i got my car towed by the police last night......i went and cut a few laps around this red neck town called Traralgon....

I was on my way home when a silvia pulled up next to me and drifted around the corner.... so silly me followed him thinking i might be on my way to a drift spot...havent found one yet.

anyway i drifted around this corner behind him and next thing you know the cops are on my arse with their lights flashing and got me for a couple of things, i now have to wait for a court date.

had to wait 2 hours b4 the tow truck come and took my car away.....

anyway i have to wait 48 hours and pay $490 to get my car back.

like i said to the cops i do 1500 km a week in my car and never speed or anything and the one time i do something silly i get caught. hope this is a lesson to all u guys.

:stupid:

Ah the Morwell vs Traralgon battle! I know Morwell is seen as the same red neck town by Traralgon :laugh:

I don't understand why you would drift around a corner on a public road? The rest I understand as I have followed people before in my younger days for places to meet, ask about their car or a mod on it. As long as you learn from it and the main thing is you didnt hit anyone or damage anyones property.

BTW - One flaw I notice, you don't become a drifter on your first attempt round a bend following a silvia :stupid:

Yeah ... the same thing kind of happened too me around 2 weeks ago.

Feels odd giving the lady $490 just like that!

You should see all the cars in the police impound lot!

The guy was saying it's way too full they hardly have any room left,

spotted some supras and s14's but apparently 80% of cars in there are

holdens =x.

I'm yet too receive my court summons im expecting one of those

12 month good behaviour or 3 month loss of license... =(

Dam that sux. Yeah i was in traralgon last night. The cops might have been a bit annoyed cos they where dragging someones ass into the cop van at Ryan's Hotel. LOL that was funny. threw the guy onto this bonnet of someones car then three cops cuffed him and away he goes. So maybe they been having a bad night.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
