how much the engineers report cost you? And what did it consist of exactly? Did it cover emissions?
0 likes
no emissions weren't a problem, cos the exhaust didn't need a cat. it was pretty expensive, but still worth it since i never got defected

when you say expensive how much is that lol I possibly have to get one soon and ive heard some bad stories about getting that report

why everytime ya see a cop worry about defect unless ya scared of gettin pulled over why are ya gonna get pulled over if ya not doing anything wrong just dont be stupid in ya car and ya wont get targeted its as easy as that. When i first got my license i was drivin stupid thats why i got pulled over so many times but now i learnt my lesson drive normal no cops it that easy f*#k life before life f*#ks you

well it was a couple grand on top of the mods, but that was cheaper as the engineer was a mate, and he did the engine mods as well... there are some sharks out there who won't fill out the report fully or will charge way too much but generally most are alright

a couple of grand.... f u c k that for a joke, its basically free in NSW And FLBLFY- Cops hassle anyone who has a tough car, especially ones with a P plate up aswell... You know that cops dont need a reason to pull you over anymore? They used to have to witness you cominting a traffic offence first

seriously... its not that easy to be regency approved... aftermarket ecu.. bigger turbo... external wastegate... boost controllers... bov's... top or low mount extractors... anything that vents to the atmosphere... i.e some oil catch cans... all that sorta stuff you will get defected for! if you want any sort of decent power you need all that stuff, so its not as easy for us.. were not trying to discriminate here dude... its just the whole point of we want to cruise with what we know/like and love... if that means 5 or 10 cars so be it, i know you prob love your rck cruises and thats great! but we like to keep to ourselves... well most of the time :P

flblfy and ripvc202 **** up youre pissing me off, is it just me or do you 2 keep preaching the same sh!t..... My car is not Regency approved for various reasons...sue me. Quote: why everytime ya see a cop worry about defect unless ya scared of gettin pulled over why are ya gonna get pulled over if ya not doing anything wrong just dont be stupid in ya car and ya wont get targeted its as easy as that. Ive been defected for driving down Main Sth Rd at 930 on a Sunday morning doing 65 in an 80knh zone got pulled over by a laser copper and defected! That blows your theory out the water.....care to explain why he pulled me over and im not lying in anyway at all... Ive had experiences in the past where co(ksuckers have done skids and carried on and its drawn attention to other cars including my own unnecessarily. You say we have nothing to worry about, well, we do! If we are anywhere near this sort of sh!t then the cops will just go for the first modified car they see. If you did a burnout and I was parked on the side of the road watching, you speed off and leave me there while the cops pull in and start going over my car, would you come back and fess up to your acts? Would any of those punks in that club? Me thinks not. So a big **** THAT to RCK cruises and your attitude in general. Theres something oh so Elizabeth Downs about the way you 2 come across....

jeez you guys take stuff personal, how many F U C K I N G times do I have to tell you - I dont give a s h i t whether or not you ppl r on rck! And I aint from anywhere near elizabeth you tools, im from valley view! jesus, get over yourselves and if you cant get s h i t done to your cars right or legally, the dont p i s s and moan about how it's everyone elses fault you get defected! ppl like you are the ones that make modifying cars properly so hard and expensive! try shutting the hell up about how everyone else is wrong, and realise how stupid you're making yourselves sound! and wyndup, rather than tellin everyone else to shut up try it yourself! instead of crappin on about how everyone else is to blame for you gettin defected, try doin stuff LEGALLY! or better yet, you want a fun car thats not road legal? DONT DRIVE IT ON THE F U C K I N G ROAD! think of that one?! btw calais-vl, i know what you mean about how difficult it is getting cars approved and legal. but it's just other f u c k s who dont seem to realise it's their own problem getting it sorted, and it's their own fault if they get defected. if they didn't have defectable parts or modifications, cop attention wouldn't worry them. jesus f u c k i n g christ, it's like trying to get a point through to a bunch of autistic kids with no idea what english is!

haha, nah i dont actually do burnouts with the car. and the air cleaner isn't a modified piece, the vp came out with cold air induction. the alteration of air filter is legal, and the air box is a holden standard part (not a home hacksaw job) be it an SS part. if it were on a car without cai as optional or standard yes it would be defectable, but mine is a-ok
