Pollution Control Disconnected ...I got it re-connected

Dam cops!

So yeah... they can't touch me now because everything has been approved by the transport department.... :P

Does anyone know if this would be acceptable in NSW? Also would having an Apexi Power FC & Hand Controller be an issue for defect, if pulled over?

I was driving along the great western the other day coming back from Penrith. I was sticking to the speed limit when from nowhere came a patrol car from behind me. It must have been doing at least 100 to catch up to me (in the 70 zone past kingswood train stn.) He tailed me for a few minutes even tailgating me. After that he switched lanes & sped off past me.

Nice to see my taxdollars being spent to pay such fine officers of the law. :blink:

LMAO Get use to it, the police now are more corrupt than the gangster days... You do realise you can pay off a cop, I was in QLD and got pulled over for speeding in my Truck, would have lost my licence, but flash 500 bigones in front of his eyes, and off I go!

:rofl:

cant imagine it would work for all of them, but i'm sure most of them would take it!

always getting pulled over and warned about being defected for doing absolutely nothing wrong.... Fookstick coppers.... makes me want to get my moneysworth when they are not around..... heheheheheheheheheh!

ie what they dont know wont hurt them!!!!

Oh yeah they discriminate on who you are, what your occupation is, where you come from etc..... its hardly a fair system!

do you have a limited amount of time between being issued the defect(by the cop) and having to report to the EPA(where you get it cleared)?

I was defected twice by the same copper in two weeks!! The first defect notice wasn't even due yet!!

:O

ive been pulled over about 16 times in the past 2 months for no reason. they just check my license and rego and breath test me. they check if i have a record or wateva and then send me on my way. best thing to do is cooperate and not be a smart ass as i am becoming. but you cant help it sometimes. they just get on your nerves. ive only ever been pulled over for a defect once in parramatta (and whoevers from around dere would know dat da cops are ruthless there) and once in brighton le sands for doing a burnout at the lights that turn onto the main road across da beach dere. overall as a skyline driver you just have to accept da fact that cops are hunting for p platers driving done up or high pwred cars.

That guy seems like a pain.

I gather by your username + tabs your a girl?

That's pretty full on, especially putting in the H-Pattern and the light defect.

C'mon <_<

Also, last week my dad and I drove back his R33 GTST from Melbourne Airport to Sydney (Central Coast).

Saw 7 police cars in total..

Constantly doing 120km/h in 110km/h zones. Only got stared at.

We were on a road doing 120 in a 100 zone (it changes throughout the way up.. from 110 to 100, to 110 etc..)

Saw a Highway patrol car blended in, it was too late.. (Female driver)

Didn't turn around.. :P

  • 8 years later...

hi i just wanted to know if you guys get pulled over for no reason, like for defects or whatever, or do the cops have certain requirements to be met before they pull you over

This needs to be resurrected - and I wished I didn't have to report this - honestly.

* HWP officer

* Stationed at Hurstville of late

* Tattoos down her L arm

* Penchant for defecting JDMs

* She's caught at least 4 guys with her li'l thingy that measures 100mm off the ground - and that's what gets her going.

* She's confrontational and won't listen to reason.

If pulled over on, north or south of the M5, try and stop with your front wheels on a hump - and that's for starters...

I get followed by certain anal members of my local hwp, but i have only been pulled over three times, all for speeding, 1 warning 2 fines.

All three times complimented on my car. I keep my car exterior fairly stock bar stickers and exhaust to annoy slow drivers in my area.

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
