hi all.

ok then, I'll make it simple.

when I driving in my resident area last night, I find out there have a car in front of me and with high beams on, it totally makes me blind.

I think that was a taxi there waiting for his customer, so I flash my high beams once to remind the driver turn off his high beams while waiting.

but I make a mistake, that was cops car, not taxi.

then that cops do a u-turn, pull me over, and said "why use the high beams to flash me, do you see my lights is flashing (I think he talks about the red and blue lights) and we are doing some investigation there?"

but the fact is I never know that was a cops car because they never flash with the red-blue lights, and just with the high beams on, that makes me blind, thats it.

what is the reason to pull me over? to show me some power they have?

The points I want to say is, the cops always doing well to giving peoples fine, using the laser gun and pull someone over, but yes....they dont seem to be where they are needed.

hi all.

Im here just want to share a story of mine about the lovely police officer.

tonight, I drive along the way to back to home, when I almost there(in the resident area), I need to turn left before I reach my townhouse, in the time Im turnning, and I saw a car stop on the road with the high beams on, that makes me blind, I cant see anything in foront of me, I think is a taxi waiting for the customer, so i just flash once to remind the driver turn off the high beam, but oops........its a cops car.

the only thing i can do is continues to drive (anyone expect I should stop my car and say sorry?)

but when the cops finished their job, they do a u-turn and pull me over, ask me WHY flash them, do I see their lights is flashing and doing the investigation?

I really want to ask to the lovely police officer, do I look really stupid? I will still flash you to remind you trun off the high beam if I see your flashing?

they did not flashing at all, just with the high beam on and makes me blind

I think they always do a good job for giving peoples fine or using the laser gun (also pull me over to asking that difficult questions)

but what about the moment I really need them to help?

my friend use to be lost everything in the golf ground (wallet, phones etc...) and they call police to help and make a report

we waiting about 45mins for the lovely police officer, but finally we only have 2 words "can't help"

I give up :thumbsup:

edit ur post, ur a shame to asians

    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
