Speeding driver arrested – Alice Springs

A man caught driving at almost 120 kilometres per hour over the speed limit has been arrested in Alice Springs this afternoon.

Just after 1.30pm a police patrol heading inbound on Larapinta Drive near Diarama Village clocked on on-coming car at 179 kilometres per hour in a 60 zone.

Police did a u-turn to apprehend the driver and he was arrested near Battarbee Street.

When asked why he was driving his Toyota Supra at that speed he told police he was in a hurry to get home.

The 21-year-old is expected to be charged with driving at a dangerous speed, recklessly endangering life and exceeding the speed limit by more than 45 kilometres per hour.

Don't want to jump to conclusions but all those details giving make me think orange supra with supragt on the plates. Did Raymond Dunn get done?

Not likely to be the red one, don't think Brett is that silly, and he's over 21..

The cop car was inbound, the Supra heading out of town and stopped at Battarbee st.

The cops must have flashed him near diarama and he slowed down and stopped straight away, that might go in his favour at court.

At that speed he could have lost them, but they would just be waiting at home and he be in more sh^t.

I also heard a bit of a police chase last night, well sounded like it briefly anyway.

Was at the carwash around 8 or 9 and could hear someone giving stick around town, (saw a little white thing go past, "no names")

then heard sirens start up and had a chuckle, then a second set of sirens and all 3 disappeared into the distance..

And on another note,,, I was accused (not to my face though) of doing burnouts everywhere just because theres a purple spotrs car in my driveway and a burnout in front of my house... (my friend really put it up this bloke on my behalf though, he didn't know they actually new me, haha). Shits me cos there's burnouts all the way up the street and around the corner, but I own a sportscar so it must be me? right? F&kken Dumbasses....

Sure, maybe some of these hoons see my car and act up, but that's not my fault...

/Rant

There would be no way it be brett. He has to much to risk to do that shit. Thankfully.

But on another note, i did speak to Raymond already and it wasnt him. He said who ever it was he wants to smack up the head.

There's a new Silver TT supra in town, maybe 2-3 weeks old but i'm going to think it's him, and raymond said the same. Either way, thats some pretty f**ked up speed to be doing intown...

Not to mention only an hour after lunch. I could understand the cops pulling someone at half one in the morning doind that speed but I never thought I'd hear of someone doing that spped during the day.

Good to hear it wasn't ray too.

Jordan got his car. I think it's a little quicker than my car. Seems fairly even side by side. My car does start creeping on him though in the higher gears. Will be good to see it out the drags on sunday if he goes.

:D:):):) YES I GOT MY CAR :D:banana::banana::banana: It goes quite good for a stocko, but the gearing is long as hell, Gave Fabs A quick go, stuck with him till end of seconed while hes already halfway though third, DAMN

Need more Boost!

And does anyone know who was driving the Supra? name

jordan dont blame other people for your f**k ups... if you were drivin its your fault...

street wars hey...hmm.. might have to borrow the inlaws ss instead of the line boys..lol

I think where all over this Pinsta, come on man, Dropit :D

Damn, that's a shame... RIP

But at least it doesn't say anything about speeding or reckless driving, seems like just an accident?

jordan, when's the engine warming party??

nah, but anyone up for a drive tonight?

That accident happened last night at North side shops. Since that Monday storm, they still havent got the street lights working and its pitch black there.. With a Black guy drunk walking across the road = accident.

My sister said that it was a tourist just passing through. So that sucks to be him. But the guy that died was apparently drunk as f**k... so yeah.

Jorden, thats good about your car dude. Sounds like with a bit of mod's she'll go nicely.

well i got my new turbo in today....................... seized and a big f*ck off crack around the inside of the intake casing........ not happy at the moment :P

Well that just threw you back to square one. More disappointment :/

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
