i have a pod as well but its covered. but even if i didnt have a pod my return pips is running under the battery tray which makes it illegal. cops knows these and thats the first thing they look for with our cars as 90% of the skylines have this setups.

everytime iv been pulled over first hting they look for is the cooler.

Have a look in the vic section, there was a guy who got his hole in the inner gaurd engineered easily.

i reckon they are getting lazy...other day i saw a car try to make the yellow light(turned rd just as he approched the turn) and he went through...what was funny was that there was a undercover cop right behind him trying to quickly make the turn aswel....the cop didnt even pull him over or anything...but if it was a skyline or p-plater...then guranteed to get pulled up

Poor form on their part with a flash light. A quick blip of the red and blues to pull you over and give the car the once over would have sufficed. To shine a spotlight at different parts of the car and make a smart ass comment with the window down doesnt portray them in a good light at all.

tonight at around 8 was at the airstream in glenny and i saw the same unmarked cop car on springvale road going up and down for the 2 hours we were there pulled over nothing but imports. he literally pulled over a black R33 was there for 20 min, went back on road and pulled over an s14 up ahead. i dont think cops are getting lazy just some arent assigned to pull over every single car that has exhaust or rims or whatever

+1, exactly my thoughts.

Im avoiding driving at night and to popular areas thus saving me from getting pulled over.....Im on my P's

I only drive to work and when i really need to.

I do that and I'm 30, obviously with no P's.

I see it from the inside and I can tell you 90% of members do as little as possible and everything to avoid work. I am personally getting very frustrated with it at present. Things so bad that you even struggle to get back up unit when your at say big brawl or man armed with knife and call out for help and nobody even wants to come and help you.

I have been that busy that I have probably only pulled over 10 cars in last 10 shifts on road. I have become a magnet and catch crooks at almost everyjob I go to. Probably because I actually go to the jobs and get there as fast as I can so try to catch them. Most of these jobs too have been out of my area and other's units have been given the job become magically tied up or get there as slow as possible so we end up doing all the work.

It's also been hard with the fires because most people instead of geting their days off have been made to do 12 hr shifts up at fires and then work the normal shifts on top of that.

I ended up working 70 hrs O/T in one fornnight ontop of my normal shifts with overtime processing crooks and overtime at fires and only had 2 days off in 25 days at one stage. I've had days when I have worked 20 hrs straight becasue I caught 5 offenders at end of shift then had to be back in 5 hours ended up working 13 hours after that because of more crooks and my next shift which was rostered day off was another 8 hrs turn around to work 13 hrs at fires.

I just wanted to give you little insite to how things are at present. Morale and work ethic worst it's been by a mile since I have been in the job.

Graeme, atleast there is you out there :D

Keep it up and hopefully your dedication rubs off on your colleagues.

Mate, I wouldn't say it's illegal to do what they did. Lazy and stupid yes but not illegal. As stated before if it had caused collision wouldn't have been good but I'm sure they would have just denied it. It's probably good more lazy members like this if you have modified cars. Not going to get NOU, EPA or fined if they are too lazy to do it.

Nice to see cops actually working their butts off doing something useful for the community rather than the few who's life mission is to defect as many imports on small technicalities (which have no effect on driver or pedestrian safety) as possible.

Good work Graeme, keep it up

    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers
