From what I understand if the notice has "Recorded Speed" above is correct but if the notice only has "Alleged Speed" they can claim to have measured the speed another way.

Going to court is a lucky dip where most times you will lose...especially if you don't have a baristor...and don't believe that it can't get any worse, if you have a history they can increase fines and penalties.....but like most of the others on here I'm not a barristor, cant even spell it, but unless your first stop is to see a barristor don't waste your time going to court.

I've managed to get out of a lot of fines over the years and I reckon the golden rule is make sure you know the law regarding the offence at least as well as the cops then you know if they have made an error or if there is a loop hole otherwise you are relying on luck & wasting your time.

yeah... if he had a radar... you've done your dollar... if he didn't SHOW you the radar.

got to court like i am. The officer HAS to show you the read-out otherwise he's breaking the law.

There is also the method of guestamation or something... but sounds like they got you more ligit than when they pinned me.

That's why i'm going to court.

They calibrate the speedo pretty accurately and the calibration can in fact be adjusted, so that i think can be used as evidence instead of a radar.

They will always believe the word of police officer over that of a pleb unfortunately, especially if two officers are there vs just your word. They know that too.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
