It would go down in history as the most ill conceived car ever built.

Obvious Aprils fools joke is obvious. If they make this I'll eat my hat. Edit: Just read the article, don't I feel like an ass. Or peanut as someone put it....

Also, don't they just put a H pattern sticker near the gearstick, I don't think the stick itself has to have the pattern on it.

I would have thought it would be worth a road trip. Camden>Gold Coast. You could do that in your sleep.

Nissan certainly have a lot to answer for in the case of the ZD30 Patrols.

Just to clarify, I said there were going to be 2000+ mobile speed camera sites, not 2000+ mobile speed cameras. The justification for their introduction was to monitor traffic "red spots" only, which numbered around 140. Now that they have been introduced under that pretense the RTA wants to increase the sites by a couple of thousand, no biggie......

Just wanted to see if there were any Kings of Chaos players here. C'mon, own up!

Hasn't accepted yet.... Frowny face

Just added you on Facebook.

Also, the businessman in me (proverbially, there is no man currently inside me) thinks that there could be a new market created from this. Head braces that keep your line of sight exactly perpendicular to the needle so to avoid and parallax error causing a speed misread. The only downside to these would be that you may be mistaken as an arrogant jerk at the drive thru for not making eye contact to the slaves working the cash and food delivery windows. I'll shoot off an email to the RTA discussing my idea, see if they have any suggestions. Maybe they could become mandatory. That would be good for business.

Anyone want to form a vigilante anti-RTA army with me? ** My views are not necessarily the views of SAU or any affiliated groups, clubs or businesses.

I knew that " Introduction Math for Paper Additive Consultants" class would pay off one day.

Formula at the end is pretty much the difference between the speedo reading (v1) and the actual speed (v2) should be greater than zero and less than 10% of the actual speed plus 4 kmph. eg. If the speedo says 66kmph (v1) and the actual speed is 60 kmph (v2) then v1-v2=6, which is greater than zero. Then 0.1*60+4=10, which is greater than 6. So in that case the speedo is ADR approved for that particular test. If v1 and v2 are swapped, that is if the reading is slower than the actual speed the difference is a negative value and therefore less than zero and not ADR approved. I actually think that that is the wrong formula, I think for class M1, passenger vehicles, it should be 6 kmph not 4.

I'm glad someone pointed this out. They (speedo's) can show you going faster than you are, but not slower, not even by a little bit.

Also read earlier in the week that the number of mobile speed camera sites will be increased from around 150 to 2000+.

Hey mate. Just wondering how long you have had this for?

Ladies. http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/dealer/details.aspx?Cr=0&R=10124214&keywords=&trecs=1&__sid=12A582619F72&__Ns=pCar_RankSort_Int32|1||pCar_PriceSort_Decimal|1||pCar_Make_String|0||pCar_Model_String|0&__Qpb=true&tsrc=allcarhome&__Nne=15&seot=1&__N=1216%201246%201247%201252%201282%204294704818&silo=1011

Never mind.

I hate this ambiguity that exists in this thread with regard to the offender. I am a strong believer in "personal responsibility", being responsible for your actions, the things you say and the decisions you make etc. To write off someones car and then simply reply with some weak statement like "oh it's a racetrack buddy" is a real cop out and a real shame. So lets get to know our guy(s). So the car is known as DriftZ, it is usually driven by Dan Mackie, and from what I can tell is owned by a bloke named Greg Stevenson (http://www.linkedin.com/pub/greg-stevenson/12/B99/497), who is also the owner/manager of the cars major sponsor Sureflo exhaust in Ingleburn NSW. Here is their website: http://www.surefloexhaust.com.au/frame1280x1024.htm They are both respected members of the aus300zx.com forum. Gregs username is Thunder and his profile is as follows. http://www.aus300zx.com/forum/member.php?u=3585 I had a bit more info on Mr Mackie, but since it seems that he wasn't driving I won't post. However, the owners info is all still relevant, his car, ultimately his responsibility, so yeah shoot him and email and let him know what you think and if you are considering of getting a new exhaust might want to think twice about Greg and Sureflo.
