there probaby was some tihck book thrown together by vicroads, but it didnt include alot of imports

anyhow.. the copper who pulled me over had this list with cars and specs... and i asked him where he got that from

and he replied "adam petett from knox tmu formulated the list"

and just to add to that,.... i live no where near knox!

nah its got all different ecus, boost controllers, bleed valves, wat stock intercoolers look like on each import with photos etc.

can some1 post up pettets list of illegal cars to own as a p plater...

just de badge your car so it doesn't say gts or gts25t or gtr and most cops will look at these pics in the books and not have a idea on what car it is . so they can only guess if its legal or not, unless they see your turbo....

thank god ive got a full license and dont have to worry about these issues

^^^ not that easy when the police pop your bonnet and read your vin plate

anyways guys,.. petett and highpowered vihicles isnt what this thread is about.. sorry for pulling it in another dirrection

i'm not sure if that Petett fellow is allowed to simply pull together his own list and enforce it. surely it must go through some sort of legal process. Whats not to say then we could just put together a list of cars cops couldn't drive... (every car).

it be funny if someone could photo chop a cop car hooning... burnouts and donuts and overtaking. lol

I think the club needs to issue a statement to the media to distance ourselves from this irresponsible behaviour, stating our policies and approach to driver training and enjoyment in the appropriate venue (DECA or the track).

That would go down really well..... what with all the speeding fines and defects handed out on cruises.

I'm not a big attender for cruises so you will have to be a little more detailed. Certainly Speeding isn't condoned on cruises and this was never about modifications, just stupid driver behaviour.

Sorry Caz, I take that as even though it's club policy not to speed or drive dangerously on the streets during club sanctioned activities, because people do it anyway then we shouldn't reinforce our position and attempt to continue the education of our members.

Some would suggest our silence would be an admission of allowing or encouraging such activity when this is simply not the case.

"six-feet tall and bulletproof" - short cop

"If you've got the technology, then use it" - people do and they get fined for it or even get harrased for suspected phone use when there isn't one in the car!

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
