i bet his mum was proud.

his mum see's the cop car pull up and her son get out.

"where is your car?"

"still at the impound lot"

"i thought you went to pick it up"

"yeah, but then i thought i'd show off to the cops and did a 6 metre burnout in the impound warehouse"

..... kid wakes up in hospital with a black eye, missing half his front teeth and his mum is standing there with an icepack on her knuckles.

its the same principle of me sitting in my driveway and doing a big smoking burnout.... cops could be sitting out the front of the house watching, but they wouldn't be able to come in and actually do anything (from what i understand, anyway, don't take this as gospely) due to it being performed on public property....

well, they could probably ask you to stop, due to noise/smoke pollution, but i believe it would then be up to the EPA to fine you for the noise/smoke, not the police...

although that is the rules, you can do whatever you want in your car as long as its on private property, im sure if the cops seen you theyd still giv you a ticket, you know what theyre like.

yeh it just says he was 'nabbed', not why or what for, as on private property u cant get issued traffis offences i dont think... but they probly got him for reckless endangerment or something like endagering cops. i dont get why he was retrieving his car without a licence, even worse yet the cops let him get in the car and leave (well at least attempt too)

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
