Nah
No offense cops = duds all round.
I says this loudly n proudly and i dont care if its public u know.
Getting pull'd ovah for all the wrong reasons is juz bullshit.
Getting pull'd ovah for the right reasons fair enuff.
Defecting a car cause an intercooler isn't mounted correctly/hidden is a bloody joke. A car being a 1mm to low is a joke, no offense the lower ur car the less roll u have meaning the car is actually safer cuz your closer to the road.
Honestly i don't know with these cops..

haha not much can be done when not even myself can say what my real limit was. but i should have said the drinking laws are different in nz and because i was skinny i felt the couple of beers i had were probably near what is an acceptable limit for my size, so i thought perhaps i was just over limit, but i didnt want to take that chance. but yet ive seen my mate drink like 8 beers and not be over the limit so really no concern from me my friend. but thanks for the heads up.
and do agree, was going to say, cops should be focussing on other issues. 3 murders in burleigh gold cost in 7 months said on news last night, made me thinkg really lots of more hardout crime goes on.
but in all fair ness to the cops around here, my general run in with them has been reasonable except for 1 cop at indy trying to get me for jay walking. i just think because ive had my run ins and now try to lie low key it has worked, but no doubt if i got some 20"s, lowered, did a few things to make me more attractive i would no doubt expect to get pulled over...yet being pulled up should always be random, no targetting which unfortunately happens when the government and media hype up certain issues....the big issue this decade has been boy racing..thanks fast and furious

i usually find it pretty successful to be very polite to the cop even if you want to go hectic on him and snap his neck, they usually respect you back and let you off.

not true...if you lowere the sussy so teh roll centre is above the centre of gravity, body roll gets progressively worse the lower you go...
but i get ur point dude...1mm is a joke...
i got pulled over the other day for speeding...i deserved the fine, cop was fair. but i was just lucky. way too many stories of cops being dicks for me to trust this one experience

I've worked the industry and lowered with chop springs is a fairly common practice, so your statement of lower to ground = better is not necessarily true.
Other than that I've had no problems with police, I drive sensible with a lowered car on p plates and I live right down the road to a police station.
Why hello there

Yeah I suppose the number plate [FAIL] does send across the wrong message haha.. Ahwell.. Wont be putting that on my civic 
You will never beat a cop. A cop is always right. Good luck to them I say, treat people how you wish to be treated.

Courts are generally in favour of common sense and law. The people who dont get it, usually dont get the law!
Just remember that everyone has the right to make a formal complaint if they feel they have been inappropriately dealt with, whether it is by a cop or council worker etc....its easy, find out what station they're from and talk to the superior about what happened.
Remember, people find it hard to be objective in the heat of the moment!

Catching people for speeding and pick on modified cars.
They do have different roles now, but I think they (government/police, whoever puts them into the specialised forces) have been focusing too much on the highway patrol section. I see highway patrols, and unmarked cars everywhere, surely they don't need that many of them. Time to re-train cops to do other work too.
But with that said, I haven't had any bad experiences. Actually all my experiences have been pretty good. All I've had is a little mention that my exhaust is too loud, nothing about my ride height.

That's because the highway patrol are the ones that roam the street. General duties and detectives only go from station to the crime scene (and to get a donut). They are usually parked at the station car park. So we will see many more highway patrol cars than general duties cars on the street.
