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

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
