Last Night i Must have got away luckly i presume

I was pulled over by an Undercover Cop (orange SS) in parramatta beacuse i crossed over a Lined Island. This is what happened

1. he introduced himself to me

2. he then asked for m licence and gave me a breath test.

3. He told me to open my bonnet.

He questioned me on my CAI box due to the fact it was Stainless steel and my Blow off Valve. And he als o questioned me on my Gauges. He could have kept goin but he seemed nice and didnt.

4. He took a photo of my whole car and the engine bay. then asked for engineers

i respond that i didnt have engineers due to the fact there useless. and he did say nothing.

For somereason he let me off without defect except a fine for emissions. and that was $132 with no points....

As soon he saw the skyline Australia sticker on ther rear he Said Did you like what we did at nightshift recently. He also state that they are on this forum searching for through it.

On the bright side the officer said this is very good club to affilated with as there are not bad as NS ......

lol @ the nightshift thing :)

Yeah they photo'd my car when I was defected.

I think it's common knowledge that the police read certain forums from time to time...

Maybe it's time I finally put an SAU sticker on the car :whistling:

They've been taking photos for some time of modified cars. I think it's to help them teach others what's what, so they don't call pod filters BOV's. :whistling:

You got off rather lightly.

Nightshift?

Read this about night shift

Hehehehehe I know... it's kinda slack :) I'll chuck the little one on tonight just for you! :worship:

They defected the wing because they said the metal stands it was on could hurt someone if I were to hit a pedestrian, and have them fly over the car into the metal stands... Apparently the stock ones are designed to break...

Same officer that said number plates have to be located in the middle of the front bumper :whistling:

Either way, it's all very interesting. If they are here to learn more about what is legal and what isn't, then good on em! I don't argue with police, but I cringe when they get things wrong.

I dont wanna sound dumb.................... But if you hit a pedestrian what more damage can the wing do... 14000kg of metal hitting a human another 20kg aint do much more

Surface area of the point of impact. Front of a car can spread the force better than 2 metal pieces sticking out of the rear. think: you hit something with a hammer, leaves a dent. Put a nail on the end of the hammer: penetrates.

Oooh, if we're going to go into that, you also have to bring into the differences of my wing, and the standard wing Not to mention that the vector and velocity of the car will without a doubt, pass on some of it's kinetic energy to the person, making the 'initial' impact on the wing a lot less.

But seriously, it so isn't that important :whistling:

I've never really been on NS.com...

so dare i ask: What makes them so bad?

nothing. I'm a member on NS. And those guys are just as enthusiastic as anyone else. I think maybe they're a more social forum, so the fact that they're on more meets/cruises i guess gives them higher exposure to police..which in turn would make them seen as "hoons" because we all know how strict the police are with defects.

that may not be right but that was the only answer i could come up with that made me sound intelligent

what are your thoughts

all the more reason for the mods/admins to be even more strict when coming across any talk of street racing or illegal activities.

if its a good thing you might find more NS'ers rocking SAU stickers to try and give the cops a good impression.

now that would be such a sweet sweet irony.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
