"A 20 year old hoon has been sent to jail after clocking the fastest recorded speed on Victorian roads. P-Plater Justin Pickering of Malvern East led police on a marathon chase in his Subaru WRX STI last August along the Hume Highway. Broadmeadows magistrates court heard police clock him at 255km/h.

He was jailed for 3 months, with another 6 months suspended, for six driving offences including reckless conduct endangering life. He was fined $2000 and banned from driving for 5 years."

My uncle got clocked at 281 on a suzuki hayabusa just over 2 years ago, no loss of lisence or even a fine.

Nothern Territory, on a no speed limit road :down:

I think someone's telling fibs. Why would the police have a radar set up on a road with an open speed limit?

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
