under the EPA they no longer need warrants for a whole host of things that they used too 'suspison' is a very loose word with a huge meaning

lol cubes you must be as old as i am .used to go down there with my lj torrie with a 327 chev in it someone would see the cops comming and people would run to there cars trying to escape b4 they arrived .the old smithfield road house was another great hangout as well

Wasn't light green was it?

PICS PLEASE!

If it was green then I remember (and lusted after) your car.

Ah, the old Anzac Hwy car park - try getting out of there once the speed hump had been oiled up!

haha, Defect crack down at Glenelg. Colley tce and when really busy also Mosley st.

The police are calling it 'Operation Holdfast'. There intention is to stop people 'cruising' down Glenelg.

I work at cibo Glenelg and our staff park is right next to the defect station... being a skyline owner, i now choose to ride my push bike to work due to fear of defect.

its funny.... some guys the other day yelled out thier holden camira window "Get a car ya bum!" at me while i was riding my push bike to work.

Those were the days.. lol

Hands up for those that remember the car park at the end of Anzac highway Glenelg. :D

Yep.

I got to drive my Crown through there once after I got it registered with the turboed 2.8L, then I moved to Sydney for a year, and when I returned (1998), the car park was no more.

I remember being down there when there was 200+ dudes and the cops raided the place en-mass.

Good times

Howie.

My TT is in my little compartment under my cd player. Installed it in there so i can just flip the door shut and no body knows the difference. Will be where i put my E-BC if i use my current one.

I dont think 34 have the same compartments as 32s but worth a try

Cheers mate, been trying to find a single din tray holder to do something similar to what you've done - but it'll have to be one with a lid.

I might just put it in the glove compartment and lock it up with the rest of the electronics gear.

hot tip - avoid the aiport like the plauge - last 3 weekends in a row have been alcho and drug testing all people coming out of car parks - meaning if you enter the airport you cant get past without going through... im told this will be a regular thing now that the feds have moved over to let the SA Pol run the site...

i saw 3 imports sitting defected at the end of my work day...

howie - hg got pimp slapped by that korean girl lol

but those rims are indeed delicious. they protrude out the guards abit too dont they. i would have thought 9"wide would sit inside the guards. none the less, HOT! want to take photo's together? haha serious question btw

Duc - LOL... isn't that the girl from My Sassy Girl? She cracks me up man :happy:

The rims sit flush against the guards, anymore wider and they'd be well and truly sticking out of the guards. Doesn't seem to be a problem driving though, i can still do a full lock etc without scrubbing. Planning to drop the coilovers another inch soon.. so i'll see how that goes. For sure i'd love to do a photoshoot sometime ... both white cars, both skyline goodness.. just let me lower it a little -it'd look like a 4wd next to yours right now hehe.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
