Hi Guys,

Just a quick post that this weekend the cops are having a giant blitz on anything with wheels along pittwater road on the Beaches.

Last Night I saw more than 40 highway patrol cars (2 of which pulled me over within 500M of each other) along a 2km stretch.

They were everywhere and pulling everybody over, i was lucky to get home alive!!

Both cops that pulled me over were reasonably nice, the 2nd being a young lady who was very nice but the first guy was a bit of a tool, telling me that i can remove my guages on my own, or with a defect.

So anybody driving 'round the beaches tonight - be VERY careful!! I have never seen anything like it before!!

yeah BY BY said the exact same thing

the thing which pisses me off is that i have a ****box car but it has a 4inch muffler and is VERY loud. i dont even want to spend money taking the damn muffler off...im cheap

but still i would prefer to spend the $50 or so taking it off then getting 2points taken off, from my Ps, and getting a $200-$300 fine. knowing my luck ill get a fine on the way to the exhaust specialist.

I've never had a problem with female cops, especially the young ones. Was nearly gunna ask one out one night :D

I couldn't imagine that many cops, round town on saturday nights up here is usually pretty good cause all the cops focus on the M1 (highway between brisbane and goldcoast) and the Gold Coast.

But why do they need to spend $40,000 + on a highway patrol car (SS or XR8) to sit on the side of the road pulling people over ? Oh that's right, they're out to try and pay for em :uh-huh:

Damn Sydney cops are crazy!, we never get hassles here in Adelaide, lucky to see a 1-2 cops on a friday or sat night cruise.

Sometimes they do setup a defect station or 2 , plus a few radar guns ,but nothing more than that.

Remind me to never drive my Skyline to Sydney, actually saying that they probably wouldnt bother me as to much paperwork for an interstate car :D

Not good at all, hope things quieten down for you guys soon.

Crazy stuff.

Jimbo: Pranks gauges are same setup as yours by the sounds of it.

The cops on the beaches were nothing short of insane... i have never encountered so many police. We were again informed that 80 police cars are working the beaches this weekend... every corner, every side street and carpark i passed there were more flashing lights... and thats no exageration. Luckily myself and R33deviat got away without being caught however one of my friends who was crusing with us got done... the result was 2 defect sheets and a 45 min long shouting match between the cop and the driver.

Bring on the quiet exhausts!

Man this new law has just gone to the cops and rta's head!!!! :rolleyes:

Get this for a fun weekend now the new laws have come in!!!

Fri morn get woken at a very unreasonable hour of the morning (10:30am) after a HUGE night at greenwood. No one home so get out of bed to answer the door in just a pair of boxers. Guess who was standing there................ no takers??????? An RTA inspector ffs!!!!!! As soon as i saw him i felt like doing this....:shake: but being half asleep i decided against it. Neways he asked me am i so and so and do i drive a R33 Skyline rego no. yada yada yada. I say yeah why????? Apparently i had been "randomly selected" *cough* B.S. *cough* for a full inspection of my veichle!! Agreeing to this (unhappily) i go get some cloths on and show him to the car. Well 45 mins later after he combed every thing with a fine tooth pick, writing down stuff and ticking and crossing other things on his pad. I was expecting for him to say "defect this defect that" but he just kept his mouth shut and went by his business. He made me start it up and rev it aswell which i did but no enough so a certain venting device "whats that:p " didnt make a sound!!!

So after all this he left and said "we'll be intouch" and that was that!!

All i can say to this is sorry but WANKERS!!!!!

After this i thought well nothing else can happen, HOW WRONG I WAS. Fri night with BY BY and one other Skyline, we were apparently driving "stolen" veichles according to the cops, around the northern beaches! Basically it was a very interesting night to say the least, there is nothing more terrorfying than seeing more than 40 highway patrol cars in one night.

Neither BY BY or myself were defected LUCKILY, although Matt wasn't so lucky.

So it was a very fun fri for me!!!

I am not a lawyer or anything but methinks I would have politely refused his request and gone back to sleep.

If they are gooing to carry on like this, let them set up a time mutually agreeable.

JMHO

"after a HUGE night at greenwood"

i go out with heaps of mates to the same area..north seedy leagues, north point, greenwood then blueberries

anyway, a guy came up to our house and said "you have been randomly picked to fill out this survey". My mum had no idea what was happeneing and thought it was compulsary. the RTA came into OUR house and made my mum fill out forms. these forms said "wherer did you drive to today...how many KMs travelled....name and number of place travelled too" This is no bull****. we had to tell them all the cars we had, how many KNs they had driven and where and when we travelled to. anyway my dad gets home and isnt a happy chappy about the situation and he ALWAYS speaks his mind. it was so funny cause he rang the RTA and said "How F#cking dare you F#ckwits comes into our house and invade our F*cking privacy. F%ck you.." this went on for a while. the guy was going to pick up the forms in a few days but after they dad rang up i dont think we'll hear from them in a long time.

ohh yes the RTA does suck penis.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
