Above say only VE's used at the moment are for undercover...anyway, last night I was at the international airport and there was cops there (with a marked VE) with the handheld trying to ping people coming into the drop off bit, speed limit being around 15 or 20kmh? I didn't see anyone get done either in the hr or so I was there.

haha i was there last night, didnt see em though, was about 12:30 though i guess, acidentally swung the back end out leaving cos there was a wet patch from sprinklers :P

All wang no stang. Who cares about Sergent Dolittle. Im sure he likes chasing down little kids for the media. Theyll be real stoked to be on the front cover of the news paper. Wankers. How abotu catching drug dealers and helping society>? Nar probably already on teh dealers payroll. FKRS. So you you dont like Pod filters ay>? how about crack heads? there are more crack heads than pod filters but who the f*k is counting?

Theres intelligence hard to argue with.

Besides I think the people who worry most about cop cars etc.. and whether they are in combi vans or ve's is the ones who drive like mad men.

though it does blow if your only a few km's over and just simply forgot the speed limit but if your going that fast to lose your licence in the middle of the public then well. You get what you ask for, and give the rest of us import owners a bad name.

I work in east perth and go to the BP on East Parade for smoke each day, this just happens to b where all the cops cars come to fill up there cars.

A trick i have seen pretty often on un marked cars is they will have a couple "coffee chill" or "96fm rocks my socks" stickers on the back window then on the parcel shelf to hide the black box with the red and blue light in it i have seen fluffy toys and stuff or a construction helmet restin ontop to hide the lights. sneaky bastards!

mike

Seen a un marked blue Commie with a spiderman doll with sticky hands and feet above the black box in the rear, as well as drive safe and Diver Below sticker on the back window,

See him a bit on GF FWY

Mike

some of the newer plain cars have the antenna's on the rear parcel shelf.. thats what the construction hat is there to hide. :)

BTW - love the avatar big col!

was thinking the exact same thing hahaha i want to do it now too

Yeh thay had left by the time I left, which was around 10:30-11ish

Saw some cops at Giant Nissan today getting out of an unmarket new Camry..

Isnt it illegal to have those sticky plush dolls on your car windows? tsk tsk :P

Yeah I had a cop come in with his personal car to trade - it didnt have a rego sticker on it. >_< nauti nauti

  • 3 weeks later...

I'm pretty sure you'll also find all police and other government vehicles have 6 rego stickers (i.e. June rego expiry) something to do with the governments love of order and being able to keep track of budgets etc.

2 cops were seen at a northern suburbs import dealer a couple of days ago checking a s1 r33 gtst front bar to see if their undercover rader and whatever else there trying to hide under there would fit

just a heads up

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
