I know how to beat the system but, for Guys like you Tasty you would have o loose your plates somthing you don't want to do. But make it legal never get defected. I know all the things they can defect you on. I only have a Turbo timer they can defect me on. Yes they are defective, hard to explain why but simply you take your key out car engine should stop turbo timer does not allow it so it's a defect. Air/filters on EFI cars that remove the Air Box simple defect. unless you have Engineering papers Defect Defect. Want to stop Defect's know what's defective Talk to me I know them all. Just as rule if you get pulled over and you have no Cat or something big never let them take you to a RTA inspection it will kill you. In fact I know of cars that should be off the road but look normal or safe to you. Some of the Laws and rules Sux but then again if we had better laws on cars and rego that made it fair we would not have to worry about defective cars. Tasty you car is defectable it's not funny, keep everytihng above 100mm and you don't have problem with it being low, single wiper You stuffed with that. and a emisions test will fix the air filter. One Day a Cops wil lsay full RTA inspection and your gone. -------------------- Winning is Winning Fair or not Perform on the Day It's wasn't Me RODHOG PROFILE mx68u Admin Group: Admin Posts: 1128 Member No.: 1 Car Profile: Available Status: Offline Posted:Oct 29 2002, 01:43 PM i was thinking about punching out my cat.. apparently that can improve turbo spool... i mean i was thinking cats dont have any effect after what 5 years of usage? dont they some being effecitive so i figure you wouldnt pass and emissions test either way... anywayz tas71e's car has been written off Tas71e Local Slut!

Rodhog Moderator Group: Moderators Posts: 365 Member No.: 19 Car Profile: Available Status: Offline Posted:Oct 29 2002, 11:18 PM As long as the car is not written off I don't really care about Defects I just hate hearing people who have some SSS dropped ilegal and go on about it but i also hate cars that are very defective and still on the road. You old man has proberly gotten letter from my old man and his organizations or similar. My old man has former Fed agents for friends, worked with the former police comissioner, not close but some what mde him look better. But hes got nothing to do with Cars or RTA, Mind you The RTA i don't like them, they don't like me either. I just hope you never worked at Campise or Beverly Hills RTA centers. -------------------- Winning is Winning Fair or not Perform on the Day It's wasn't Me RODHOG PROFILE Tas71e Local Slut!

Cordial Newbie Group: Members Posts: 30 Member No.: 113 Car Profile: Available Status: Offline Posted:Jan 29 2003, 11:55 PM I've been defected a few times. I got defected in my dad's AU falcon. Bone stock, brand new and they defected it. I agree, keep it legal. But also up here in Darwin with the way the laws are made, if the cop is in a bad mood they can defect you for whatever you want. I have had a few defects on my cordia, and gone to the MVR and they have ripped the sticker off without even looking at the car. Because they know that cops are hard on young car enthuists. But I also think that people with riced up lancer's etc that sit so low they can't get over speed bumps shouldn't be on the road. And the owners shouldn't bitch when they get defects. -------------------- "When the clutch drops, the buillshit stops."

All because i was polite to the cop adn my mate was... not... -------------------- If bottles are for babies... How come your the one crying?

Bassfreak Newbie Group: Members Posts: 4 Member No.: 219 Car Profile: Available Status: Offline Posted:May 8 2003, 09:12 PM Iv'e been defected for not having an engineering certificate for my extractors in my cortina. The funny thing is, that's all they got me for, they could have got me for a few ore things, I think? Who knows, I guess it depends on what mood the copper's in, right?

Group: Moderators Posts: 329 Member No.: 133 Car Profile: Available Status: Offline Posted:May 8 2003, 10:25 PM Man the cops over there sound like a-holes. I can't believe you get a ticket for being too low. Your cops would be like giddy little school girls around me, there are all kinds of vehicles that are so low the plate is bent from scraping the ground, I see sparks a flyin on the highway all the time. -------------------- Yes it's a turbocharged FE3, (soon on the bottle) and NO you can't drive it WARNING: Does not play well with others (it seems others have a problem with losing) My Beast QUOTE posted by 90tx5 cheers you r like the car god on this forum Rodhog Moderator Group: Moderators Posts: 365 Member No.: 19 Car Profile: Available Status: Offline Posted:May 10 2003, 02:10 AM funny to go over this topic but I recently had a feild day with some idiots had an arguement over cars= basicly I knew what Iwas talking about they didn't= EG they think if you put a BOV it gives you 40Kw's and at the wheels Anyway cops came by they all got done cops looks at my car under the hood looks at me says nothing. Walks off, comes back RBT's me and then I go. It's all about attitude plus it's hard to do anything when you have a history of gettign lots of them suspended and demoted -------------------- Winning is Winning Fair or not Perform on the Day It's wasn't Me RODHOG PROFILE mx68u Admin Group: Admin Posts: 1128 Member No.: 1 Car Profile: Available Status: Offline Posted:May 11 2003, 07:29 PM yeah i agree with the attitude.. some ppl are just asking for it when they come across a copper.. but then again its pretty much up to the cop.. if his has a shit day or if his just a sadistic bastard there really isnt anything you can do... but act kind and hope to get off easy
