Tried searching and even googling but cant seem to find much info beyond here-say.

So i need to go to brighton le sands twice tonight around 6 then 9-10. I havent been there for about 2 years but i do remember there being alot of knobs and coppers defecting. Is it still like that? Gotten worse? Or settled down?

Any tips on streets to avoid would be good!

Cheers

Rob

Not so many defects, but alot of cops, stick right on the speed limit.. you should be right..

they only have maybe 3 cops doing circles at a night, however they now shut off the old prision parking lot..

still plenty of knobs

I'm a resident and i can tell you that if you do the right thing when you drive through, you should be fine... there are still a lot of idiots that come this way just to be hektik but the police know what to look for.

There will be, at that time, a police car at both ends of Bay St. in the hub of BLS.

The right turn on Grand Pde is closed off to deter the "happy lap" culture and three streets that are left turns from the left turn you are forced to take, are closed till 2am. If you want to get back through you'll have turn left AFTER the Shell.

You know about the foggies, and keep the DOOF to a minimum.

That is all.

it was ok i stayed off the main roads for the most part, chick i was picking up knew her way around and could navigate thank f&^k. :banana: did still see a few coppers when on main roads but nothing i couldnt avoid. god brighton is full of scum more than ever.

i dnt get pulled over that often there...if you stick to speed limit and not act like a dick then you're absoultely fine even if you've lot of mods..dnt rev your car unnecessary and be nice to cops if they do pull you over.. i was stopped yesterday arvo for RBT cop looked around told me nice car and let me go..remember to be nice to them since they come accross lot of dicks who ruin their day and you dnt wanna be a victim of their bad mood.

Mars - i seen you car heaps of times mate around 6 pm from rockdale to brighton..do you finish work around that time?

also be careful of unmarked police, i saw afew xr6 fords pulling over some cars just after bay st and after the airport tunnel. usualy bright coloured like orange, green etc.

i went through yesterdayafternoon and had afew coppers behind me, they didnt look twice, if you behave you have nothing to worry about

there after the hoons that fly down bay st to impress chicks with there cannon exhuast and there schick pod filter induction noises :D

I hate driving through Brighton. I usually try to stay away from it. I saw last night coppers everywhere around there (around 11pm) and 3 or 4 had stopped to pull over a yellow EVO right in the airport tunnel. I have been hassled a few times going through there but so far have been only "RBT'D" and been let off...

That's when I see him too but always on my bike so he doesn't see me. Psst, the other day when I saw him the car was dirty. Pass it on. Don't tell who told you.

i drive to brighton and through it almost everyday for the last 2 years, and i have only been pulled up once and that was the 1st day i went there lol, cop sat there for 5 minutes infront of my bar looking at my munber plate hidden inside the bar mouth, came back and let me off. havent been pulled up since, but guys be carefull on friday or sat nights they have rbts on the m5 bout a k out of the tunnel heading towards king georges rd, you will know this cause you will see as soon as you get out the tunnel the speed limit is dropped to 40km lol, do not take the first exit on your right whatever you do, there is a hwy patrol always sitting for defects, i did that 2 weeks ago and lucky some old corola was pulled over with bonnet up. kepp driving straight and sit behind a semi trailer lol if there is one around.

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
