According to the police i have a pretty long driving record ..... 17 offences or something i can't remember how many the police officer that pulled me over last said.

Just general stuff - there was only once where i think the police officer was unreasonable - i was on my way to Bunbury for a wedding and my mum was in the car there was a cop on the side of the road doing Laser. I was in the Skyline and a Landcruiser passed me and cop let him pass but pulled me over - my mum thought it was obviously a bias towards the type of car i was driving and i gave her such a laugh when i took off after getting my ticket accidentally spraying the officer with gravel that she offered to pay my fine.

As mentioned been pulled over plenty of time and never once got a yellow sticker in the Skyline - paul drives it one night and gets pulled over and they threatened him with the yellow so he pleaded with them not too because i would kill him. LOL

I do think if you are female and turn on the charm you do get away with a bit more than the blokes can ;) i'm most depressed there are more and more females joining the force :D

Never being pulled over, my stock car blends in well with the surrounding commodres, fords & camrys... Its like the Cops never notice me at all... which is good I guess ;)

Heres a couple of examples,

1 A couple of months back, I went to JB Hi-Fi in Osborne Park, & I parked right next to a cop car, & while I was getting out, the cop came back, he didn't even notice my car & just opened his boot, took out some paper work & went away again.

2 Was coming back from work after a closing shift ~ midnight on Saturday, on Wanneroo road & there were cops breath testing people, as I approached them, the queue for the breath test line opened up a new space, but instead of directing me to go onto it, the cop with the glow stick thing, gave me the wave to go through & put the commodore behind me onto the queue instead (that car had a bunch of people in it).

*punches dani in the face* ;)

i dropped my gf off at home and driving home on the freeway. wrx drove past me pretty fast so i followed from berragan drv past leach or canning. there was road works so i slowed down and the wrx got behind me, after we past he changed lanes and boosted it off, 5 secs later i see light flashing so i change to the left lane and it follows so i was pretty angry coz i stayed the speed limit and the wrx boosted it off he didnt even slow down when the light were flashing. so the P plater in the 34 gets pulled over and yelled at for about 10 mins. after that the cop just gave me a warning and took off fast.

second time me and my friends were going to freo esplanade and got lost. had my gf, my lil sis and me in one car and my friend in his car. he called me and told me to turn the car around coz he thought he knew where to go. i turn into a street and some guy yells get off the fone, so i reved it and went down the road and did a u turn. next thing i see is 2 guys on the road holding badges and my friend pulling into a carpark. we both got a ticket for being on the phone while driving. the cop came and he started off a bit rude but my gf and little sis talked to him and told him our situation[bit of flirting] so he became nice and told us how to get there and if we got lost to turn around and come back coz they would still be in that area :laughing-smiley-014:

Bearing in mind I'm not a bad driver... Here goes.

1: RBT. My mate gets flagged through in his Liberty, I was shitting myself cos I'd had my license for an month and I was scared of cops. Guy looks at my car for a bit and sends me on my way.

2: Pulled over in Malaga at 11:30 at night. Yeah, I understand why, but I wasnt doing anything stupid. No burnouts, speeding, just cruising through with my mate in his car. Breath-tested, car checked out, and asked about "list" on my drivers seat (Map from the Easter Cruise). Let me go

3: This is my favourite, and MARKO_R34GTT can back me up here. For some STUPID reason, I thought it would be cool to try and see how fast my car would go up to. Wound it past 180 before slowing down to 120, then noticed the flashing lights in my mirror. I swore, Marko swore, I said good bye to the car, and then pulled over. Got out and greeted them, before having a nice chat to the detective that got out. He took my details, warned me it was too fast, then send me on my way... I couldnt believe I got off!!

4: Doing 80 in a 60 zone, my friend noticed the cops turning out of a side street, so I slowed down to 55 and went past. As soon as I had gone past the lights their lights came on and pulled me over. The accused me of racing the SSS pulsar next to me (If I was racing, I would have been MUCH further in front!), looked over my car, asked me a heap of questions, couldnt believe my engine bay was so stock, breathalised me, tried the whole good cop/bad cop thing, was half way through writing me a ticket when they asked me why I didnt deserve it. I'm a shocking liar, so I just said that I did deserve it, and that I knew I was speeding. They ripped up the ticket and sent me along... WTF???

5: 60 in a 50 zone. Got the ticket, but was let off for not having P-plates up. They were lying on the parcel shelf though... my bad!! Chick in the passenger seat just glared at me the whole time for some reason.

6: Cop did a U-turn as they saw me entering Wangara at 9:30 at night. I was going in there because one of the guys at work told me about a place that sold cheap air tools and that was the excuse I gave the cop, who still thought I was going to do burnouts! Telling him I was coming back from drift practice didnt help either... The cop in the drivers seat stayed in the car, but yelled at me "Wheres your P's??" very rudely (too important to get out of the car I'm guessing) so I put my P back up (it had fallen down again) before they selt me on my way. Their excuse was "there are a lot of break-ins around here, and you dont want to have any trouble with them"... Not sure why they drove OUT of Wangara after that...

7: This is the latest one. It was about 11pm last wednesday, coming back from my mates 19th. I was annoyed I couldnt drink, I had Tafe early the next morning, and I was really tired. I sat on 140 all the way down until about 5m away from the Ried Hwy turn off someone flashes their high beams at me. Looking in the mirror ready to swear at the arsehole, I notice the flashing lights... I swore at myself. They clocked me at 135 in a 100 zone, which led to a $700 fine and 5 demerit points. This is the one I was talking about in the WA section.

What have I learned?

1: I'm an idiot

2: Don't speed

3: If you dont like being pulled over, stay out of imports and industrial areas at night

4: Show some leg ;)

I've only ever been pulled over once and that was because i didn't pay for my rego on time, so it was my fault. He asked me to pop the bonnet and asked if I had the papers for the mods... I showed him the paper... he actually said "wow, we didn't think you'd have the papers for the modifications" ;)

I think he was just being easy on me though, because I had a service the week after and got told my tyres were in a completely illegal state..

Also, during number 6 the cop felt my tyres for thread. My fronts were bakd due to wheel allignment issues, rears were down to the indicators partly because of allignment issues... But he didt suspect a thing!! Got new tyres 4 days later

Yeah, they did that with me after the 4 cops had me pulled over, The cop was yelling, swearing and spitting. He goes, "why were you driving like a f**king idiot?!?!?!" I didn't want to be a smartarse so I said, "cause I am an idiot" then he changed his tune and goes "Well, you've got a job, your going to tafe, you've got a nice car, you don't seem like an idiot" then let me off...

^^ same here

Ive yet to be pulled over in my R33.

Not sure why tho? But im not complaining! :D

In my previous car (V8 ute) i got pulled over a few times... twice for my 10 000k HID's (They kindly let me off with warnings on both occasions.. and after the second warning i thought i was pushing my luck to much, and changed them to 6000k) and once for going side ways around a corner.

The cop was off duty doing some gardening ! ... he let me off with a warning tho. But he was a mean son of a b*tch,.. swearing his head off, even tho i had a girl in the passenger seat... Not sure if he let me off becuase he was off duty? or cause he had to due to the old hoon laws, where you got a warning the first time you did it...

And now i got two policeman living on my street about two houses away!! haha... one sergeant the other a traffic cop. Lucky they are nice! and told me i had a very clean r33 =)

I got pulled over once for being the only driver with enough balls to overtake a cop car doing 50 in a 70 zone. Didn't get done for anything, but they guy was just driving stupid slow in the left lane, and put the siren on as soon as i went passed in the right.

As far as getting pulled over for having a different paint job tho Mel.. that's not unreasonable. Resprayed cars which haven't updated their rego are possible stolen cars.. most often they won't be, but personally I'd rather cops do their job..

I was pulled over on L's, for going "way too fast for a learner" lol.

I wasn't speeding, I was just accelerating hard lol.

He yelled at mum for having the dog on her lap while she was supposed to be teaching me how to drive lol.

Edit: Oh yeah, and 2 RBT's, 1 on L's and the other on P's. The one on P's was in the zed which smelt like unburnt fuel at the time, so I was shitting myself hoping they didn't have a look at the car lol, would have been stickered for sure, and wouldn't pass the pits easily. The other RBT & the time I was pulled over both happened in the magna. I was just hoping neither of them looked at the tyres on the magna lol.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
