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.

i saw a MARKED sukuzi swift cop car 2 days ago in dandy. and im seeing alot more territory's along stud road / dandy area. i loled when i saw the swift all done up with the sirens n marked car. you just dont expect to see it! but atleast its good there doing a crackdown. get few nutcases off the road i guess.. lol

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.

    • Morning all, I have an RB25DET Neo that's in need of a rebuild. Will need new pistons etc due to detonation damage. Would anyone be able to recommend a shop in Southeast Queensland who I could bring my long motor to for a rebuild? Just want someone who knows RBs and whos built a bunch of them before. TLDR - recommended engine shops for RB rebuild.
    • Gday Thought it was about time I started a build thread! As expected this project has snowballed into a huge financial liability, but unless you’re strong willed and responsible, it’s not a surprise. Background -  My first turbo car was an R32 GTS-4, got my full license and then totalled my Au Falcon a week later, so while trying to sell my RMZ450 dirtbike to buy another car a bloke offered to swap the R32 which at the time I felt like I was ripped off but looking back and seeing prices of those now ($40kish) it was a good deal, I didn’t know enough about these cars to appreciate what I had so sold it before the RB20 blew up. Between here and there, out of 12 cars I’ve owned the note worthy ones are a V8 Lexus SC400 (soarer), a couple of XR6 Turbos and my beloved S15 which I had for about 3 years, picked it up for $12500, repairable write off but she was fine, gun metal grey/pewter and bone stock/unmolested until I got my hands on it. Ended up spending about the value of the car and 280kw, 2 demerit points by the time I got defected and sold it for $14500 (also $40kish in today’s market, rip) Fast forward to the present day, I’m in a much better position financially and daily an MQ Triton (great cars, pipe down Ranger Bois), I cruised marketplace and car sales for a few months looking for another R32, the best deal I could find was an absolute rust bucket half finished project for $12000, until this R33 popped up in Port Macquarie for $18k - unregistered and barely running but decent shape, kept an eye on it for a few weeks and the price steadily dropped, $16k then $15k then $14k, that was the point where I was like shit someone’s gonna snatch this up! It was owned by a young bloke who had big plans but him and his missus just had a baby so smartest move financially for them but big gain for me. So 2 days later I’m towing a car trailer to pick this thing up. Roughly 2 weeks and $3500 later I’m cruising around Newcastle in my beat up R33 all smiles and dose noises! It only needed some basic shit to get it going, coil packs and air flow meter, electrical stuff and all fluids changed, 158k kms and running pretty good, nice smooth engine after oil and coolant flush - when I say coolant I mean it had been filled up with tap water, every gallery and heater element was filled with rust, 8-9 flushes later and still had brown liquid coming out but she’ll be right. The car was painted R34 Bayside Blue at some point but whether it was a cheap job or just not looked after is anyone’s guess, clear coat flaking like sausage roll.  Was rethinking my choices and contemplating life, had it up for sale for $22k - still cheaper than any registered R33 but got little interest, next minute I had an opportunity at work - 6 months overseas for good money, so that was a no brainer, fast forward again and here we are with a 50% finished project. Current Mods - 200ish KW according to butt dyno Was tuned with Apexi PowerFC EBC (old school Greddy Profec)  Stock turbo (more shaft play than a Tinder date gone right) 3inch turbo back Varex muffler  Aftermarket injectors of mystery size, Power FC showed 36% duty cycle at full boost so not behd good size Someone had good intentions but stuck with the stock R33 MAF so we had misfires at 6000rpm due to the MAF hitting 5.2V So far I’ve redone the entire interior with carpet form Car Mats Direct, new Seats and steering wheel from Autotechnica, also sound system by Autobarn (mainly Kicker) Also MCA pro comfort coil overs - Hands down best purchase yet, worlds of improvement over the tired 30yrold shocks Goals - 450kw/600hp on flex tune New paint job - Midnight Purple 2 Engine is at the shop getting rebuilt with forged rods a pistons, new valves and springs, ATI Harmonic balancer, Aeroflow 7.5L sump, rear head drain and oil restrictors as per oil control thread* and cam covers modded for larger breathers, other stuff I can’t recall of the top of my head Parts purchased and to be installed once the engine is done -  Engine loom from Wiring Specialties including these options: Haltech Nexus S3 R35 Coil pack conversion  PRP Dual Trigger kit Fan controller  Other Parts -  262 Kelford Cams Turbo - Hypergear ATR43SS3-ProS with T51R mod (whistly boi) 6 boost manifold (high mount) 50mm Turbosmart Pro gate (plumbed back for legal reasons) HKS Super Turbo Exhaust with High Flow Cat Custom 3.5inch dump and front pipe 1500cc Bosch injectors  Fuel Pump walbro 525 Haltech MAP and IAT sensors Haltech Flex Sensor Fenix Radiator with dual thermo fans LS1 Alternator Kit Oil Filter Relocation from EFI solutions and Cooling pro oil cooler Many other things sitting in my garage waiting for that engine to come back. Progress pics to follow -  
    • Losses have to be less with DC coupling. Provided the battery inverter has decent MPP tracking ability - which really shouldn't be a problem. It's not 2005 any more.
    • Hi, Will the R33 GTR rear brake backing plates fit a GTST? I'm struggling to find GTST ones but can find new GTR ones.   Thanks.
    • I also got the same floor mats for a bit of extra bazzaz haha
