For those of you not following the Saga, to cut a long story short:

The (ex) head of the Police union: Mullet and the ex assistant commissioner (Ashby) have been charged with perjury and misleading the OPI (office of police integrity).

These charges relate to the questioning of these individuals by the OPI regarding the police leaking of a police informants name to Melbourne's underworld which subsequently led to the murder of the informant and his wife.

A former detective has been charged with this murder.

The latest in this saga (see link) is that Ashby has alleged that a Govt frontbencher Pallas knew of the OPI investigation and warned him not to speak to mullet over the phone.

Fellow Victorians out there be warned: YOUR POLICE FORCE IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED. These are the real criminals. If it goes as high as the assistant police commissioner (2nd top cop) then how can you trust the local senior sergent.

"Uphold the right"??!! "Uphold our bank accounts" more like it!

These guys say they are concerned about road trauma and safety, pfft that's just political spin, to uphold their image in the eyes of the mass media hypnotised public. I fear far more for my and my family's safety from thugs within Victoria Police than from characters such as Mich Gatto and bikie gangs.

I say if the states can't run it give it to the Feds. Get rid of the state police force and hand over the job to Federal police. Vic police should be disbanded. Let the Feds step in and show em how its done. Catch the real criminals aka Vic Pol.

not exactly sure how high your argument is gonna be upheld...altho interestingly enough,

i had to go to Melbourne Magistrates court couple weeks ago with a mate to accompany him to his driving case, and i couldn't help but notice that 90% of all cases that are now heard in court are all driving related, if not more.

And i couldn't help thinking - our entire system has turned from one that upholds the course of justice amongst the ppl to one big revenue making machine that jumps pumps money out of the public for the most ridiculous of things. The police, courts and media seem to be there as the 'bells and whistles' to make all these charges 'official' and 'law abiding' but all it is, is one big hefty procedure to make it unquestionable and un-challengable

its late, i can't sleep and i dunno if that makes any sense....MEH...

This POST should be closed down

'Rant' is a correct description for this type of crap - a totally illogical and irrational mix of some truth, half-truth, nonsense, prejudice, and stupidity leading to an unworkable proposal - just for one example, you would need all the States to agree to amend the Australian Constitution for a Federal police take-over of policing in any state and that could only take place after a referendum within Victoria where the people vote for change of the State Constitution.

Aahh but everythings oh so simple when you do not the even to bother to think about the real world including the law and the Constitution - has the sponsor of the post ever heard of the Constitution and even understand what it is and why it exists?

But I think we get the drift of the agenda..................so we should all be humble to common criminals and pay people like the person you named in good terms, Mr Gatto and bikie gangs, bribes and protection money just to go about our daily lives ? Don't think so!

Maybe some people want to make Australia more like Beirut or Somalia etc but I am confident the majority are pleased as it now is despite some imperfections from time to time.

So people complain when 'hoons' ruin it for all motoring enthusiasts with the press , yet suddenly ALL police are corrupt? How do you think all the honest cops feel about the coverage of this incident?? A few bad apples are spoiled, doesn't mean the whole bunch is.

but when a few bad apples happen to be so high and influencial they definately have a heavy sway on the acceptable basic conduct of many.

of course not all cops are corrupt/bad. but Vic cops have got to have the most power tripping, law breaking, down right untrustable lot in the country.

considering it goes that high up i'd venture to say more than a few are.. Think about it, cops are just people, if someone offered me ludicrous amounts of money to turn the other way or forget/lose something i would.. mind you that might just make me an arsehole

You see heaps of lesser examples of it on this site with all the people getting defected and treated unfairly just because some cops had a bad day or is a holden/ford fan

NOt sure that they are all corrupt...they just dont have their priorities right....

in a half hour drive you will see plenty with their radar guns on the side of the road or parked at the bottom of hills, on overtaking lanes etc.... booking people for anything and everything. Just to fill their quota....

but call them urgently because you have apprehended a burgular in your own house and it takes them 45min to get there ( true story 3 of us had to pin the bloke for 45min whilst his accomplice climbed out an upstairs window and fled and we waited and waited and waited) :)

Not only that ....the bloke is caught red handed goes to court (4th offence) and gets nothing but a suspended sentence and a slap and is let out back on the street to do it again..... :down:

If you drive 5km over the limit you get fined and demerit points which can result in loss of licence, means loss of job, means defaulted mortgage payments means loss of house In the end you may as well break into people homes and steal I mean at least until you get caught a few times....

:D

I think Taso must have been on the singing syrup again. Pretty standard post for him about Police... you get used to it.

He has an issue with the law, but he sings best in the early AM hours :)

I agree mate, they are nothing but tax men to fund new freeways and bypasses. Never there when you need them but always there to ask for money. Tell me it's not the truth...it's happend to me plenty of times.

They do have more than one patrol car you know....Its just most of them are on traffic duty and when you call them and report that you are holding the bloke you expect a quick response

Had they taken any longer they would have been attending a murder....... as I have no sympathy for scum who steal.... and when you come home to find your house trashed and the smack head still in your lounge filling his bags with everthing he can get his filthy hands on and then threatens you with a screwdriver if you dont move out of the way...... I challenge anyone not to give the bloke a good beating. and had I know that he would get off......it would have been a severe beating.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving.

      What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
