Last night i got pulled over, I 5hit myself because I was speeding and he could have defected me for my modifications on the car.

Cop “ Mate are you in a hurry?”

babylon“ Hi Sir how are you 2nite?”

Cop “I had to go passed a few cars to catch up with you”

Babylon “ I wasn’t speeding sir I promise”

Cop “ Is this your car?”

Babylon “Yes”

Cop “I know it’s a nice car and they go fast but you need to take it easy”

Babylon “Officer I know I was giving it a bit but I was always watching my speed I didn’t go past 60”

Cop “Have you been drinking ?”

Babylon “NO

Cop “ is there any problems with your licence or Car, What’s your address? Where are you heading to?”

I answered all his questions I was very polite. He did the breath test . He told his partner that he thought that im ok I haven’t been drinking. He said “ look mate im not hassling you but you need to slow down”

We started to talk about the world cup and talk about skylines and then he let me go.

Its funny because my cousin lost his licence the other day and I was telling him how I never get caught speeding.

Man was I lucky. My precision of cops changed tonight. From now on im not going to speed on public roads i want to start taking my car to the track!

yeah i dunno if its jus me but theres always 1 nice cop and 1 hero powertrippin` cop.. i ghuess your lucky u got the nice one :)

but yeah i've had a moment like that too for speeding.. i mean i did get booked but he was nice enuff to jus give me 15 over instead. and pretty much reasoned with me saying these cars are quick so u gta be carefull u take 1 look at the road and by the time you look at ur speedo again ur already speeding.. some good cops out there too bad the ones that think theyre heroes ruin the reputation of the police

talk abuot the world cup and other events hey??? I'm surprised that you didn't leave with his number babs

You say that now, but then comes the letter in the mailbox 2 months from now. :)

nope, they have to call u within 48 hours of the offense if they change their mind to notify you that you will get a letter and will be charged/fined =)

Yeah well I was all "cops are great" until some PMS'ing troll decided she'd book me for a red light offence the other night. That's nice and all, but

1. The light was Orange.

2. I had just put my foot down after leaving a driveway which is about 4m from the intersection line so I didnt have time to take foot off accel and slam on brakes and stop in time.

3. They would have been a fair while away as they took a few mins to catch up, therefore I don't believe they had a clear enough view of the intersection to judge whether I was too close to the line to stop or not.

I was nothing but polite and explained the situation but she still had her heart set on booking me. Therefore, she can go f**k herself.

the copper that pulled me over when i was running my car in was a chik. she had some massive nuts on her too.

she shut up when i said "you wanna EPA me go for it, but i cant rev my car over 3000rpm. if i blow my motor you're paying for it".

i didnt get epa'd.

hahaha gold.

I generally find that if you are polite to cops and are honest and humble (not to the point of digging your own grave tho!) you get off lightly. If you give them any lip or claim you were doing 40 when you were doing 120 then you're gone.

Cops aren't idiots, and they have a really tough job to do (back when they used analog UHF I used to listen to them on occasion and it's a shit job sometimes). You will get an absolute c*#@ occasionally but most of them will give you a fair go if you don't antagonise them.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
