Around 8pm today I was dropping off my mate in eastern suburbs and I spotted tons of cops barricading all roads and side streets around norwood parade, portrush and kensington road... anyone knows what was going on?

other things in news today: 

police chase involving stolen skyline

police chase involving stolen cop car

another police chase in northern suburbs

Haha, no shit they were everywhere! I got pulled over, harassed to all hell with the cops telling me I was speeding and taking "racing lines" around corners; funny that considering they literally just spotted me then chucked a u bolt and pulled me over. I was lucky though, even though they gave me a hard time and had me by the balls defect wise, I kept my cool and they let me go. Funny thing is, just as they left, a Holden pulled up behind me, stopped, did a massive burnout then drifted a corner trying to look like a hero, just wish the cops came back and did him!

Just goes to show manners go a long way and they DEFINATELY use an attitude test on people they pull over. Officers, if you are reading this, thank you :laugh:

i think you're right.......... the equipment in those cars costs as much as the car itself

more my mate got his hands on the old style laser guns and they went to great measures to get it back claiming just the gun was worth 40k pretty sure a commo is only worth about 30k

WOW, I saw this car with 4 cop cars chasing him around 2km from the Montague Road intersection as I was travelling the other way on Bridge Road yesterday.

Saw the commo coming the other way and thought "damn he is going fast" - no way was he only doing 120km/h - the commo sounded pretty worked and was revving off its tits as it blasted the opposite direction past me.

So .... he collected other cars when he got to the Montague Road intersection - I knew by the speed he was doing he was going to get himself and others in trouble. Not something you see every day ....

You never hear about car chases down South! But remember the car chase from about a year or 2 ago where a stolen R32 GTR was running from the cops from Elizabeth or somewhere right up North alllll the way down to Christies Beach, where he popped a tire on the Esplanade near the beach and got arrested! I remember watching it on TV.

They had the footage of this white 32 GTR just flying down South road and about 4 cop cars chasing it. They gave up when speeds reached over 200 (no joke) and brought in the helicopter. The chase only stopped when he burst a tire on a curb!

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
