T.o.g.s Targeting Now In Werribee/hoppers Crossing/altona Area


Recommended Posts

They are targetting these 3 area's, Altona not so much as Werribee & Hoppers, pulling any modified car over.

Watch out if you drive an import around these area's, ths month they are cracking down hard here.

not that i doubt anyone with a total of 17 posts.. but how did u come across this information to come to this conclusion?

run in with the law so they must be pulling everyone over?

u work in the police force? (although i doubt that anyone in the police force would refer to them as T.O.G.S as im sure they replaced them with T.M.U)

or just a "heard it through the grapevine"?

LOL wat!!!

ive lived in Hoppers for 4 yrs now and ive not once heard of shooting or a murder.

I lived in geelong for 15 yrs prior to moving here and now yeh, u do hear about murders and shootings and ofcourse drug dealers there but drug dealers are in every suburb its just that u dont hear/see it.

i mean the real western suburbs, sunshine, st albans, albion etc...

Dandenong, Frankston, Springvale, Boxhill,

Moot point buddy.

You're more likely to get your car stolen in the West, that said, you're more likely to be murdered in the East. Crime is sporadic and yes, social factors to come into account to a certain extent, but the socio-economic status of various suburbs in the East and West varies. (Compare Dandenong for example, to Mordiallac, or Sunshine to Taylors Lakes....vast contrast in socio economic status!)

In simple English, there are good and bad suburbs, in both the East and West.

They are???

Ive had my R33 in Hoppers for 14 months so far and only been pulled over once and nothing happened, was just a "random check"

Can i ask how u know this XXX-33???

seen them busting people on old Geelong rd and today while going to get my exaust fitted on my car an exaust centre on Old geelong rd confirmed it by telling me that they have been driving up and down and around hoppers werribee area hunting people with modded cars.

i put this up to give people in this area a heads up.

buddy, im just giving a heads up, im not posting this for no reason.

i know that williamstown always has cops cruisin around

i never take my line out there in summer, they pull ANYONE over.

theyve also put poles up along the esplanade in altona and williamstown so no dicks can drag up n down all day...

Seeing cops pull over a couple of people in imports and then coming on here warning people of the "blitz" is not really a reason.

Read your title of this thread and then read what you wrote and if u still wonder why no one cares or why people doubt the accuracy of your information... eat your own head.

I was pulled over there as well a couple of years ago in the gazelle, I was 'driving too slowly'.. (because we were trying to find the house that was vacant) on an empty street at night.. pfft.. apparently there's a power station or something there that would be the #1 terrorist target in melbourne.. but that's only according to the TMU chick that pulled me over.

I think there's something to this socalled 'blitz' but it's not only around those areas.. I haven't been hassled once around here (northern burbs) until last week and a few days later I personally saw about 4 cars getting defected in the same area, all on the same day, including a ricey supra which was pulled over right in front of me. And then 10mins later the same cop was sitting on the side of the road, ignoring a bunch of people speeding/being 'hoons' etc and obviously waiting for a ricer to drive past.

Also been told by a workshop that they're getting everyone around here for ground clearance atm. Maybe they're trying to pump everyone's tax returns back into the govt.

my mate was there last summer and he reckons he saw cops randomly putting canarys on any parked cars that looked dodgey (not just imports) they left notes saying they needed to report to epa or someshit...i never go there, too much of a pain in the ass....

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
