Just then I got pulled over the for the first time ever in the GTR since my H.L incident on Marmion St, near Meville Bowls.

Officer comes to the window with a breathalizer,

Officer: Do you know why we pulled you over

Me: 'I dunno. I wasn't speeding...Because you felt like it??' (I was going to say coz I drive a Skyline but meh)

Officer: 'No, because you were revving the shit out of your car'

Me: 'WTF, revving the shit?!' (@ 10:45pm close to residential area)

Officer: 'Well we heard you half way down the street. I think its time for a yellow sticker'

I give officer my licence and he walks off. I get my good ol pen and pad ready to go ape shit on his arse like the cops last time (forgot to bring SD card for camera), however I decided to wait for him to speak first just incase he wasn't a flamin mongrel (though accussing me of something I didn't do already put him in that books pretty much like the Cannington coppers before).

Officer returns with his female partner in toe...

Officer: 'Well it's your lucky day, we have better things to do' (What happend to yellow sticker time? Did it suddenly end? Or is it that maybe in the police records it shows a crazy asian will end up recording you and make you look like an arse on You Tube, ruin your reputation & have the video on head of traffic's Wally Brieley's desk on Monday morning)

Me: 'Well the car is street legal anyway mate'

Officer: 'How am I suppose to know, I'm not a mechanic' (which then leaves the question, how can you yellow sticker a car if you don't know what you're doing)

*Female Officer starts flashing torch at tyres and boost controller display*

Me: Alright, good night.

For those wondering, it seems taking your car to as high as 2,500 rpm equates to 'revving the shit out of your car'. I wasn't speeding or breaking any law what so ever. Would have made a good video if I had remembered my SD card. I think it was the cops lucky day imo.

Look forward to my next encounter :)

Wish I had these kind of balls.

Guys we need to stop ragging on cops hey, Bubba's right they do need to be educated more and it is frustrating when you get done or yellowed for something you are pretty sure is legal or when you feel it's just an accusation, but no bagging cops out hey.

I mean who's the first person you're going to call when someone smashes your window, steels your deck, trashes your car, or steels your skyline all together? Yeah I reckon that'll be the cops... so don't bring on your own karma :laugh:

Constructive critisism like Bubba's comments are granted. But stupid comments like "cops are sh!t" aren't welcome

I forgot to pay my rego and copped a summons on NYE :laugh:

They weren't traffic cops though so it was all pretty casual. Young pommy copper had me pop the bonnet, went over my permits, had my start the car and rev it a bit to make sure the bov wasn't too loud..

We then proceded to have a chat while we waited for the older cop to get out of his car. We discussed such things as, his dislike for aboriginals, working on the holidays, the spec's of his gun. Was quite amusing.. until I got the summons in the mail yesterday :D

not to Say your not wrong but in many many many 99% cases everyone does calls the cops BUT (theirs always a but)

What do they do Nothing in 99% cases they dont lift a finger and if they do they come late / sorry not much we can do about it ,We will try to keep a look out! not sure if it the encounter i had but thats what i have to say!

Bubba that sux! You thought you were in the clear didn't you!!! Naughty Boi!!! :sweat: Why didn't you pay your rego? Just forgot? I handed a cop an expired licence and he didn't say anything :) later found my proper one in the glvoe box. Thought that would come up on the check?

Just got forgotten in the Xmas confusion :( It was paid 40mins after they pulled me over.

They pulled me over because they saw the wrong colour sticker! If they were traffic cops they probably would have pulled me over because I was driving a Skyline and then given me a yellow sticker :D

the other night i came off freeway onto burns beach rd booze bus was parked round corner. Now about 20 cars came round corner with me as lights went green i was the only 1 pulled into bus rest where waved through (guess the bright yellow skyline with vented bonnet was to attractive for them)

Cop: Evening sir random breath test

Me: Pretty random that the import is the only car to get pulled in

Cop: Strange the way that happens

(he leans in window looks at APEXi dash to notice 300km speedo)

Cop: So how fast this thing go

Me: Speed limit (come on what did he expect me to say)

Took nearly 5 min to get through bus as 4 cops decided they wanted to check out the car. Seriously they target us all and hassle us mainly cause they want to have a look at the cars or simply they r jealous.

    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
