Driver charged after SA Police graduation burn-outs

Article from: The Advertiser

A STAGGERINGLY stupid hoon decided the best place to do a burn-out was outside the Police Academy during a graduation ceremony - he was wrong.

A police officer on his way to yesterday's graduation ceremony at Fort Largs saw a car doing a burnout on Military Rd about 10.30am. He pulled the driver over and cautioned him.

A short time later, during the graduation ceremony, which was attended by most of SA Police's highest ranking officers, the man was seen doing another burn-out outside.

A patrol was sent to the man's address at North Haven, where he was charged with misuse of a motor vehicle. His car was defected and impounded for seven days and, as an added bonus for police, he was also charged with cultivating three cannabis plants.

Actually i misread the article initially thinking it was one of the cadets doing the burnouts ... so you can ignore my "oh the irony" comment. What a fool this dude is.

Lol that's a classic!!

Amazing he only got cautioned the first time for ripping skids, though.

if it was a import it would have been impounded straight away

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
