I haven't been pulled over by much police but the ones i have encountered have been a dog to me, even though for petty little offenses like driving with a expired license ( i was overseas for a few months, didn't realize my license renewal in the mail ) and not wearing a seat belt.

To this day i have yet to come by a decent chilled out officer who i could perhaps have a normal chat with even when i am receiving a fine... until that time, i will always view them as nothing more than bandits on power trip with a massively inflated ego. Im sure there are some calmed/down-to-earth ones out there but the ratio in between is large.

Sorry to get off topic..

I disagree with that opinion they are only doing their job..i think its all a matter of respect you respect them they respect you back.. I was able to sit down whilst being drug tested the other day and chat with an officer for about 10mins whilst be drug tested..just spoke shit said he loved the skyline..told me to be careful cause it was a lil loud then rattled off all the reasons whilst the drug test are so inaffective.. lol was actually quite funny...

i also managed to have a chat with another one a few weeks ago at my local pub whom has just come to break up a fight..maybe it where im from eastern suburbs (nopt the city etc) maybe there a lil more chilled out.. i dont know.. I even had the cop who pulled a gun on me not long ago apolgoise to me a day later..so yeah..

I wouldnt sweat over it, I drive around melb alot on my job. and have noticed the odd Undercover in plain cloths pullin people over, not just modified cars.. or cars that look in anyway conspicuous, its just the oinkers bored out of their minds. with no doghnuts, serving their community proudly.

ive got pulled over by a unmarked car wearing plain clothes and they just let me off afetr a license check and i also thought bout what this topic is about "if they are aloud to do that" but oh well

    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
    • Plan B? Get someone to machine up a metal bush/collar/whatever it needs to be to replace the rubber? I haven't had a close look at that part recently to have a proper feel for whether that's possible. But it might be easy.
    • I do not want to install a short shifter and the only other stock throw shifter I have seen is the Nismo "Rigid shifter" for $290 So plan A is to fill it with sikaflex to stiffen it up and hope for the best
