yeah that was me. i was following my friend, accelerated to speed limit than cruised NOT RACING. i have raced him on private property. With launch beat him by 3.5 car lengths by 3rd gear and taking off normal than planting it i get creamed (once on boost start to catch up but he's way to far in front).

so..

did you actually see that he was a cop or are you just assuming?

maybe it wasn't a cop at all...

100% sure it's a cop, he had a little box in right hand corner and i could just make out the uniform.

the unnecessary acceleration law states that it is up to OFFICER DISCRETION as to whether you were breaking said law... the same is for breaking traction... all you would need is the tiniest noise (which aint hard with FAT tyres :D)

also it is illegal to swear directly at an officer, or make an obscene guesture towards one... i'm sure a few of you will remember the debacle a few years ago when that guy stuck his finger up at a speed camera (when they were run by cops) and got snapped and niel mitchel (i think) paid the $1000 fine for him... then the cops kicked up a fuss but there was technically no law against "gifting" $1k and him paying the fine....

I was under the impression that a police officer has to either be wearing a badge,uniform or hat or driving a marked police car or show me identification before i have to legally acknowledge them as law enforcement officers until then their just another bogan in a commonwhore who will get the middle finger.

Here Here,

BTW Coppers driving Falcons are excempt from said act as we pity you. :D

yeah but you cant be 100% because you didnt actually see him..if the tint was blacker than black

might have been a security guard or something who knows.

assumption is the mother of all bollocksups

if im in my crap car n see one of these cops around ill follow them with my cammra and film them all day, im sure they will be pissed off but hey i dont work much so i could spend a day to try n put a nice "hoon" movie together staring UNDER COVER cops for ppl on youtube.. :D one day

Damn fine idea...!! even more so if you had a mate in the back seat operating a camera, Then play the coppa at his own game...Inch the car forward as the lights are about to change, rev the engine like you are about to gun it...lights go green you just sit there, hopefully he will be stupid enough to break traction off the line..Your mate gets it all on camera....Bam..get that coppa fined for reckless driving..Undisputable evidence

So all people with in car camera mounts should have a camera on play everytime you are crusin around town. Similiar to the cop cars have when they pull ya over?

well easier said than done, but if recorded from the video recorder of a mobile phone and then transferred to disk or something...much more possible.

you could that. but in the end he will find out who u r, cops always take extra care of their own. word by mouth gets around of who F'ed him up and every cop will go out of thier way to hassle u. would be nice but not worth it.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
