Remember guys, its only the traffic cops we hate...

I spoke to a mate who's a cop and he said he was only ever in a bad mood when doing traffic shit. Not to mention he's beaten most of my speed records :D

Plus her chev is getting air bags :D

Other members like the ones that sort out domestics and all the other things are totally reasonable and level headed.

I got 'chased' down the road at 50km/h by a copper who also told me that my exhaust was too loud, and I needed a EPA test and had to hand in the result within the next 28 days!

I saved him the trouble and pulled out a piece of paper from the glove-box... an EPA test they did on my car with I got the exhaust fixed 15 mins earlier in Box Hill! :D

They just have bad days... get sh!tty 'cause they get traffic duty, and pick on ppl... not to worry!

:bahaha: what did he say to that one? :D

I think if you've previously had an EPA test its a good idea to carry the results around. Even if legally they hold no ground the second they are done, its a pretty dickhead copper that goes and puts you in again just after having being cleared. They can, but well there are grounds for complaint if they keep trying to dobb you in when its fairly clear you're not over the limit.

he asked me how long it took to do on my computer...

I politely asked him to come back to the garage with me if he thought it was a fake and to ask the person that did the test for me :)

I then basically through the results back in the drivers window and went back to his car, says not another word.

the good ol' "Have a nice day" must only be reserved for when they give you a ticket and know your day is going to be crap!

      Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.

      Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.

      There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.

      Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
