I guess this answered my question as well too risky

Is it just as bad to drive in the arvo as it is during the night with the cops and all

yes and it being a dry zone they will have constint rbt's all over the place. its not worth the trouble

haha i took my 32 with straight through exhaust down there. didnt have any issues, but i had my mate up ahead scanning the roads and was gonna call me if he saw a RBT or what ever. i remember sunday night i think it was driving down to near the right on the water, basically as close as u could get to the action by road in a car, i was meeting up with my mates that were all there in a hotel thing. i was f**king stressing, like going through the back roads, turning my lights off and parking every so often. as im sure u guys know, cops f**king everywhere at night. anyway finally made it there and slept the night in my car, well i use the word slept loosely.

yes leave your car and yourself at home there is so much trouble and it's getting worse every year dont put yourself in that situation

its not to bad, its just the toolies you have to worry about

oh and if you lose something like a wallet etc. dont bother going to the cops. we found one and they said do what we like with it :s

stay with a group of friends and youll be ok

being a local and experiencing many schoolies(and all the shit that goes on) i dont think they are really out to get ya. i never really had too much trouble with them.

this year though it will be at home as it is defectable! but if you dont have that problem then i would say you should be fine but expect unwanted attention!! if you dont want/like then leave it at home. i got a mountain bike to ride where ever i need to get to these days

but the first year i had the skyline i actually took it out. i was pulled up by a group of under cover cops like 5pm on the friday arvo after pulling out of a bottleo... search my car over(not for defects, but drugs im guessing) but found out i was local and then layed off a bit. started asking me all sorts of questions about the car, like whats it worth. how fast have i gone, is it quick. which i thought was funny! they were fine and had no motivation to defect me(although the car was mostly stock)

most of the weekend i left it at home til me and a couple mates wanted to go driving. i had 2 'ss' cop cars following me. fortunable i knew the back streets of my home town very well and i avoided any probs with them by taking a coulpe extra turns in my drive home.. i reckon thats where my trouble would have been if they had of pulled me up

then i was drive from work to home on the monday and they pulled me over for a rego check. and let me go with no issuse.

last year a mate of mine was pulled up but the 'ss' but the cop in it was dence and didnt know what he was doing( BOV's vent exhaust gasses to ATMO...well according to him. oh and a standard return valve is illeagel. haha)

so do want ya want really. thats my experiences with and my and a mates car.

i have had other run ins with the police at schoolies when i was younger, but i dont see me being that stupid now.

being victor resident as well. i personally wouldnt bring it if it's defectable. i'm hoping i dont get done driving to and fro work. theyve already started defecting cars done here, from what i've heard new cop in town defecting , he's nice enough but wi;; defect ya anyway. but if you got a stock car, go for it just be sure it's safe at night.

chris...

the thing that shits me about schoolies is that they show it on the news every year, and they say shit like oh fights at schoolies, waa waa waa.

get over it, it happens every single year, why report it every single time as if its something new.

the 1 thing i hate about it is that most that comes down expects locals to stay home and out of the way...

some dont care! i have had a few drinks with people until the cops see us drinking haha

DONT wear back packs with ya stash in!!! they get you everytime

if anyone is planning on going down pm me on friday arvo or sat day...iv lost all my drinking buddies!!!!!

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
