Hi all,

well I think it would be super helpful if there was a thread listing any defect/RW stations you come across, so we can all avoid the area. Please post in this thread if you see one and state: location, time, if you know who they are targeting specifically and anything else of importance.

Please keep all whoring/chatter out of this thread, thanks.

To start us off...

Location: front of Nunawading Police Station, pulling cars off Whitehorse Rd

Time: 2:30pm

Alternative Route: Use Springfield Rd

Targeting: unknown

Finish Time: still going at present

Can I hijack this post with temp cop car booze car locations?

Saw a marked Commo wgn setting up on high st outside the Iris Buffet in High St, Glen Iris @ 11pm last night (Fri) to BAc ppl. Maybe a new thread is req'd for this.

As usual, you wouldn't see them til it's too late (if you exited the Monash Fwy outbound.

I personaly feel driving with a minor defect loud exhaust bov cooler etc.. etc is one thing but drink driving you deserve the full extent of the law.. and I understand thats a bit of a lop sided view but Im sure many of the people here agree with that too.

^^ I agree 100% although you can recieve defects from going through booze buses, so yeah I think we should let people know about everything and everywhere cops are setting up. If you drink and drive I hope you end up in a gutter dead or a paraplegic.!! :bunny:

I do agree that you deserve to be caught when DUI, but...

I was ushered into a booze bus session one night. Passed the BAC test with flying colours and as they told me to move on another officer waltzed up and told me to pull over.

I failed a roadworthy inspection and copped a canary. :'-(

Yep same with Michael, did the booze bus thing and blew a 0.00 and was told to drive up on the median strip and got defected for stupid b/s.

So I think booze buses should also be posted due to this. Would be good if you guys could state if they actually appeared to be defecting people or that you're not sure.

Dave - just keep it in the same thread. Thanks guys, especially Espo.. I would have driven down that way if I hadn't seen your post! :(

OMG I just got waved through a big booze/drugs thing in the R32 :thumbsup: Miracles DO happen!

I almost had a heart attack when I saw them and was dreading standing in the cold next to the open bonnet..

Not sure if they are actually defecting or not tho, but a ricer commodore was pulled over and standing next to his car..

Location: Mahoneys Rd Thomastown (both sides) - between like the carwash and freeway overpass I think

Time: 11pmish

Alt Route: Use freeway - Western Ring Rd is clear

Targeting: Mostly commodores pulled over

Finish Time: still going at present

There was a DRUGS/BOOZE/RWC station set up last night on Mickleham Rd, just as you turn into Greenvale. I got breath tested, passed ok, then told to go onto median strip behind an STI. The STI was getting a reaming from the cop, so I thought the fun would soon start for me.

The cop was actually quite reasonable and fair however. He looked under the hood, tested the exhaust noise and sent me on my way after a little chat him and I had. No issues for me!

Cheers,

Dan :rolleyes:

"Innocent" would generally mean not committing an offence. And, last time i checked, speeding is an offence. So 'innocent' is probably not the best description. I don't know what you got canaried for, generally a defective vehicle/unroadworthy etc, also not an 'innocent' offence. :)

Also noticied a bit of activity out the Tullamarine area lately with regards to defect stations.

Cheers,

Dan

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
