Is it just me or does NSW bitch more about the cops than any other state. I've looked at the other forums and they hardly talk about "how bad cops can be" it also seems however that we have heavier feet and better cars ( hence all the defects, which we also bitch about)

Just my two cents:stupid:

I was out on a photo shoot last night for fast fours & rotaries in the pyrmont area, when a paddy wagon pulled up and asked the usual questions, who's cars were these (there was only 3), what are you doing blah blah blah ... then asks for our licenses. they recorded our details including phone number because there was complaints of people stealing number plates in the area...

which is all fair enough...

both these cops were actually pretty cool (so this is not a bitch!:D) one of them, and i dare say was a friend of "2rismo" on this list as i later found out, wondered over to my car and pointed out how easily it could've been to defect me. he continued to tell me that he hassled people depending on the attitude of the person and of course the reason why they pulled them over in the first place...

bottom line, if your going to do something stupid be prepared to face the consequences and most importantly if you dont show respect, dont expect to get any in return :D

hehe... you met const. walsh by the sounds of it. he can't be raised for comment at this hour but, yes, i've educated all of my cop friends to be nice to skylinesaustralia.com members.

glad to help.

question, do you have a club sticker on the car or was he just in a good mood?

Last night we where taking photos. The highway patrol guys stopped and gave us a few questions, then started slagging out tosh's car. Other than comments at the MR2 they where nice guys.

You just have to be nice to them, not overly nice but just polite and remember they are doing there job. If you are really polite, and he is being unprofessional then seek advice and do something about it.

I have never been hassled by a cop. (Touchwood) Dont be a smart us to them cause then they have ammo to fire back at ya. You will not win that arguement.

These blokes are doing a very dangerous job and are there to make the community a safer place. Show some "Respekt".

    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
    • Skyline R33 Series 2 sedan tail lights in excellent condition.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
