I think thats funny. I spoke to a cop the other day at the GTIR track day meetup, won't say names. he told us someone has to really push him hard to defect them, like run there mouth off, otherwise he would let them go. but when I asked which was his, it was the black GTIR with heaps of mods and 180KW at all 4 wheels! classic, he said that he could use his car for work but doesn't think its right to trap people like that. that is the best cop I have ever met

I was just talking to some friends in the force again today and they think im crazy that i cant get over the fact they have a R34 GTR.... supposedly the cops have a wide selection of cars they could use such as porsches, BMWs, etc etc

btw the R34 GTR has already been bought and will probaly been in use soon, if not now...

franks , thats the reason they don't have rexes anymore , maybe they want to try the gtr's now . i've heard that a cop is driving a supra in mulgoa rd penrith he is baiting drivers with turbos then radios his mates that are waiting 500 mtrs down the road and pulls them up , i dont live there so i don't know how true it is but a mate told me that he has heard them (cops ) on the scanner .

A. If the NSW Police have an R34 GTR now or ever you can have my house for free. Will through in the wife and kids.

B. There are entrapment laws in NSW and other states but not for driving only Crimes Act, for drugs usually. Police have used hotted up cars and no doubt raced then booked members of the public way back with Toranas to current but ususally have powerfull car rather to catch rather than temp. They are bastards keeping us all from killing ourselves speeding etc, but yes they could spend much more time catching real badies rather than worrying about a BOV or other petty item and catch the guy who stole a car from us last year.

I agree thourghly with you, keeping us from killing ourselves is one of there biggest priorities. But some of them go out of there way to pull you up. I have driven past an RBT unit before (3 lane rd) and the guy saw me coming and couldn't wave the batton fast enough to get me in!

On valentines day, on my way home to get changed, I saw more cops than on the whole long weekend blitz in my area. They pulled me over after following me for a while, went over my engine bay (I was being upfront and honest without a sarcastic tone) and he tried to do me for a BOV when it was the factory nissan item! then as he is letting me go after the debate he pops his head in my car door and gives it a boot full. NOT EVEN I REV MY CAR THAT HARD AT IDOL!:D

so not all of them are serving the public the way they should be

Just thought i'd mention that i have seen a black R34 around Paddington with the plates Munstr....monstr something like that and it is one hell of a sweet car!!! Havent been close enuff to see the driver but who knows could be it............

I live in the a place pretty much none has heard of and got pulled over, in my r30 (ahha yeah laugh at me) skyline which I only got 2 days before, they looked at the tyres n stuff gave me a breath test the he charged me for neg cos I cut the corner, at 12midnight who cares. Profit making if ive ever seen it he claimed I was all over the place a went too fast around a corner pffft not happy $178 later.

Today tonight said a while back that a task force was being set up by police to stop Illegal Street racing..... Maybe this could be the reasoning behind the GTR....

NSW (i think) is the only state where entrapment hold's up in court.

Why else would we have THREE sign's before a speed camera.....

Radar's set up on a Flat road's (cause gravity on hill's affects the vehicle's speed)

and RED LIGHT camera's Signed..!!

QLD have none of these warning's.... and they even race people on the roads and then pull them over.... (another today tonight story) I think it's the same in Vic too

I'm only going on what i've seen and heard.....

I tend to agree with what John said.

While I do think some cops hassle import drivers, it also takes a level of stupidity to get their attention in the first place. I have had my r33 for over a year now and havent been pulled over in it once...

I think if there was going to be a R34 GTR driving around, it would be a personal car being used by the cops...

Oh and Lozza... Blitzkrieg is a PC game!!!

    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
    • ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
    • And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.
    • No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.
