Guys, I am not upset at any comments aimed at me/police as I know this is a car forum. Where most have been of you would have hassled by police for the cars you drive . I joined here couple of years ago as I had a modified R33 GTR and Have had 2 TT Soarers and still drive a TT Supra.

I have been EPA'd for noise on Soarer to which I changed exhaust I even had my Licence suspended for Speeding when I was 18. (funnly enough in a Daihatsu applause) for 131 in 110 zone so if they dropped speed by 1 km then wouldn't have been suspended. I learnt from it and as most can agree have done worse than that and got away with it.

Here is a story of how bad some police are. Obviously I am in the job and my house got broken into few years ago. You would think I would be looked after but NO. I had lazy CIU that told me I staged the Burglary (insurance fraud) as we lost extreme amount of Jewellery $100K (which wasn't insured by the way) and instead of assisting me and investigating it they hassled/interogated me and my partner and did nothing. SO even though I am one I am far from impressed with most of my colleagues.

So I can see all sides which is sometimes hard for me at work as well as others can't. I agree most police typical holden/ford fans and dislike imports but that stems from the R32's kicking their arses if you ask me. They just can't get over it.

Anyway thanks to the few of you that have assisted me.

Enjoy your cars and drive safely.

saw a yellow GT3 on springvale road turning onto princes hwy (towards dandenong) last friday at around 5:40pm~

Only saw the side of it, so didnt catch the number plates.

Thanks for the tip of ftg construciton. I drive through that stretch of road nearly twice a day. Thought cops couldnt book you for speeding if its up/down a hill? Guess they laser you on the straight stretch near the train museum/farm etc..

I remember one time there was a car with emergency lights flashing parked up the hill. Had a speed camera fixed to the front bar..really shifty

Do u mean a mobile speed camera had its hazards on pretending to be a broken down vehicle was operational?

...if so, thats illegal. They cant 'pretend' to be broken down eg: have the jack attached, hazards on, etc amongst other things such as disguising the vehicle to be a 'commercial' vehicle with stickers and signs etc.

Unless they've changed that just recently????

yeah it was a mobile speed camera car with its hazzard lights on. It was up a hill too, thought they can only snap photos on a flat stretch of road..

you sure it was a gt3? there is a yellow porsche in springvale constantly

the one i saw had the gt3 writing on the side of the car

That yellow Porsche is a piece of shit,

It was originally silver with scratches everywhere on the body, it sounded like a boat and it didnt' even have Heater. Its not even a 911.

1. Can't believe this justifies 5x pages!

2. Can't believe no-one has posted any pics?

Unless the suspected car looks just like this - you're all wrong on it being a yellow 997 GT3 - which considering I'm like a gynacologist with ho-has when it comes to seeing these things, I've never seen a yellow one.

I am not doubting that It probably will be unlikely that I would be able to impound his vehicle but still want to speak to him about his driving. I am more than happy to move on with life not ever catching up with him. I just feel like someone driving like that should be spoken too. I would think that most of you would agree.

I 100% agree....

Can you clear epa's :thumbsup:

No I can't clear EPA's I can only issue them LOL which I never do anymore. Yes It was one of the above Roads and if you know them that speed during the day pretty dangerous as fairly busy.

Oh and by the way I did catch armed robber with knives on him friday night as per your instuctions. I hope your happier now everyone.

Hey gdogzgtr you said you have a r33 GTR do you live in the Rowville region? If so i remember my mate telling me a story when he got pulled over by a cop when he was driving his white evo then the next week he saw that same cop pull up next to him in a GT-R r33 from memory it had a T-wing that you?

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
