that would be every muzzas wirst nightmare, a yellow vl turbo with interceptor rims and dumped on its ass!! :bahaha:

yeah theres also an XD with a 5.8litre that police use... i think its actually cars they own themselves or something... cause i remember a few years back cops were using their own cars for a while.

And which SS was it... a VX...

naughty naughty/silly silly.

And cops in their own cars ? Well... if they are driving around hotted up cars... can we get like a civil arreast or something and then go over them for an EPA on ... or a Canary ?

better yet BOTH

you ever tried doing it ?

you have to report it twice... 2 separate occasions before they call it in.

the first call is just where they note it down as a smokey.

second before they call it in.

Cops only do it once, SUKS

I mean i so regularly follow cop motorcycles down the Tulla from Melrose drive right down to Flemington road and they are always doing a min of 120. Sometimes as much as 140 with no light noting.

Just greasing cars as they pass them.

So i just follow them a bit behind.

Good luck if they pull me over.

If it's good for the goose it's good for the gander

Wonder how they get off with all these fixed camera's everywhere.

They can't ALL possibly come up with excuses for getting busted.

oh well. that's my thoughts.

if you'd had as much unjust trouble as i have had for what... just driving a nice and on P's, you'd not be to favourable either.

not to mention some other incidents.

just my mentality i guess. I'm all for death penalties and stuff. but i'll stop now before i upset anyone else.

PREACH IT BROTHA

I agree with you 100% on all counts...but Im a very right wing mother****er

I was driving home this arvo in a 60 zone obeying the speed limit. All of a sudden, this cop car came flying past me at 80+k with no sirens or anything. I saw him again at the lights and he took off really hard and continued to drive down the road at least 20k over the speed limit. Now how do they expect the average joe bloe to obey the speed limit when they themselves show such disregard for the law? I was disillusioned alright...

with regards to this whole thread, i live in the west side-melbourne, and before u judge it accordingly...I have never been dicked. even pulled over. my car is illegal however for some weird reason around my area st.albans, sunshine, etc... they dont seem to bust ppl for performance reasons, unless ur speeding, dragging, etc...

i dont know why but is there some sort of correlation between crime in my area and not being booked for illegal mods on ricey cars???

i think the cops are too scared to book ppl in our area. lol. i c shit bomb v8 and vl being booked but not rexies, or skylines, etc...

I think they recognise who we are.

yes, if cops were policing real crimes then they would have less resources to spend on pulling people over for relatively minor offences.

Depends where you are, my car got done away from my side of the city in like 2 days... after driving around Eastern suburbs for 6 months with no problems whatsoever. I thought I was safe, but soon as it was outside my usual pattern it got done.. hmm.

There are a number of factors - they don't like p platers driving those sorts of cars, and many would say its also a race thing attached.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
