I GOT A SPEEDING FINE!

DETECTED SPEED: 67KM/H

ALLEGED SPEED: 65KM/H

THIS IS THE GREATEST INJUSTICE IN THE HISTORY OF AUTOMOBILE OWNERSHIP!

IT IS QUITE CLEAR THAT I WAS SINGLED OUT BECAUSE I CHOOSE TO DRIVE AN IMPORTED VEHICLE!

SURE, SOME OF YOU MIGHT ARGUE THAT THE FACT IT WAS A FIXED SPEED CAMERA MEANS I WAS NOT SINGLED OUT OR HARRASSED, BUT WHO ARE YOU KIDDING!

I PLAN TO FIGHT THIS UNTIL THE VERY END! A LETTER WILL BE SENT TO THE PRIME MINISTER EXPRESSING MY DISGUST IN THE WAY THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HANDLED BY THE VICTORIAN POLICE DEPARTMENT. I FOUND THEIR COMPUTER GENERATED LETTER TO BE QUITE CONDESCENDING AND JUST PLAIN RUDE!

WHO WILL SIGN MY PETITION TO HAVE THIS LUDICROUS SPEEDING FINE REVOKED, AND THE ISSUING CAMERA DESTROYED?

Dezz, don't be a soft c*ck. If you were really serious you would organise the following:

Protests outside Howard's Sydney residence.

A consumer boycott of everything.

Court action in the Hague siting the labour (State) & Liberal/National (federal) parties for crimes against humanity.

An appearance on foreign TV trashing Australia & questioning everyones right to live there (Apart from yourself)

An ongoing media campaign speaking out about your innocence, how long you have had to suffer from this terrible injustice & describing your deteriorating mental condition.

Lastly, have you thought about running against either Howard or maybe the Premier at the next state/federal election?

Dezz for PM.

Your ideas are intriguing, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Forgot to mention the ACCC investigation.

Just for everyones information: You don't get the newsletter until you have gone through the initiation. It is BYO trefolex, too.

Gotta go, being watched... :P

I was caught doing alleged 109kph in a 100kph zone on the Westgate Fwy just before Christmas. That was very generously rounded down to 107kph.

For me to do that, I would need a speedo indicated speed of 115kph or slightly over!! I dont mind opening my car up but stuff doing anywhere like that, I go way way out in the middle of nowhere!

Decided to write a polite letter to the issuing officer and received a reply informing me that it was obvious a clear offence had been committed but they would waive the fine and 1 point, so I didnt have to pay.

I still to this day doubt it was me speeding but I didnt get the picture incase it was marked as an admission of guilt.

By all means enforce 40/50kph zones but a freaking 100kph zone on a freeway in broad daylight, good weather, not mega busy and well surfaced.

UK has 10% + 3 tolerance and only puts cameras in areas that are non national speed limit i.e 50mph, 40mph or 30mph zones as it should be IMO. Traffic cops police the speed limited roads

This was my first offence too.

So the moral is, fight it. :P

    • 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.
