Hay, that Rolla cops it! Foot flat, hit rev limiter, go to 2nd, hit rev limiter, go to drive! I drove a GTS-X for 6 months! I am nowing driving VN 5ltr. I speed EVERYWHERE! Just lucky I think!

heeh well i got outta a 6point fine too I was tailgating an unmarked police car, 80 in a 60 zone, 80 in a 40 zone and i must admit to wearing a very short skirt that day haha

I have a radar detector but even thats not going to save you at more than 10kms over the speed limit. They just dont give enough warning.

Gotta agree with Dan and GST-T VSpec, guys very rarely get let off for anything, while a female friend of mine was left off for 120 in a 60 zone while on P's a few years back. I get busted for 5kms over the speed limit in a 100 zone. LOL

Well all this talk about fines and points... bah, got pulled over today by a cop with a radar gun on my way to work... 73km in a 60km zone, $100 fine and 2 demerit points... bah :D Least he didnt say anything about my intercooler, chopped front bar and number plate stuck to one side :P

I have lost my license a couple of times over the years but not recently. My demerit points tend to hover around 6 - 11. I tend to get got by multinova's doing 70 in a 60 zone ...you know those crazy duel carriageway 60 zones that could pass for freeways.

Anyhow ...I am convinced it all depends on how much driving you do. I do about 30,000 km a year so I guess my exposure to multinova's is greater than the average person who drives to work and stays there.

lost 12 points and licence in the first year of owning the car (92 n/a silvia) , lost licence for 3 months, and they gave me another year of p's when i got the licence back.

Lost licence roughly another year after that.

Lost 3 point during that time before they came round to get my licence, so i was down to 9 before i even started driving again.

Lost another 3 for some stupid 50kmph cr*p.

Crashed silvia in freak driving mishap at collie racetrack.

No fines whatsoever in skyline since, i think i'm a changed man.

:)

still speed though...

Damo.

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
