Go!

Also Josh did you know we are both in the top 40 posters on this site...so much wasted youth whoring :( lol

I had an unmarked car following me... for AGES. I didn't know if he was waiting for me to stuff up or what, so I just made sure to be extra careful, no zingenator carry on and all that sort of business.

Anyway, I hit Grandard Rd, and at the same time I'm going through the speed van spot, so does a BMW who is absolutely fanging it. Must have been doing at least 90 in a 60 zone... and I'm thinking "oh come on! quit following me and go get him"... but then I thought, maybe because the speed camera flashed there's nothing more he can do about it now.

Well, out of the side street comes ANOTHER cop car, and pulls ME over. The D car pulls up too, I'm assuming to join in on the defect fun. The uniform cop comes up to my window and asks for my licence and is it my car and all that, and I handed it over, yes sir, no sir, etc. THEN the uni tells me "we just clocked you doing 87 through a 60 zone.

"BULLSHIT! That was the Beemer!"

"Yeah, yeah, like we never hear that it was someone else from you import hoons"

"Huh?! Are you blind? I mean shit, that BMW was flying, but it wasn't going faster than the speed of light! AND IT WAS BLACK!! MY CAR IS NOT BLACK! How can you not tell the difference between a black car and a red car and see which is going faster?!"

The plain clothes boy gets out of his car at this stage obviously wondering what all the screaming and fuck yous are about. And asks the Uni what's going on.

"We just clocked this guy doing 87 in a 60 zone, and he's trying to blame it on someone else"

"Oh? Really? Who's he trying to blame it on? The guy in the BMW that I was about to pull up who was doing 87? Or someone else?

"What?"

"The BMW was the one speeding, this guy was doing the speed limit. I've been following him since Mt Ommaney and he hasn't set a foot wrong."

"..but... the radar... and..."

"The van over there even flashed when the BMW went past and overtook the two of us... how did you miss it?"

At this point the plain clothes takes my licence from the other bloke, hands it to me, and says "Off ya go mate. I'll sort this one out."

I'm just like :P:huh::O and GTF outta there!

I wonder if uni boy is gonna wind up back in basic training?

awesome story. at least the plainclothes wasn't a f**ktard

edit: you should have taken the uniform's badge number and made a complaint. general incompetance and assuming you're a hoon for driving an import. much lols could have ensued.

I'd love to JUST ONCE have a normal police encounter!

I'd love to just once have a police encounter like that one. :P

farken funny. luckily you were being tailed by the undercover, or most likely you would have either been fined for speeding, or failing that, he may have defected you for something because he was unable to make the speeding stick

I'd love to just once have a police encounter like that one. :P

All of mine are like that. It's frigging ridiculous. I don't get pulled over often... but when I do it's always something epic like that.

I know! It took a long time for my sphincter to get back to it's regular tension :P

thats because you're one of them import hoons with hektik fitment bro.

I don't get pulled over often...

I've not been pulled over since that f*ckwit who got me for 'faulty' high beams.

You must have been pulled over on average once a week since then :P

haha not quite.

One was my pulled over 3 times from stafford to eagle farm adventure - so that in itself is an epic encounter.

The other was because I turned off when you went straight ahead, and according to Mr Plod I didn't indicate. That was would have been normal if they didn't hunt me down and try to trap me in a housing estate. I swear he thought I was trying to do a Gone In Sixty Seconds.

I'm pretty sure they're the only two times I've been pulled over since your high beam thing. Apart from RBTs, but they don't count.

google JB :O

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
