If it's a white GTR, which it appears to be from the pic, I see that car driving around my area all the time.

Good on them for setting a precedent - pity it cost them so much money though! :ouch:

Good on both of them.

Technology like hand held radar guns are used by police to not only make their job easier and safer, but so that the general community can be assured that the police are doing things in the right way instead of using the "experience and judgement".

Interesting to note that even after the officers in the sons case were proven wrong the magistrate still decided to rule in favour of the police and fine him.

Well, I have to confess that's Michael and I in the news and thats my M-spec, good work Adam.

I don't know if any of you listen to John Laws at 2UE I was on there earlier on today as well.

If you are really keen watch "a current affair " on 9 tonight . It should be on there as well but if they don't have it ready for tonight , tomorrow night .

I think If I ever meet you guys, I'll buy you a beer :D

Good stuff, and I'll tune in to watch tonight, or tomorrow, but you sure they wont turn the story around on you and say you guys are hoons involved with street racing and ram raids? :worship: hehe kidding :D

Cheers,

Chris

haha, I just put "R34 GTR" in the title of the thread for a laugh. I recognised your face long before I realised it was your car in there too. In black and white in the actual paper it just kind of looked like any other late model car at first glance.

I actually didn't expect to be the first one to post it so 10 points to me for being first to post and 10 to you two for getting out of the spiders web. Ok you can have 10 each.

Great work, good to see someone standing by what they believe in..

What GPS unit was in the car?

Ezitrak by Rojone, the best available unit on the market..

I may ad the car was a WRX STI , no longer in the family.

the funny thing is it certainly took them long enough to pick up the story! or perhaps it became that much more news worthy after micks case too? either way, I'm glad to see you get some credit and recognition for it finally. now maybe ask those knobs at ACA to chip in for your legal bills.... :worship:

My story was on ACA when I won the case about a year ago as well as to SMH.

Micks took a lot longer to conclude for various reasons.

"now maybe ask those knobs at ACA to chip in for your legal bills.... :D"

I can't comment on the above .

lol, fair enough :D sometimes I think out loud! I know I wouldn't be doing it for them for free after paying so much out of pocket.... I also wouldn't have had the balls to follow it through in the first place.

now that you remind me i do remember the ACA story at the time about your case.

Good work on this guys - like others have said, it's good to know that people are willing and able to stand up for what they believe in, and follow it through to the end.

I saw the article in today's paper, and was just finishing scanning the paper before I made a thread about it, but Adam's beat me to it!

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • 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
