Did anyone notice the major increase of patrol in the SE area of knox/rowville/Ferntree Gully etc around them on saturday night.. as expected coming upto christmas but dam i have never seen so many cops in all of the xmas patrols they do.. saturday night atleast EVERY 200 metres there was a cop car or undercover cop car pulled someone over on stud road and very little on burwood highway. i never seen anything this big in one night lol it was amusing to me... along with a few booze buses along stud road. and to top it off their new undercover cop car the Blue Evo X!! Pretty cool undercover car though lol.

yea Bez~ they're everywhere. Saturday night at the Glen is like going down Chapel St now. Lucky for me, my car was parked when the inspection cars came through.

I know they're just doing their job, but sometimes you can't help but feel picked on...

You should have seen how many of us were walking around in City Fri/Sat night. In Swanston Street almost every street corner and will be the same all summer.

Yup agreed

There must have been at LEAST 100 officers on foot, last 2 weekends in the CBD.

I've never seen such police presence.

Marked, unmarked, Divvy vans, cars, response vans, marked police, under covers... the absolute works.

Last weekend alone, there must have been 50 officers out front of Amber Lounge (and in surrounding street) on Lonsdale St, but then cops are there everyweek that im surprised that place is still open. Im assumming the partons there cant help but stab themselves for whatever reason :)

I even see that weird truck thing with the camera's on it.

Graeme - what real purpose that thing serve? I mean honestly, if you see a marked cop van, with 11ty cameras on it to cover all angles, you aint gonna be doing anything illegal now are you? :)

you'll be right beza.... unless its too low and the sparkly paint piss's the cops off.

i think it will be Suzuki Ignis time for me :) dont even get noticed in that haha.

yeah i was at amber lounge i think 2-3 weeks ago, noticed about 8cops right in front having a chat, 5more in the middle of the road car park and a few more bunches up the road.

while this little door lady with a messed up attitude trying to get the whole crowd to line up in 2's so they dont get fined for blocking the foot path.... cops were just laughin cause no one could move

I can't wait for them all to take the extra annual leave they built up :P.

They're cracking down extremely hard to try and reduce the statistics for the Christmas period which I'm fine with, but I don't like the way they're going about it at all...

I think that marked police car with all the camera's is a joke too. I couldn't imagine it assisting with any files just there to deter/prevent offences.

In relation to all the extra police in City they are all working on Leave or R/D as we get 10 hours double time for walking around the city in groups. It's the goverments way of covering for the lack of members. I did pretty much nothing excwpt showing police presence and got huge money for it.

This is going until march and there is about 150 extra police each night just walking around. So far I would say it's working as there were only handful of fights in both nights combined compared to hundreds over a normal weekend.

    • 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?
