this thread is turning into a spot the undercover cop thread.

maybe we could give them their own "Spotted Thread" lol :D

Fantasic idea AFTAMATH,

I'm all for that, it would be more useful than the current vanilla spotted thread.

Hows about it Administrators... Dan?

A bit off topic - but a cop is always a cop... as in they can still deal with you when they are off duty. They just get your details and send you a summons later.

Absolutely, They have a duty of care that requires their action off duty. What they cant do is make an accurate determination regarding the absolute speed of a vehicle. An officer can say that you were driving recklesly but not that you were doing 101 in an 80. Well i mean an officer could say it but any competent representation would make short work of that in a court room

".... I look up out the window and there is an orange bus FULL of police in uniform, it was like "ummm.. Richard" Then later we had a laugh how funny it would look if he were pulled over by a bus!
:D "Special Bus"

I wont attempt to speak for the Adminsitrators but personaly shouldnt we be trying to put a law abiding face to our scene. Surely the better the PR between import owners and the Plods the less harrasment there will be and therefore the Police can spend more of their time chasing junkie thieves and kiddie fiddlers...were's the love Diamondjo???weres the love?

Its a contentious issue I agree, however I think there is something inherantly wrong with undercover cars. Using marked cars creates a presence, using unmarked cars has an element of sneakiness about it.

Mr Keets, your soccer-momish "Oh won't somebody please think of the children" will get you nowhere with me :)

I agree that unmarked cars creates an air of deceit in regards to the police, the same as hiding multinovas. Having all the cars marked and all cameras CLEARLY signed would be more of a deterrent than hiding them. Now there is talk of FAKE cameras as a deterrent.. if it was that important to them to use the cameras as a deterrent instead of a revenue raising tool, then they should make the REAL cameras BLATANTLY OBVIOUS.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
