I was just reading an article in the newspaper today about how my local sheriff's office are now using modified Dodge Chargers for "reckless or agressive" driving.

So that got me thinking...

What are Tokyo, Osaka, or Nagoya police using these days for the same purpose? I recall seeing pictures of R34 GTRs, GTOs, and FD3S RX7s painted up in police colors awhile back. Anyone know?

there's a thread about japanese police cars that we all posted pics in a while ago... might come up if you search (make sure you search for all threads instead of just 30 days coz it was a while ago).

There's also a couple of pics on the interweb of a JGTC looking R34 in police decals... it also has a fake machine gun mounted on it... if you come across it, its not real, was a promo car for a japanese police car driving game.

The meanest Police car I ever saw 'in the metal' was a Crown Athlete in the Panda color scheme with the bug deflector and roof mounted strobes.... boring.

The gayest police car I saw in the metal was a Toyota Vitz (Yarus) with the panda colors and the roof mounted lights. With two fully uniformed and gun toting cops in it it was a something to behold >_<

yet strangely I want to paint my haw-chee-raw-kew to look the same.

Can anyone read that kanji on the side? Does that say "fujiwara tofu"?? :laugh:

Funky- I'll be sure and check the older posts--do you remember the title?

The cop cars around where I live are mostly really scary Toyota Crowns or keis, although apparently there is a turbo Aristo that does the highways and I've been pulled over by a turb B4 Legacy.

Yea Takumi has quit the tofu business and now drives for the Miyagi prefecture police team.

I like the BNR32 cop car. all class.

justin, can you tell me again what the little shields are for on the bonnet? are they bug deflectors or something? I've had it explained before but cant remember.

Hahaha look what I found:

Wait...Ayu Hamasaki is not an adolescent boy!!!

PS- Did you know that when you buy one of those Le Seydes, it comes with a free bag of candy and a pair of oversized aviator sunglasses? True story.

I want a La Seyde based on an S15 chassis. extended wheelbase FTW. altho I'd be so tempted to stand on the side sill ghostrider style with a tommy gun on one arm and a cigar hanging out the side of my mouth.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
