Hicks Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 As some of you know, I was driving round on the cruise with a yellow sticker. Well today I went to the pits to get rid of it and was failed! The reason I got the sticker was for my air filter, FACTORY bov, and rims being too big. All these items were fine, but now I have to take off my window tint, make a better bracket for my filter, more sturdy mounts on my exaust, take the tint off my indicators and a whole heep of other stupid shit!!

Gradenko Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 Originally posted by Hicks make a better bracket for my filter See deesh, thats why we all have brackets for our pods. How much play was in the filter when you took it over the pits, Hicks?

Hicks Posted December 3, 2002 Author Share Posted December 3, 2002 Theres already a bracket, but aparently theres too much play(bugger all). He also wants me to remove the air intake that fits into the standard filter. My rims are cool though, only just. Bout 4mm under the standard rolling diametre. Phew.

deesh Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 i bloody hope i dont get pulled over then, BOV, loose filter (no hose clamp or mounting) wheels are bigger, etc etc. tint is gonna be expensive to fix, but more sturdy exhaust mounts etc thats just plain crap. didnt you use the "it came from japan like this mister" argument?

GTS-t VSPEC Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 That's bullshit, I feel sorry for you Hicks, you must have caught the wrong guy at the wrong time. Friend of mine got his car over the pits with a NOS fogger system and a shitload of other stuff, it just depends which person you get, but I'm sure if the cops want to pick on me then I'll have a list as long as you arm of shit that is illegal. Hope you don't have too many more hassels, sounds like you've had a tough time of it lately.

ix9 Posted December 4, 2002 Share Posted December 4, 2002 Well well well... You should have gone to east perth licensing. I had 3 yellow's removed on my sonata for trivial things like yours, tyres mismatched, silver wipers, too loud exhaust... heaps of stuff... ALL PASSED fine... The east perth blokes rock, and they know what pricks traffic cops can be!

NO_RSPECT Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 Strick, I wish I could agree, but I got stuck at East Perth and was given the run around by them from 7:30 am in the morning when they open to 4:20 in the afternoon to get my car over. All because of an aftermarket front bar. would you believe that crap. it was the most utter Bull i have ever been through. I have lodged a complaint about them because they should have given me all the things that were wrong and then sent me on my way, but they claimed they could not make a decision so I had to go to the big heads located at welshpool who will make a decision and give me a permit, blah blah, the whole friggin day.. Jamie at east perth can go to hell. he can go to hell and die (cartman) HICKS, mate i dont know you but goddamn man, i understand this crap. i saw the bunkiest pieces of crap go through while i sat there with a 96 smick GTST This is off topic but if anyone knows someone getting rid of a cheap amp (2 channel) with over 300 RMS can you get them to email me ([email protected]) like under $500 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6916-yellow-stickers-suck/#findComment-103633 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob77 Posted December 5, 2002 Share Posted December 5, 2002 I took my car to midland to get registered after compliance and it was pretty easy, once they saw the green compliance plate they pretty much just looked it over and gave me the thumbs up. I think if I get a yellow I'll take it there, they seem very helpfull and casual.
