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:

.....just gotta figure what size juggs im after...set like lucy pinder would b hot as.....

"C" FTW...but what ever suits really, their all good...are you coming on the cruise? lol ;)

lol Keith! He even goes "if you don't let the dpi know, police will continue pulling you over, however you are a pleasure to talk to" and winked at me LOL I was like 'uhh...ok...thanks' :laughing-smiley-014:

Harden up and come on the cruise chick. :D

It's time to set my cup down. See you'all tomorrow

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 ;)

Moderators: Please modify this post if neccessary.

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

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???

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..

so true, really. At least he was cool about it. And I'm a god girl so it's not liek they could've done anything to me. It just spun me out that's all. Funny really, first time i get pulled over is regarding my paint job lol :D

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.

square :P lol kidding

I'm a good boy, I swear :blush:

I only drive my car about 7000km a year and its always the same path lol so thats probably got something to do with it, dont see many cops SOR either

    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
