I'm kinda in 2 minds about the events of that night.

A. yes it's a bit disappointing that so many got yellows but hey we all know the rules. A bit over the top to bust so many thou.

B. I can fully understand why the police chose to that that action. Those burntouts right in front of the cops was stupid, dangerous and showed a real disreguard for the law.

When i was waiting in line to get out the first copper comes up, how you doing, love your number plates. Sort of broke the ice a bit i guess and we started chattin. He asks if i have any permits,

so i hand over that and he goes through the list.

Pods check, Gauges check, BOV check, Half Cage check, etc etc. Anything for the wheels (19 x 10.5) 285 all round.

No don't have permit for those.

ANyways we keep chattin and the vehicle inspector arrives. The copper i been talkin too tells him all sweet here, he's got permits.

What about them oversize wheels.

Yep no problem.

So basically the copper lied to the inspector and i got out no worries. Didn't even have to pop the hood.

Maybe it's because i'm a bit older (mid 30s) or because i treated the guy with a bit of respect i don't know but these guys probably would have preferred being somewhere else not there booking kids in the cars. Some desk jockey that wasn't even there would have made the call to yellow everything. Some skyline driver is probably tappin his daughter or wife and wanted pay back lol.

Anyways in my opinion its all part of the game. The good guys Vs the bad guys. I get a rush everytime a see a cop car, whether i'm doing something wrong or not. Will this be the time they pull me over and yellow me. All fun. If you can't afford to unmod your car to clear a yellow, don't mod it in the first place i say. It's a pain in the ass yeh but them the rules. From reading what goes on in the eastern states with regards to mobile epa and noise i think we are quite lucky in WA.

Would be interesting to know the reaction from the police if that car park had 500 harley davidsons and 1000 outlaw bikers there doing burnouts rather than 500 modified cars and 1000 kids.

I doubt any yellows would have been handed out for fear of starting a riot.

So the last thing i wanna say is don't blame to police, if you want to drive a modded car without getting hassled, go to uni, study politics, become premier and change the laws. You got my vote already.

    • There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater
    • Thanks for coming back to post the update, maybe it will help out the next person!
    • Going by the intake & injectors I'd be guessing it's a DE, check the head casting number, should be 5L8 on a DET, 5L7 I think is the DE number.
    • For future reference, if you need to use Deutsch connectors but don't have the proper crimper for the round style pins, you can get regular style crimp pins too
    • No. The castings are all the same. As you have the inlet off, simply measure the diameter of the inlet ports and compare with the freely available on the net sizes of turbo and NA. The NA ones are small.
