This is the main reason why i dont go out between Thursday to Sundays around the coast, to many cops even if you are doing nothing wrong and your car is not defectable you still get hassled.

But on the other hand there are alot of idiots who attract the cops and give us a bad name.

Save it for the track.

this is part of the reason why i am trying to keep my car looking stock. the only things i could get defected for is cutting the front reo to fit the cooler in, and the exhaust noise.

but the thing is that they book people in performance cars for having illegal mods. they should be pulling over old cars to make sure that the brakes work, the lights work, that they aren't leaking oil quicker than they use fuel, there isn't rust all through it so as soon as it hits a bump half the suspension falls out.

and on the note of being booked in standard cars, there is a cop in town that loves booking people for the stupidest things. a guy in a brand new patrol ute got booked because his number plate wasn't visible from 45 degrees looking from the top. it was in the factory position, with the factory tray.

mad082... if ur referin to the cop 'M LITTLE' then i know what your perfectly talking about in terms of him booking people not no reason. he clearly has no idea what he is talking about nor has an idea about any modification requirements allowed.

God I hope that isn't why Nicky sms'ed me :happy: Cause I wasn't out

And if your interested the cars that attended the dyno day I left early after a good feeding frenzy, a supra, 5ILLE, KFR34, Silver GTR and engine, his Sweet 4dr33 & engine, and her R33gtst and engine, a killerV8 & its Turbo and a RebelV8. Sky line

this is up in gympie <hides head in shame>. but the problem is that he knows EXACTLY what is legal and what's not. my old boss got booked for having the towbar on his gt forrester because it slightly blocked the numberplate.... if you were trying to look at it from dead horizontal.

the cop is very polite in how he does it. he doesn't act like a prick in how he talks to you, like some cops. but apparently he has to move town every few years since he pisses so many people off. he is the sort of cop that would pull over other cops... or his own mother.

yep, very much like this cop. except this cop didnt know what he was talking about. he gave me a fine for not having a modification plate. clearly i dont require a modification plate for any of the mods i have done and he was happy to mention that he goes through the courts atleast 3 times a week cause people fight the fines he hands out. well, clearly this should state something to him.

Mr KAOS always causing KAOS ha ha unlucky mate....

but shit love the new combo hooks up real good.... can't wait to see the batles on @ jambo 32's everywhere...

GO 8 SEC GTR's & GTST's you know u can do it........

umm yeah thats gotta be the hottest GTST around too.... guess the boys in blue were just doing there job

IDEA- we need a KRISPY KREME in brissy that outta get half the cops off the street :P;):huh:

autobarn dyno day? which autobarn has a dyno?

The autobarn at slacks creek held a dyno shootout comp day, not very well advertised, only instore and on a couple of other places.

I drove down the coast on the weekend... drove down sat nite, went to BWCP, drove back. Went back down Sunday, went down the spit, back up etc. Not a problem. We saw them pulling a few cars over tho. Bit bloody dangerous the way they were doing it if you ask me!

I had one cop kinda follow me just round a few back streets round my house. But hey, he forgot to indicate, I didnt do anything wrong so that would have learnt him!

    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
    • Run some injector cleaner through it I had a similar issue that plagued me for months, even tried replacing the cat. If one or more injectors are blocked up the ecu sees ping so pulls timing and makes the tune rich overall, you'll see black smoke coming out of the exhaust and like me assume it's running rich but it could only be one or two cylinders  $10 bottle of injector cleaner and the next time I hit boost it pumped out a huge plume of black smoke, cleared the blockage and then ran great, if that's not the issue it's only a cheap thing to try haha
