Hope you didnt miss the camera car in the 90 zone yesterday south bound!

Doesn't count... he is always there... It's either the straight between Mooney bridge & Mt White weigh station, the bend in the 90 zone, or at Jolls bridge either on the left tucked away in the breakdown telephone spot or the between the wall in the middle............anyways I am usually doing the speed limit or at the most 5km over..just not worth it these days......

Its just like a fixed speed camera that damn wagon - its always there! ... oh and don't forget parked in the line of cars at Kariong after the servo...

They have camera cars in NSW!? I didnt know that!

I saw a Highway Patrol car yesterday in my travels, was waiting behind it at a set of lights, and you can see on the back parcel shelf that there's a camera on a small stand with all the wiring and stuff, and I could just make out the silhouette of one mounted on the dash at the front too...

they've been doing the whole camera thing for over 2 years at least.

whenever i get pulled over i always get out of my car, i get nervous/defensive if someones talking down to me for some reason and i end up nervously giving out jabs or babble on about stupid shit. so i get out and they always say, 'mate, just remember we've got a camera in the car, ok?'.

Was driving home from work at 3am in the morning down Epping road just off the Princess Highway underpass heading towards Lane Cove. Doing the speed limit, saw a HWP car going in the opposite direction. I look in the rear view and...yes you guessed it - he did a u-turn.

Followed me for a few hundred meters and then decided to flash his blue and reds.

Out of the car and he says..."good morning sir, random breath test.."

MY @RSE RBT!!

How can it be random when he did a u turn and then followed me for so long?

But i drive a Skyline, so i cant expect any better from our law enforcement officers. Good on you boys!

Yeah along that rd epping rd, they do alot of "random" breath tests, my brother is a red p plater driving a mazda 323 sp20 and they came flying out of a side street and pulled him over for a "random" breath test and pretty much anytime at night a red p plater is driving in our area they seem to automatically pull you over - fair enough as this will hopefully drive home the message about getting caught but they are in the same boat as us.... Mind you none of the police pull me over when they see me like last night a paddy wagon on my way home thru gosford caught up to me at a set of lights in the other lane then followed slowly for like 2mins... then gone... 3 mins later he re-appeared in the same lane and drove past me - Was full on expecting to be breath tested or pulled over but nah they musn't like the 4 doors lol

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.

      Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
