  1. The only thing they can ping you for, for being to low is if the CHASSIS is less than 100mm off the ground, your kit could be 1cm off the ground and they cnt do sh*t unless your chassis is less than 100 mm, they can only go by STRUCTURAL points, exhaust, motor, diff, kit etc cannot be taken into account when measuring the legality of a car.

    I have had endless cops try to pink/green sticker me but you just gotta not be a pussy and show them whats up. If you know your car is legal then tell them, tell them to pull the ruler out their ass and get on their f**king knees and measure that sh*t. Get all the people outta your car before they do this though...

    IN my opinion cops will do anything to get lowered cars off the road, show them whats up and stick up for yourself, argue with the pricks till they let you off, thats what i do.... and ive never had a sticker. FTP B)

    Then again in saying that, i would do the same and rip any piece of crap car off the road IF it had choppies or was illegally modded. If you do it properly there is no problem. If its done illegally be prepared to pay. But in your case you should not have had any trouble (if 100mm chassis clearance is met)


  2. how much did you pay just out of curiosity, i like the fact that these cars have so much accessible power, but their handling kinda lets them down, but i guess im just a noob to FWD.

    Good choice, looks good and has some good mods in there, good luck with your new car! :D


  3. ill get back to you on that got to get a price from my guy who does the the polishing and final little touch ups 4 me,

    thanks

    Choice, that would be great.

    Could you not line it with something to make less heat emit through the metal? also is it completely open underneath ie where does it let air in from? Could you take a pic of it out of the car?

    Id probably make one myself, if i knew how to weld and if i had the time/resources.....

    Cheers

  4. Yea I got my fair share back off them though, 7k for some minor frontal damage aint to bad :)

    I look at it as getting all my money I payed in fines back! B)

    I still have no respect for the NZ police though, i have nothing against the people that are police officers but the system they operate on is far sub standard and eventually will lead to this country turning into the likes of compton.

    My 2c


  5. My m20b20 has about 170k on the clock when i got it, it had done 140k auto tranny poked about 150k and in went the manual. Got a m20b25 parts car which is pre f/l and has 320k on the clock but i think it has had a new donk put in at some stage as it looks like a f/l motor. and wear on the motor doesn't seem like its done that many k's, doesnt smoke whatsoever and doesn't miss at all. A mate had a f/l 2.0 litre that did about 370k and went through two auto boxes and just about shat a manual in the time he had it (took it from about 130,000 to 420ish driving from h-town to south auckland everyday) but the motor was still going with no smoke or anything when he sold it.

    Best ive ever seen though is a GLXI Toyota Cressida that my g/f's dad had, bought it new and its still running at 430,000 odd k's!!!
