  1. Fella's A couple of things. 1. I was told by a number of persons that in NSW (not VIC), it was actually "illegal" for speed cameras of any type to take a picture of an oncoming car, i.e. a picture of the front of the car. I think there were a number of reasons for this including; a) Privacy laws in NSW. b) Motorbikes only have a rego plate at the rear. 2. Do we know at what point these new mobile speed cameras in NSW begin or otherwise measure your speed?? The older fixed style cameras as you know detect your speed as you pass the camera itself. Do the new mobile cameras begin to detect your speed as you approach them, and take a picture just after you pass it?? 3. Further to points 1 & 2 above, does the same apply to traffic on the opposite side of the road travelling of course in the other direction?? So far I've passed 3 of the new mobile speed cameras, which I've spotted a reasonable distance as I approached them, giving me time to check & adjust my speed (if necessary). In all cases the little sign has been placed just in front of the car. In all cases they were black Ford Territory cars with a thinner blue & white chequered stripe across the back. Would appreciate some learned & accurate feedback on the above matters. All the best fella's Cheers AP
  2. Digger. Like I said, I am new to this site, and yes I did spend quite some time on Google searching for info. I'll have a look at the above thread - thanks. Yes, I already have adjustable cam gears - forgot to mention that initially. Cheers Adam
  3. Hi folks. Am new to this site, although have owned 2 great Skylines over the past 8 years or so; I now have an R34 GTR '99 non V-spec; Recently fully rebuilt engine (UAS Sydney), as previous owner(s) was not a believer in oil changes. Nitto 20thou o/s pistons & rings. Apexi Power FC D-Jetro. Nismo oil cooler kit. Full 3.5" stainless system from turbo's back. OEM turbo's fitted with metallic turbines. Nismo 600cc injectors. OEM intercooler. Boost peaks at 19psi and then drops off to approx. 15-16psi at the very top end. 520Nm @ rear wheels (4400rpm). 316rwkW. Low range torque & punch not as good as my earlier single turbo RB25DET R33. Considering a modest turbo upgrade to see if we can achieve perhaps around 350rwkW and additional midrange torque, but don't wish to suffer much further lag. Not interested in only chasing kW's at the top end, but still have a meaty torque curve. The Garrett "-5" twins have been recommended, although some say the added lag and potentially less midrange may disappoint me after spending the thousands $$. Had a nice HKS GTRS turbo on the R33, and it was lovely. Don't really want to fork our extra for twin HKS units above the Garretts unless it is truly justified. Have reviewed quite a few posts on this site on the RB26DETT turbo upgrades, although personal requirements differ, and even similarly spec'd cars seem to get measurable differences/results. Any constructive advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks fella's. Cheers Adam
