I did see the driver enough to describe his age, ethnicity etc and it had personalised plates. In relation to Where I perform Laser duties I don't see that I would need permission to give out that iformation. I have at least 3-4 other streets in my area that I sit also and TMU and other members have 100's of others so naming one spot in a thousand I highly doubt will worry anyone.

I am not saying that I would be successful in tracking them down or even if do find them I agree It would be unlikely to prosecute but I still think it's worthwile to try to track them down.

Reality is could look into further charges not just traffic related. That much over speed limit in middle of day in busy industrial area could speak to them about charges similiar to conduct endangering life. Not unreasable to have truck pull out of Driveway in front of them etc

How will you prove his speed though? Do the laser units that you use keep a log?

What other things would you actually look at charging the individual for? I'm keen to hear what it would fall under in regards to the Victorian road laws.

If you know his age and nationality why wouldnt you look up all Yellow GT3's

Filter it down to those owners who fall in the given age group

Then filter it down again to those with personalised plates?

Maybe make a fancy graph also and show it to people at the station. They'll see you're a hard worker and will probably give you a cool nickname like "graphy-grapherson."

i will swap you the details only if!... u get me.... a shrubbery! once you have the shrubbery with a nice little path down the middle, you must cut this tree down.... with a herring!

Haha love it.

*officer pulls over gt3 porsche* " it's just a flesh wound!" *officer impounds porsche* "alright we'll call it a draw".

I've seen cops on several occasions sitting on ferntree gully road with the radar, so many times that I'm very conscious of them every time I round the corner. By night they sit in the median strip and shoot their "LASER" at the corner so they'll have your speed before you see them. During the day they sit on the chesterfield farm side of the road and just poke out down the side of the roadworks.

Contacted Porsche Dealership and possibly under 10 Yellow GT3 sold in last couple of years. Will get onto Vic Roads next week and try to get list of same. Fairly hard as I doubt they would put them in sepatare category so list probably include all Yellow Porsche's. Bit like GTR just is listed as nissan skyline.

I already have a "cool" Nickname at work and my boss already impressed at how hard I work. Have most arrests at station by mile and in top 3 for penalty notices issued. I just think you should work hard as we have no reason to do same there is no work performance awards. I could do 10% of what I do and actully finish on time for once but that's not what I'm about.

Laser Unit's don't save speed so it would be my word against their's in relation to that if it ever went to court.

You could possibly look at charges like Conduct Endangering Life, Driver manner dangerous, speed dangerous, careless driving, exceed speed limit and improper use re speed under new hoon laws.

Unless your nickname is Rabbit, Farva or Mack it ain't really a cool nickname....

And it doesn't count if it is a nickname you made up and introduce yourself to others with either... that's cheating

MEOW!

How long have you been in the force?

May I ask what section you work in? (I realise you would be reluctant to give out details but a general work area?)

These are OT questions so you could PM if you like.

MEOW!

What about if you just start calling yourself Donkey?

eee f**kin orr

to the OP. GL in finding the driver. I'm sure if he's smart enough to be able to afford a GT3 then he will be smart enough to know the law also ;)

glad to see our $$$ are going to well deserving hard working officers... why loathe a hang on something that happend... you didn't catch the guy.. get the f*** over it. i'm on the road 24/7, do you want me to report every tom dick and ha...... officer, isee breaking the law to you and you can then waste time trying to background check and csi investigate every one of them..

Hmmm maybe he is a cop, he did give a keep a look out call for the vehicle and he has now given more details that would allow him to narrow in on the car in question if it came to his attention.

BUT sadly the overriding fact pointing to him indeed being a brother in blue is that he prides himself on being, and i quote, 'top 3 most penalty notices given.'

Are you sure that you are not TOGS mate??? only those blokes pride themselves on actually hurting more than their quota.....

Is the OP doing posting this whilst on duty? Or is he doing this in his own unpaid time?

Hey i got an idea.

Find some real criminals who are raping/murdering/selling drugs/breaking into house/stealing cars/laundering massive amounts of money etc etc.

So a guy in a porsche decided to give it a squirt on the fast pedal...Meh. Yeah i realise that some one who didnt look before entering the road could have been crashed in to etc but it didnt happen....but what did happen is someone had their house broken in to somewhere. Good luck with your state revenue and reaching your "target".

I can't believe you guys are giving so much grief to a police officer trying to do the right thing. If you read this guy's previous posts you will discover he's actually very fair on us import drivers, yet you give him a hard time?

I agree that the title of the thread is wrong, but wanting to have a chat to the driver is pretty fair all things considered. All you guys in this club trying to protest your innocence and looking down on hoons and idiots who drive fast. As soon as someone actually wants to do something about it you give them a hard time. Most of you clowns are in WA unfortunately or I'd love to see the threads you create when he pulls your ass over. I'm sure more than a few Melbourne members would look upon him in a different light so if you have nothing nice to say, STFU.

endrant.

why be nasty about it? seems a bit hostile of you to take such a negative-zilchy stance on our replies.

In fact if anything, we have supported his exploration for answers.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
