Agreed.

If this is indeed true - this is shocking behaviour from Victoria Police.

Great PR and great incentive for organising safe, legal, off-street events - really encouraging... fools.

i guess they have had enough, i mean we all sit here and say its distgusting behaviour and they are pricks and being arrogant but look at how the hoons @ noble park acted. they rioted after the cops tried to stop illegal activities. how is it that we think thats ok, but the cops enforcing laws and making a strong presenece is all of a sudden "bad" and "disgusting" etc

im just looking at it from their point of view

if i was a super intendant or senior dude

i would have asked my team to goto chadstone too

maybe not break up stuff on purpose but certainly

show the presense and ruff a few feathers up

after all the concept of the police in the old days

was to have a presence and police stuff before

any crimes were commited, not after

yes paul, thats right take the side of the cops, doing things like this for no real reason = bad and stuff

if your actually doing something wrong well i encourage it. Get your car towed because u were speeding doing burnouts or something well then thats too bad for you.

But wasnt he taking the car to a show ??? hardly doing anything illegal, hell ive seen cars sitting at autosalon sometimes with canarie stickers on the windows, its just wrong ...

i think what james said sums it up, nicely and short

what was said about it on the news report?

did the media portray it as more "hoon" related or did they actually discuss what REALLY happened?

from what ive heard the media seems to have supported BBT

the media arrived after my club had packed their stuff and left (after police defected one of our cars), and i missed the news so im not too sure but thats wat i heard.

who really cares about taking sides

if you have illegal modifications on your car, then you have illegal modifications. just because he an enthusiast or that he was in a public car show doesnt change that. its no different to having your car in autosalon. the car still has illegal modifications

Understand your point

but at autosalon they at least wait outside in the streets to grab u when ur leaving

which gives people choice of being able to tow their cars out

now having it parked and on display and having them enter and start giving out defects

Edited by MissyK
but theres no law that says they cant walk around autosalon

checking out your engine bay and submitting you to epa etc

assuming the plates are on, then they can do that

I suppose yes, which is why some people remove their plates or put different ones on etc

however, we were told to keep our plates on on thurs nite, otherwise we'd get in sht for having them off

i guess thats the part where owner onus applies and you accept all responsibility for what ever happens for having your car on display.

sure it sucks they broke it up, but if you break the law, well then yeah you break the law. its like complaining about going to jail for robbing a milk bar.

im sure they didnt defect cars that had nothing wrong with them and only cars who violated rules/regulations were defected.

i dont see how it being a demo or promo car makes it any different or magically gives it some special rules. "oh but its the demo car" so what

rally cars have to conform to all kinds of rules and regulations for driving between stages, they dont get a magical clause that allows them all kinds of illegal stuff.

again i totally agree with you. but lets just assume that the sponsors cars and some other owners cars there - that they dont use it as a daily driver. They should still be able to display their cars. If its not a daily driver and is a hobby car or what not, it should still be ok to display the car and lets assume they organise it to be towed and they dont drive it at all.

people will not pay to go to a car show or bother to visit (if free), if the cars there are completely legal aka STOCK. I can see a normal car out on the road.

I still blame all this sht on the hoon crap thats happening. if some twits out there were not complete morons then the police wouldnt be so strict. Its those idiots who drive like complete dix who ruin it for everyone else.

I have not once said anything bad about the police who came - and hello - i was there. I think its a little unfair they came INSIDE. They could have waited for us to drive out.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
