Officer - "we Heard The Screech And Saw Your Car"


Recommended Posts

so the other night my mate and i were goign to his house.

We are sitting at the lights (over the northside of bris). My mate in his VT did a burnout, straight afterwards i turned off to take a shortcut to where we were going. this car follows me into the backstreets. so i guess that its a cop and drive on my best behaviour. 2 minutes later he pulls me up. and says "Why did you do a burnout back there" to which instantanously me and my other mate replied "it wasnt me/us it was the white VT". the cop stands there for a couple of seconds dumbfounded and then replies "Oh we heard the screech and saw your car, well drive safe." what b|_|LLsh@t. how ridiculous is that. atleast i didnt get fined THAT time

bloody cops

b*llshit yes...get used to it, just think yourself lucky you weren't fined.

Note you:

- Didn't do the burn out

- Drove responsibly afterwards

- Didn't smart off to the cop

You handled it perfectly and got the result you should have. We want to cops busting down on the street hoons. While we can be blamed by mistake like in this case, when its handled right, what happened to you should happen.

I concour.

But if you go look at the other thread where seems a few skyliners are having a bit of fun on our streets, kinda understandable.

Thing is the hoon laws are reasonable suspcion. So if the cops really thought you did it, the law is there to back them up.

OH NO SKYLINE DRIVERS ARE BEING DISCRIMINATED AGAINST AGAIN

The only reason they pic on us is because we drive imports, if it was a aussie made car then they would probably said good burnout mate, wat r u running under their.

took the words out of my mouth...stop being sarcastic, stop whinging or better yet stop posting.

That is a load of rubbish.

Its only because of the type of car it is, its a 2 door turbo charged RWD. Doesnt matter where its from, they are still going to pull you up regardless.

I bet SS commodore drivers do or have copped in the past.

I bet throughout the decades, the 'hoon' car of choice has been 'picked on' and pulled up more than any. E.g. monaros and gt's in the 70's, commodores and the early turbo things in the 80's and so on.

Doesnt matter where its from!

You should have said but officer, this is a GTR its 4wd, it cannot do skids... :happy:

Or you could try, officer its has traction control, it cant do skids...

Or you could try, officer i dont know how to do skids... :yes:

Only reason you got the blame is because the stupid VT couldn't produce any smoke. Tell your mate to have the common decency to at least smoke it up next time and that way you won't get the blame.

    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
