That's quite funny. I obviously bought my GTR myself, I would it if the force bought me one. I have only been on a couple of SAU event's/cruises and have no intention of fining anyone on them. Would expect that if anyone was driving stupidly the rest of the club/moderators etc would pull them into line pretty quickly.

Have been working and attended to a number of various car club cruises and not fined anyone to date. Have pulled a couple over that I could have even impounded their cars but stern warnings given and pointed out not to behave that way on cruise at it brings whole club under scutiny. That's because I think car clubs for enthusiasts are good thing and most encourage uholding traffic laws and leaving the spirited driving to the track. Without car clubs and track days it would only make more people race around on our roads.

I have been to some club cruises and seen many police act over the top and start hassling everone there which doesn't help anyone. Obviously if someone drives like an idiot they bring the consequences on themselves.

I don't have any issues with carbon bonnets. I Canary vehicles with Bald tyres, faulty/broken lights or indicators, faults with seat belts general obvious safety issues. I known that some will find minor obscure things to canary a vehicle.

At present I am that busy that I only pull over a car if it's committing an offence or driving erratically. I can't even remember when I last just pulled over an import to check it out and have a chat with owner.

The owner might be an idiot driver but if you ask me he is a cool boss. Pulled over the GT3 again tonight and this time it's one of his staff driving. Boss lent him the car to go out on a date. Got to love that in a boss.

omg wheres he work i want a job there... thats awesome.

I think i saw this gt3 today

Was very suprised to see a bright yellow gt3 parked outside the front door of vicroads with 2 different custom number plates on the car?? I never knew this was legal(if it is)

I remembered the thread and waited about 15mins to let him know about this thread lol but he never shown so i thought i would snap a couple pics...

I doubt theres 2 yellow gt3s in the area??

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
