    I have a mate that had a r33 that he kept dropping on its guts and got 3 defects over a period of time for being to low and he eventually sold it as he was told something along those lines and didn't like the car at stock height. possible that he was bullshytd but he seems to think it was legit. ask the regency guys to get a definate answer as the cops dont always know what they can and cant do. I have found the regency guy that comes up to the barrossa to be more than reasonable. Best of luck with it.

    Fuck I hate this kind of stuff in SA, even if you ask the guys at regency they could just rattle off a wrong answer. It's all too ambiguous in the favour of the police.

    Unfortunately it's not.

    I know of a couple of cars that have been blacklisted by TSA for being defected too many times, and not able to registered in this state again.

    One of them was that pink Lexus "DEFCTME" Go figure. I wouldnt have believed it if I hadnt seen the letter from TSA with my own eyes.

    I still do not understand why people have number plates like that. I saw a VL the other day with the plates "copbait".

    Yeah, I saw the lexus at a show somewhere, and he had the letter stuck to the front window.

    Like, REALLY something to be proud of mate.
