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'm struggling with a similar issue on an RB26. Make sure you know whether it's volume or resonance. Mine seemed louder when cruising compared to at idle. I downloaded a decibel meter for my phone. Take my less than scientific results with a couple grains of salt, but the decibels were the same at idle and at cruise. Mine seems to be a resonance problem. At 2500-3500 rpm, the sound is different and "louder" to my ear. I think it's vibration from the pipe, the car body, the floor or something creating tone. Anyway, consider that it may not be strictly a volume problem.
    • Does this count as a time trial as well? I got all gold in the master super licence (1 lap time trial) and received a McLaren MP4/4 for my trouble.  If anyone else has done this, did you ride the wall right around the first long right hander at Lake Louise snow track to get gold? I couldn't do it any other way... best I could do without riding the was was within 2 tenths of the gold time.
    • I definitely get the low power, sporty car to drive to smash gears but not be doing eleventy million miles an hour! It makes all the normal drives fun!   Rev match tune sounds like the funs! I didn't know the NC had a DBW throttle!   As for me, still have the Skyline, it still has the Barra in it. It's been pushed to the side of the workshop at the moment. Pretty much waiting on me finishing the wiring, and dropping new fuel lines in. Got myself an ACDC Tig end of last year so been teaching myself TIG welding to build a few things for the Skyline. The missus wrote off her GTB liberty at the end of last year, and got it back on salvage rights stupid cheap. It's also still registered, so will mean easier for me to take to the track already done most of the panel damage, just playing "clear the workshop" to make space to pull the motor and box out, fix some oil leaks, replace the clutch, and replace a few minor broken things.  Also got a Lathe at the start of the year, which is adding to the annoyance of no space, which is another reason I'm trying to build things to get more space, to get the Lathe back in a final home for it. It's a BIG lathe, can turn a 355mm diameter, and 1metre between centres... Got it at a steal! So between it and the TIG and old MIG welder, I'll be fabbing some fun little shit up But we've had a lot of shit stuff happening at home, so it's slow going getting things done. But one step at a time!
    • I love Catalunya.  Got a 1:54.632. The AMG is a hoot.
    • I hadn't got that far, my main worry was the connection to the actual calipers themselves. I'm just using new (ish) stock brake lines in the stock setup. I've just had a stud welded to the knuckle that is a little lower than the original stud (so my knuckles have two studs each side) to not have it be stretched so far in previous BBK setups, so the "block" (in the second picture) mounts a little lower for me and I hope I don't need to change anything. I may have even changed the connection to the calipers in the past and have since forgotten I did that. I may not have. Guess how I'm gonna find out. Source: hopium
