Yeah, as others have stated, in my opinion this is a bad idea. Not to shit on you Kel, don't take it the wrong way, but I'd be VERY weary of what is going on here. I like others, have too much to loose by having a cop sniffing around my car. Sure they may not do shit on the cruise but I'm 100% sure they'll be making a mental note to look for me later on.

I wish you the best of luck with this one, I think you're gonna need it :yes:

Awesome..

Obvious Dangerous mods:

Car too low

Wheels too big

etc etc.

I wont be coming either, i dont mind driving past cops on the road, but im not keen on them looking at my car while it is parked. My tyres are camber worn and are very very close to being illegal, not going to take the risk.

I'll be there.

The guys don't understand Kell, they weren't there yesterday. I reckon the police attitude yesterday was very accomodating considering the recent death in Fulham Gardens and the squeeze they are under.

I think this time the stags will outnumber the skylines the way this is going :D

Ruby.. So pretty much what Kel is doing is 'banning' any one with a car that has anything more than a stock turbo......

Where does it say that? :)

Cops have attended Kell's cruises before with positive results. What makes things so different now? :D

welldone ruby and kellie. good to get some insight.

but whos to say when you go around the corner you dont get a cop from a diff station ?

this is only one cop out of many.

He could be getting info on the latest mods, taking notes. so he can tell others.

some are nice.

totally wont be attending as police love my car for the wrong reasons

good luck with the cruise Kellie, Hope you get a decent and respectable turnout !

Lol I'd be scared just driving that thing in the city!! The orange paint and the number plate say it all!!

hope the cruise goes well kell!

would have love to come down but theres 2 things that scare me, needles and cops :D

once again kell, hope all goes well! will catch up soon for sure :)

Kye, have you kept a defect tally for you?! Pretty sure you'd be in the 20+ mark hahah

And yes, I agree with Ryan. Do we really need to get even more involvement with the police? We're on borrowed time. One cop cannot control the entire force...

Paranoid bunch aren't we? :D

And the hoon doing the burnout down the road is one owner of many imports. One bad import driver makes all of us bad?

"All import drivers are hoons"

"All cops are bad"

The reality is somewhere in the middle. Cops have a job to do, yes some are too strict. Import owners have a passion for their cars, yes some are total hoons. The feedback we get anyway is all based on hearsay or a friend of a friend's story. Thats it in a nutshell. You can try to get along with the cops, or just be on your merry way and join the paranoid bunch with something to hide logging onto forums and being negative about the whole thing.

uhhh they are popping hoods.......

So where is it said that Kellie is banning people with mods?

Why did more involvement with the police have to happen? Everyone got left alone at the last 8 cruises.

over it.

it's not like it was up for open discussion with them yesterday...

In the eyes of the law...........yes

"All cops are bad?"

In the eyes of the young hoons.........yes

Actually, the police have attended the meet spot of Kell's cruises in the past. How do you think she got a good rep? The cops left everyone alone thereafter.

The stag cruise yesterday had cops turn up at the meet point, then we were left alone thereafter. No one's been defected thru cooperation. :D

That isn't stating Kellie is banning anyone - Its stating what kellie is doing in a round about way is 'banning' any one that has anything more than a stock looking turbo.

:D

Nothing against Kellie maybe she's in a difficult position, kind of forced to invite the police if you will - if she doesn't they will go to town on any future events that they happen to find out about.

I rarely attend SAU cruises anyway so I have little to be concerned about. However it would have been nice to meet you one day though Ruby.

well kellie doesn't have access to a computer all of the time so i was responding for her...

you said "why did more involvement with the police have to happen? Everyone got left alone at the last 8 cruises."

and i simply responded saying that it really wasn't open for discussion.. Either kell works with them on her cruises, as she has always done anyway... or when they see us out they'll pull us over, and thats when we'll have to bend over and get ready to be screwed!

Please don't take my posts as trying to turn u in to believers, because i very much respect EVERYONE'S opinion, and definitely understand all points being made.

I'm just trying to help everyone know exactly how and why it happened.

:D

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
