That police officer who told you that is the kind of dumb k*nt im talking about. I am a supervisor at work ,i have morals,respect,im mature etc,but because i,or someone wants to wear a hat,or a singlet or whatever a dope like that wants to pull you up and hassle you because of the way you look.

Cheers

So So Tru I ducked off to dicksmiths liverpool couple a weeks ago wearing tshirt n shorts n havaianas. on the way home reilly rd lurnea sum poof cop drives past me does uturn at roundabout bout 200m away n flies past 4 other cars just to catch up (im only crusing under 50k/h) flashes his headlights so i pull over he comes over to me asks: is this your car, then says are u sure, then says i was jus checking if u were wearing yourseatbelt. oh i cant believe i didnt get his name campbelltown police though (in livo?) 2 weeks later i get defect vehicle notice with summons to go to EPA lidcombe for exhaust (according to cop it has no resonator and is far too loud (it is actually: 86db @ 4800rpm 3.5in cat, resonator, exhaust)dildo) and blow off valve and pod filter that i dont even own. I called EPA to clarify and they said just front up and theyll look. And i got done $175 and 2points for not displaying my red p's my sis's green p's were on instead and it was my first ever offence. no leniancy

i got exhaust tested and certified by livo exhaust 86db and because it is same configuration as stock exhaust (bar the 3.5 in pipng with 4.5in tip) they said i should just attend and they will advise me at Lidcombe because it is under. EPA also said so long as some configuration is maintained it should be a pass provided it is under the noise limit 90db. Has any one else done this i need advice soon as judgement day is fri 9 @ 830am Lidcombe EPA.

Hi, Had a show 32 GTR only got pulled over for RBT'S, the usual shit...

"is this car yours" where do you live" etc. Just be polite and dont be a smart arse. Ive never been asked to pop the bonnet.

Now i drive Stock looking 32, wheels exhaust etc with no front number plate, as im too lazy to put it back on. Havent been pulled over as yet, despite driving past police all the time, they just stare at me.

Though i have been in mates cars and had police pull us over for nothing at all and write a whole list of defects, mostly around the Central Coast region, where it takes 3 cop cars to all come and have a look at your car and defect you.

  • 1 month later...

just got pulled over by the cops last night for no reason. he came down and said my exhaust is not standard and he asked me to pop up my bonnet. he looked at the hks bov and said it's illigal but then i said it's plumbed back though. then he said you lucky! <_< .. he then look at the fmic and said also that it's also illigal, because it allows more air thru the engine which is not standard! :(.. then he look at my pod filter which was totally sealled, then said it's illigal as well because you require a box around it not just enclose it with sheet metal/plastic which only for blocking the heat! :) ... it needs to be full enclose to prevent from sucking alot of air! :)

i was polite to him and everything but he tried to act as if he know everything! i told him that i had never have trouble with the law before but then he said "well i'm going to give you a fine and EPA will send you the form, and it will be your lesson to own an imported car which you should know they have been modified and it's my responsibility" :( .....

oh yeah, he also took a few pictures of my exhasut, enclose pod, fmic and BOV! <_<

1. can someone tell me whether our pod with CAI is illigal? and it need to be fully enclose like the stock box!

2. if EPA asked my to bring in the car should i put back the stock exhaust? i was told that with 3" turbo back exhaust from Liverpool Exhaust it would be complied, i'm lost.

In the two years that I have owned my R33 apart from the odd RBT, I haven't been pulled over yet. Actually never been pulled over in 9 years of driving, knock on wood! Don't want to jinx myself either!

in my 1.5 years of owning a line ive only been pulled over once for an rbt, he asked a couple of questions, asked if i had modifications under the hood, just said" she's a stoker" and he let me go.

for over 4 years i have never had a problem and only RBT twice and never asked about what i got in the bonnet!

it's just this time, where this police just pull me over for no season just to check out my exhaust. :blink: .. is it for real that he said that the EPA will send me form and ask me to EPA centre! he didnt give me the defects form but just a normal traffic fine!

A few months back I was pulled over by a powertripper about not indicating into my street, which uses a filter lane of the main rd...

The cop was at least 3 cars back, but he was stating how I drove like a dickhead, how people my age that drive cars like I do, end up round poles etc...

What I did was called up the police station for that area and registered an official complaint, as it was blant that they were on a powertrip...

I stated that we shouldnt be stereotyped due to the car we drive, that the cop acted in complete dis-respect, representing the rest of the police body, and that calling me a disckhead is totally unprofessional.

It was funny, cause the leading sergant I spoke to on the phone stated that "dickhead" isnt even offensive these days, but I asked them, would you teach your children that word?

I still havent received my indicating fine... its been a few months now

I get pulled over in my company car and in my 32 all the time.

In the past I have done some stupid things but I tend to try and take it easy now-a-days and I think that my license has been flagged and I always get hassled.

Last year took two officers from harbour side to court for harrasment and won.

:blink:

    • PRICE  : $1400 LOCATION   : NSW Central Coast FIT  :  All Nissan 350Z type Z33 and Infinity G35 Coupe. See delivery note. Hi, brand new, unused, still in the box.  ($1850.00 is what i paid ) My bad luck !!! I thought my right front  Bilstein was cactus so i bought the ST 's to replace all.  Turns out the right front is fine ( loose mounting after service  by a well known importer of Bilsteins ) So im selling the ST's. They are made by KW ( no intro needed ) . Iam on the Central Coast and im willing to meet up in Sydney metro, within reason and Newcastle.
    • Yep, yeah would need to do the flywheel although the 6 bolt NA clutch can handle a 20de if just wants to replace the stocker.
    • No it's fine. Heat sleeve is a thing. With oil running through it it is unlikely. Engine off heat soak can be a thing though. There is no way that you have a leak through the hose. That has pressure behind it and any small hole will turn into a large one in very short order. It is so much more likely to be leaking from the connection.
    • Really? That's piss weak. I didn't know they hobbled the shitboxen that badly. OK. So probs need to buy a flywheel too. But that's not too bad.
    • Hi all. I already posted some newbie-ish questions here and there but this will be my first "big" post. Last summer I went and fulfilled a kind of childhood wish, because I just thought I needed this experience in my life no matter what. The car I bought is a mildly modded 1995 BCNR33 Vspec. It was repainted to a metallic orange color all around and it had all windows reseated. Not so well done black respray in the trunk and a metallic black in the engine bay. From outside it looks very nice except for a minor paint error on the roof and the rear spats needing new adhesive tape. The inside is pretty clean and no broken plastics, missing or faded buttons. Even the adjustable mirrors and trunk antenna work like a charm. Despite a moderately long list of issues I don't (yet) regret buying this car. Most mechanical problems are just due to age, like worn rubbers here and there. The underside sadly has lots of corrosion, especially to the back. It looks like it either has been driven in the winter for a while or it lived near the saltwater in Japan, the rust is nothing terrible but it'll require to be looked after. Mostly panel gaps and all the mounted components underneath are a bit crusty, but I don't think anywhere has progressed so badly that there's going to be holes. Front right jacking rail is crushed and needs some care so it doesn't develop into a rust crater at some point. Worst part is definitely the strut towers. I thought they looked fine but after taking off the strut bar I noticed that it actually started bulging up on the passenger side. Probably would have passed on the car or negotiated down by some thousand Euros more if I had noticed this before buying, but here we are. Trunk area also has signs that there was a water leak to the interior once but nothing too crazy, I guess lots of Skylines had this at some point. As for the list of (known) issues, I'll try to make this compact. I hope the coloring is self explanatory. Mechanical: -Various busted or soon-to-be busted rubber bushings and ball joints. Will replace ball joints with OEM or better and bushings with polyurethane where possible. -Shaking steering wheel at above 80kph -downshift from 5th to 4th is a bit crunchy unless I rev-match, might just try to renew the shifter assembly, but it's not a priority issue -tailshaft centre bearing could use a replacement, is it worth going 1-piece tailshaft as it doesn't look too fresh all around? Chassis: -underbody corrosion on many spots and in hollow spaces, needs to be treated -corrosion on many bolts, hoses, lines, suspension components, subframes, will be treated when replacing of the bushings is needed as time goes on -strut tower top panels and some of the surrounding panels are rusty, so needs fixing. Will look into doing this with a buddy in the winter, otherwise bite the bullet and pay a professional -driver side door is misaligned to the body and needs to go a slight bit more inwards -both door windows are misaligned and have an airgap where the window meets the door at the B pillar -The Aerocatch latches for the bonnet have locks but no keys, need new keys. -driver side door window is kind of gritty and could use a polish -damaged jacking rails and front frame rails, from people lifting the car the wrong way, might have this fixed by a bodyshop Electrical: -Nismo tachometer is just bouncing and displaying nonsense, supposedly worked fine when the stock ECU was still in the car -An old Greddy boost controller sits on the dash which will be removed as it servers no purpose anymore. -a led segment rpm gauge is on the steering column, will probably also be (re-)moved once the Nismo tacho is working correctly -there was an attempt to make the sound system better by the previous owner but it was just inducing noise all the time, ripped out the amp and filters in the back, no music for now -trunk antenna goes up as long as the radio is on regardless of the mode, I want it to only rise if I choose Radio specifically or per switch -3rd brake light is a bit dimmer than the taillights but everything was converted to LEDs so mabye now it just seems dimmer? -reverse light flickers, have to test if that behavior changes when I fiddle with the gear stick. Hope I can get around changing the switch. -Left side taillight, blinker section has minor water intake and is humid after washing. Other side has a hole in it, probably for that exact reason. I'll probably reseal them entirely and plug the holes. Engine: -minor coolant drips on one or the other hose -rear turbo leaks oil onto the exhaust making the car essentially undriveable due to fire hazard -Oil filter relocation kit has an oil drip at the Dash lines, will probably make a new connection there and tighten real good and pray -throttle body assembly is slightly stuck for the first throttle pedal input after sitting for a while I'm always open to suggestions and advice from more experienced people, I'm sure half of this list is easily dealt with and just requires some time and effort to sort out properly. Once I have some proper pictures of the car I will post some in this thread, I just have to remember to take some more once I get the chance to. Will post updates when I have news on anything, I want to try to keep this thread as kind of a logbook as well. Ultimately my goal for this car is to just enjoy it. An engine rebuild is probably going to happen sometime as well, because it is old after all. It will never be fully new again, I am just not that rich. But I want it to look good, work well and not rot away while I drive it. I'm probably gonna spend a lot of money on this journey, hopefully not an unreasonable amount.
