in effect from people whos exhausts are "deemed" to loud....... imagine the abuse of power here...... points and fine... and potentially a lot of exhausts that ARE legal getting picked on.

Do yourself a favour and get an engineers report. if anyone wants engineers recommendations feel free to pm me and i will give you details.

BY BY,

I thought i didn't matter if you had an engineers cert or not.

Xrsist - simply a case of knowing how to deal with cops who harrass you. Obviously an engineers report is not a be all end all solution, if you get pulled into a big defect station and they have testing equipment on site then ur up the creek.

my 200sx measured a healthy 108.5db :lol: - I was fined $250 and defected at a station, got it cleared, put it all back on and obtained a engineers report which declares your car complies to specific ADR's.

The main benifit of an engineers report is in a normaly case of cops pulling you over, when they check your rego it comes up with a "this is a registered modified vehicle" statement which 99% of the time makes them think twice about hassling you.

Bear in mind the majority of cops defect based on what they *think* not what they *know* to be illegal - the fact you have gone to the trouble of engineering your car keeps them at bay....

This is from experience......... i will be getting an engineers report shortly to prevent issues with my local constabulary who already know me on a first name basis

[XCUZME]

ahhahha thats the smartest thing ive ever heard all week!!

[AndyMac]

whats the best way to quieten an exhaust ? without decresing performance ????

Or is it a Catch 22 ?

[JiMb0]

That's it ... we need an r34 in white and blue with disco lights ... we can call ourselves the Rice Police .... and slap defects on offending vehicles :uh-huh:

[Guest Boxhead]

yes its one thing having a loud exhuast on a car to get better performance, its anotehr to put a loud exhuast on a shit car, just to make it loud

bloody excel drivers, i think all excels modded or not should get defected.

[KamikazeR33]

hows this for rice police?

[JiMb0]

Haha exactly what the doctor ordered .....
