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.

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
