Yeah but with that story on rann, they ran another web based poll and 9/10's said he'd be out next election - disatisfaction with the Rann govt is widespread at the moment, so again, 'tell him he's dreamin'

-D

Didn't see that one. Well the pollies might back him for another 10 years but it's the voting public who have the final say so you're right, tell him he's dreamin' :)

so the police now use youtube and internet forums to do their job? dont they realise how much bs gets posted on the net?

like mentioned earlier, today tonight pull a feature on adelaide hills "drift racing" footage that turned out it was from the streets of japan, f**k there was even japanese lettering printed on the roads in that vid!

and with the idea of helping change police/media views on imports, that would be like me saying lets help politicians be honest, it isnt gonna happen.

its the fools out there doing stupid shit like burnouts/drift in the suburbs that ruin it for the sensible drivers that understand there is a time and a place for it, and its not on public roads. i agree we need a drag stip and somewhere that holds regular drift meets, like other states. but here in sa we get a revenue camera on every intersection instead!

Anyway I don't care about defects/blitzes/hoon laws, I have a 100% stock car that I drive like a pensioner

+1 for me too :)

u will prob find that when u get caught at a redlight speed camera u will now get defected also via the mail...

hahahahhaah

not long before you can get defected for not folding toilet paper in a certain measurement

or if you fart over a certain db

I remember reading an article about noise cameras that detect cars that are too loud take a picture of the said car and send a fine to the owner.

My arse got defected! :):)

Haha, apparently it works like a normal speed camera but has a series of microphones to pick up sound and is triggered by sounds over a certain decibel. I can't remember what they said about placement but I'm pretty sure they only have them in the eastern states.

to take a snap of an unrego'd car we'd need to have implemented an e-rego system. electronic licence plates basically, youd be detectable at every set of lights, ever revenue camera, etc.

I used to work opposite that Advertiser building. I was sure to give the building a angry glare now and again.

it wouldn't be too hard to build character recognition into a camera linked to transport SA so when a plate triggers a non reg flag the registered owned gets a nice letter with tickets to the ball

lol madaz many yrs ago i got pulled over and the copper said do you know why i pulled you over ? i said to give me tickets to the policemans ball ..... he replied your getting a ticket alright son but you wont be dancing lol

seemed funny at the time tho

It seems the imports are the flavour of the month! Guess they've given up on shutting down the bikies, so now we're next on the hit list :D

A few years ago it was Harley's that were too loud! Before that they picked on the V8 boys! Before that they picked on horses with noisy shoes :(

After talking with a mate who happens to be a cop, even he said its crap! He said they need to pick up the smoke blowing rust buckets with bald tyres, not us import drivers who in most cases modify our cars to improve them and modify them more safely than the commonwhore or falcoon drivers!

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
