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

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!

      HR34 GT speedo issue

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Probably speedometer itself if the odometer is ticking. If the needle is stuck from a bit of grease or something that can cause it to stay at 0. Or a cracked solder joint in the speedometer can do it too.

      WTB RB25 Gearbox NSW / central west

      By Dylannn · Posted

      Thanks Fella’s   to take this off topic and to elaborate a bit more. I have an rb25/30 going into a r32 GTST.. expected to make around 600-700hp. Would you?   A) R34 GTT box   B) CD00#?  I’ve seen a few posts about the CD swap and sounds fairly involved with making it fit etc but if it’s worth the work then I’ll go that way

      Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate

      R34 Manual conversion Speedometer

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.

      Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
