Lend me your eyes, oh posse!

I left work this afternoon, turned a corner (albeit somewhat sideways?) and went up the hill, never more than 65kmph... speed camera truck on opposite side of the road, on the side where traffic would be going downhill.

It flashed as I was coming up to it :D

Do you think its possible the guy inside set it off manually to get my plates etc?

OR is it more likely someone going the other way was speeding at the same time? Which side of the road/which way do they face?

EDIT: Yes, dumb, I know... shouldn't be doing stupid things.

They for the side of the road they're on - you should be fine.

OR - they take photos of the traffic going the same direction that their camera is pointing (usually the same side of the road they're on - but I've heard of some vans that have 2 cameras)

But I still think you'll be fine.

What do you need sockets for? Removing crossover pipe + coilpack cover etc? Or are you without coilpack cover? If you're without then you just need a phillips head screw driver... although you've probably thought of that already hahaha

removing strut brace, crossover pipe and blow off valve.

got allan keys and screwdrivers. Thought about trying it with my shifters, but it'd probably take me all fkn day

That does not sound good

they can get you on both sides of the road. old boss got done by one with me in the car. camera was on the other side, flashed as he went past doing 70. got the fine two weeks later.

good luck. hopefully it was for someone on the other side.

Don't the cameras have to point the same direction that the car is travelling though?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
