The British Police have had many many performance cars over the years particularly different counties where street racing etc was more prevelent. ^^

That "photoshopped" Evo doesnt look too disimilar to how I would expect one of the FQ range to look out of the UK. :(

Why is Dezz the only one here who gets it?

P R O M O T I O N A L

MMA supply the cars, some drunk guy with Paintshop does the decals (apparently) and the Hammers use these cars for city and central urban traffic duties.

Why? They stand out, people look, people see POLICE.

Same way people sticker up Smarts or Hummers (or Aston Martins) - so they are noticed and seen.

My brother was in charge of marketing for HSV when they provided the GTO to VicPol.

There was no cost at all to the Police - it gave HSV a chance to have their car seen (and talked about) and for the Police to have something flashy and prominent to help create a visible presence.

Expect to see this car heading up booze busses on St Kilda Rd, running traffic support for public events, and pulling over people on mobiles driving through the city.

Alan - MMUK FQ cars already out:

If you truly were awesome, you'd want a drive of the Superleggera.

Its like f*cking the sexiest chick in the world while you watch and high-five yourself at the same time - then someone kicks you in the kidneys, and the cycle begins again.

Left Autosalon on sunday as we got to the lights we saw the evo x cop car so we sped up, we finally got next to it and the cop puts down his window and goes hey boys what you think? we put our thumbs up said looks fkn sick man! we talked about the car for a while and he said its the best car he has ever driven and that he cant believe hes getting paid to drive it then when the lights turned green he floored it back went down off they went leaving a trail of smoke had to be the best cops i have come across so far since i have been driving they were just smiles and were happy to be out there and were not dick heads. We need more of these cops on our roads with an appreciation of Japanese cars!

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
