Ok, i think i've said this a numberous times, it's all up the police office on duty, 4 out of 5 they will let you go, They are not there to pull you over and defect you because you have a hotted up car, that's not what HWP and street cops are designed and paid for.

You know, I told my boss today that I was defected, and he asked "Why did he pull you over?"

It was only today that I realised a reason wasn't even given... it wasn't a random breathe test, no drug search, and I wasn't speeding or misbehaving in any way... He pulled me over because of the car that I drive...

Sorry to argue Albert, but this officer of our laws, did EXACTLY the opposite to what you said, just 2 days ago...

Ok, that's illegal, under the law enforcement act, section 99(2), says 'A police officer may, without a warrant, arrest a person if the police officer suspects on reasonable grounds that the person has committed an offence under any Act or statutory instrument' and also 'The arrest is made in circumstances sanctioned by Law; The arrester notifies the arrestee as to the fact of his arrest; A suffcient act of the arrest to detain the liberty of the arrestee, by words or action, or both; The arrester notifies the arrestee as to the reason(s) for his arrest.

In your case, the officer must state the reason(s) that why he pulled you over, and what he is going to do with your vechicle, i.e looking for little ones, child porn, black dildo etc...but let not go that far :D

So what i'm saying, what he did was un-lawful, and you could put up with a good fight in court if you have all the facts.

LOL that would be a joke if they were aiming for zero deaths. People are goin to die. Thats just wat happens. Only way to stop this as far as i can see is to remove all vehicles from our roads. Hmm dunno how this would go down with the people tho??

As long as we use vehicles, people will die.

Why is it a joke?

If you aim for something considered unachievable, then "fair enough" is never "good enough". You keep doing your best to get closer and closer to that goal.

If you just say, "Oh, lets aim for 200 fatalities nationally a year, because people are sure to die)" then what's the incentive to save those other 199 lives if you manage to drop below that target?

Its accepting that half-arsed attitude that's half the problem with society these days.

If you aim for perfection and just miss, there's no dishonour in what you've achieved.

I think the police are aiming to have everyone drive drive the same car, all stock as rock, lol.

I can see the future already. Everyone drivin round in KIA Rio's or some sh!t. :thumbsup:

Hmm that would suck. Think i would go over seas if that happened.

Getting the vehicle death toll to zero seriously is the RTA's plan. They're been working away on their first plan for a few years, it's called 2012. Basically the idea is that one day technology will provide the ultimate solution, but in the mean time they can reduce the toll by changing people's behaviour and ideas. i.e. "No one thinks big of you"

The plan is broken into 3 parts.

Safer Roads

Safer Vehicles

Safer People

And about the driving around in kia rias... they're trialling an 'Intelligent Speed System" in some cars around wollongong right now, so maybe speed limited cars with Big Brother helping us behind the wheel is the future. Who knows...

I probably wouldn't bother, as I don't know what he would have written down... He just came up to me and said I'm blah blah blah from bleh bleh bleh, could you please shut the engine off, step out of the car with your keys and hand me your license.

I made him repeat it a few times cause of the traffic buzzing by, and the fact that he was speaking straight into his helmet, I couldn't hear a word he said...

Either way, next time I get pulled over, make sure you're with me Sheng :D

It's not a half arsed attitude, it's a realistic attitude.

As for being half the problem with society these days, I'd put it closer to 1%. :P

In his case, same laws applies.

Can you explain how it applies when the power to stop the vehicle comes from S36A.

He was stopped for either breath test or a breach of regulations. He said he may not have heard the reason. Nonetheless he was not arrested. I can't see how S99 does apply.

Ok. let's just disregard the Sections for now.

The police have this thing called 'Sanction by law', which means He/she must state the reason(s) for your arrest, Unless it's under a special circumstances, i.e, Johnney Shitbag robs a bank, police comes in and negotiate with him, sprays him, then cuffs him. So it's pretty obvious that he did something wrong. in Doof's case. he got pulled over, officers could at least tell him something like "Ok, mate, we are here to defect your car, or we are here to search your car, because i have suspicions that you have drugs in your car..."

Doof replies something like: "No worries officer, i have nothing to hide, do what ever you like.."

Ok now, you may ask "Well he(Doof) knew that he have lot's of defects in his car, which is a crime by the books. And the officers knew that he(Doof) knew that oh shit i have a lot of defects in my car, and I'm gonna get done.."

BUT.

Whatever the police know or has a suspicion of, does not encounter with What Doof knows. Doof might say "Oh, i didn't know i have those defects, and i didn't know i have those drugs under my backseat. " Office: " Yeah, but it's your car, you drives it, you own it." Doof:" Yeah, that doesn't mean i have to know everything about my car, people sit in it, people puts stuff in it, other people drives it, and officer which section says i have to check everything in my car before i drives. "

I hope this clears up a bit.

I'm not a defence lawyer nor a prosecutor. But rules are there, is not up to me nor the parliament to asking every office to do their job right.

ps please don't pm me to be your lawyer for your traffic offences lol.

For those of you did, i have pmed yous back.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
