Warning To Stay Away From Princess Hwy Oakleigh Friday Nights


Recommended Posts

cops are people though....and some people like cars :)

welcome to SAU Graeme :P

I've got the vic membership form on my comp, so I'll attatch it for you :P

and Tas04, bit of a silly post there mate....i've seen the drags at dandenong, and if you have too, you cannot sit there and say they aren't ridiculously dangerous.

EDIT, i had the form uploaded, but apparently its an old version now...sorry

Thanks for the welcome. It will be good to meet fellow import driver's. By the way everyone at my work dislikes my car."Why would you drive a rice eater" is their attitude. They just can't get over Nissan winning bathurst and love their V8 "Aussie" cars. I don't know another cop that drives an import.

Hahaha! :)

BTW if you don't mind me asking... Have you ever been defected by another cop? :P

I've heard about him. It wouldn't make a difference what I do. There are a couple of others there that also book cops. very strange.

That should be a warning to everyone stay away from knox if your in a import if he sees you say hello EPA/NOU.

But saying that, I can't imagine anyone else EPA me. Maybe I'll back them up one day and then they would remember that so hopefully they wouldn't EPA/defect me either.

Also if I go TMU would help as look after their own and TMU are the ones that give out the EPA/NOU predominently.

Yes I have being EPA before I joined though in my old TTSoarer as it was extremely load exhaust. 98DB I think. Just changed the system lucky I was already planning on doing it.

Just learnt recently but you may be aware but EBC/ADJ BC are EPA issue.

I know, well I guess I have the best job to have my car as a daily driver.

IMO the EPA laws are far too restrictive anyway. I guess I won't be EPA vehicles anymore. Unless they have a bad attitude.

Welcome to the club good to see a member of the police wanting to be active within the club. If I joined the police id certainly have a similar attitude. I dont know about here, but back in WA, there were quite a few police who were members in various car clubs, my old neighbour back there who was a police officer drove a stunning 2 door STi and joined me on many cruises.

On the note of police disliking "rice burners" I was at a tyre shop recently and one of the fitters there has a VY SS with a supercharged Gen III. He was at the lights and a skyline lined up to him so he gave it and got pulled over immeadiately after the lights. The copper pulled over both vehicles and goes to the guy in the commodore - Your lucky im a commodore fan, now piss off while I take this Jap shit off the road.

I personally felt scared when I heard that.

Welcome to the club Officer gdogzgtr.

I hope your stay is a pleasnt one and you don't get too many hacks having a go.

Would be good to have a police escort on some cruises eh??? :)

Welcome and cheers on the heads up, me and a couple of mates are heading to fountain gate and may go down princess highway bout 10pm and 4am tonight, have to make sure we stay of there!!

(Even though well be in a VW golf :P )

I suppose we all have to be extra careful now with pics we post up of our cars, well need to blank out plates and parts of engine bays :P

Good to see a officer on the board posting, and with a nice car as well :D Come down to the meetings on every month, 3rd tuesday of every month i think. If your not busy tomororw you should come up to Shep and see what our cars can do off-street :)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
