i would never want to be a speed camera operator, parking ticket inspcetor, tram/train ticket inspector or accountant...

further, how's the increase in revenue they're expecting to make on the eastlink?!?! 22 cameras over 48kms? seriously... :)

^^^ agreed 20yrs too late and it's not even a freeway, what a joke.

I like how they're saying it'll change the lives of people from the s.e and e, it'll reduce the amount of money in their pockets thats about it. I have a good question for them: if they hadn't created all that insignificant artwork along the route would we have cheaper tolls?

Plain Roads, Normal bridges...screw the rest. IDIOTS!

First time I use it I might even do a burn out "of derision" on the entrance ramp then one of "disgust" on the exit ramp.

That'll learn em and learn em good :O

when I was looking through them at a control centre demo last week they seemed pretty real to me.

Unless they've invented skyhooks, the infinite zoom (with a dead straight flat road) or geo static satelite they're not covering 47klm of toll way are they?

The so called dandy drag strip for example? spy cameras mounted on fake cows perhaps?

Somehow I have a doubt or 2.

Not sure where 47klm or the dandy drag strip has to do with the on and off ramps as per the origional post.

they dont need to cover all of it with perfect zoom, they can see what you are doing with a long shot, follow your car with the camera and then you will find that just before or at every exit will be a toll point full of cameras that will snap your plate perfectly, add the camera tracking shot and the pretty snap of your plate and you are done sunshine.

You do realize that the term "big brother" was not invented by channel 10 dont you??

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
