For a while now we all know about the crackdown on hoons, booze buses, drug testings ect...

but what i been spotting is rather interesting but scary.

last week going to the wheeler's was at traffic lights when unmarked cop pulls up right next to me...driving old ford falcon model ( i dont think ive seen cops driving ford ion very long time)....was a bit worried since i had 1 more person sitting in the middle of the 33..as you know theres no middle seat. but they went by and didnt take notice

then few days ago was at knox and saw under covers driving a toyota orion or camry...

then again i saw another patrol car which was a unmarked holden vt....

only way i realised they were cops was because of the jackets they were wearing and the antena out the back.

just thought id let some of you guys know to be careful as they could be anywhere and you may not take notice. so a warning ..if anyone attempting to do anything in public or around traffic ....look out around you cause cops may be closer than you think now.

there are policemen who don't work in the TMU, most of whom couldn't give a rats arse about your car. Plus policemen do own normal cars that they drive to and from work while wearing their jackets.

yeah thats true aswel except with the orion/camry they pulled someone over and falcon had lights and gadgets still in it...duno about the vt though.

but still...theres a crackdown so everyone should be careful these days.

There is going to be a MASSIVE crack down due to operation RAID. We had a station meeting and our S/SGT has told us basically to fine everyone and do as many PBT's as possible as every stations stats are going to be examined by extremely highly ranked members.

So in next few weeks don't expect any warnings to be given.

isn't operation RAID more to do with breath tests and drug tests? that shouldn't make guys in sports cars any bigger targets than someone in a regular car should it?

i am sure the information given is detering some drivers from acting up, so therefore having a positive effect... if the higher powers are pissed off about that, f**k em.

and people complain that this guy is a cop... srsly wtf?

thanx for the heads up graeme :blink:

apparently dont know if anyone knows i red a article in go auto news basically saying very soon cops will be driving in victoria with wrx and hsv clubsports unmarked with p's on them trying to drag people and all that but the only good thing is ,is that the cops in the car will be wearing policy uniform

I've regularly seen an undercover corolla (grey?) sitting on Mont Albert road with speed cam attatched, very sneaky.

Also there is regularly a older falcon wagon (cant remember if it was green or maroon) on Warrigal road towards the Canterbury road end.

*In the voice off the add* POLICE ARE EVERYWHERE.

man under cover or not..there are cops everywhere......tonight in taylors lakes i spotted about 6 marked and 1 undercover using the speed gun...spotted 3 marked cars in the matter of a minute.

    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY
