yeah, unfortunately their counter argument would hold substantial weight.

you know, speed cameras save lives and all that.

one of those necessary evil arguments.

But you still need to look out for cop cars tho.

yes there is 1 there. ive fired up a few commy drivers and slamed the breaks just b4 it b4 :( good times... bloody proud vn drivers... haha.

Kinda offtopic: Is it true that there is satellite speed tracking on south-eastern freeway? I heard it from my friend... but I wouldnt be so sure about it...

first ive heard of it, and ive driven that freeway about 60 thousand times.

I got flashed while going through a green before, was pretty stressed out for a long time, but all good now (~8month past now & nothing...)

Funny thing was, while I was going through the intersection & getting flashed, the car behind me, (driven by what looks like a house wife picking up kids),as soon as she saw the flashes she fully stepped on the brakes & did a full stop in the middle of the intersection... dumb b*tch ;)

doubt it. if it even exists, itd be ridiculously expensive technology to use for speed enforcement.

Not hard to spot

- usually latest model Ford/Commodore

- Number plates are normal SA or SA gov plates, but never have the car yard black plastic trim around the plate

- usually have luvres on the rear window

its a habit of mine to slow down if i ever pass a new model commodore or falcon on the side of the road, then look in the rear view for the little flasher on the front bar ;)

thats exactly what i do too damo

i have found out in the past that they dont give out all of the locations of mobile flashers

so be aware of that as well

as for satelite tracking on the freeway

shit i better hope not as it would be an expensive exercise

they use sat tracking on some highways as a way to measure how fast trucks have done over a set time vers distance thing . and too see if they have pulled up for rest periods ect ect its here now and has been for a while

There are observation cameras at various points that (I'm led to believe) CAN be used to determine if your average speed between points is too high - I believe they're usually primarily used to catch truckies who've removed the limiters on their trucks or dodge their logbooks.

    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
