Again good work guys.

Does anyone have a simplified version of your legal rights when pulled over in Queensland? Or know which piece of legislation would have that information? And a list of does and don’ts with the twenty questions?

If I can get some spare time I will try look into this more.

This would be great to post up, keep a copy in your car. Either way we are all going to get pulled over for some reason.

Nismo Girl: your right, you can generally get the feel for a cop car tailing even at night, like a 6th sense.

Note the obvious patern. They are all Australian built cars.

If they try to race you, don't.

If you own a turbo skyline, you will beat them anyway.

When they get jap cars, then were in real trouble.

I heard yesterday that there is a 180sx on the gold coast that is a cop car. True or False?

Hey Erin,

Do you think the number plates for the Magna are the same as this........ "Holden VY 'S' Commodore Sedan, Lime Green with the number plate 361 IAC"?

Does anybody know if cops swap the numberplates around when they renew regos on the cars?

You have to be really careful around any car you think is a cop car. Most highly ranked police officers (usually superintendent and above) are issued with police service vehicles. These are either a S pac brand new commodore or a Ford Fairmont Ghia.

All cop cars have a little sticker in the bottom right hand corner of the window. It's a white sticker with a Q and a V in green and a border of green.

Just to let you know there's no such thing as cop or "D" mags anymore they got rid of them because people were looking out for them.

Over this year and last year they have been working to make the cars a lot harder to notice, so things like CD arials etc probabbly won't be on cars for much longer.

Also I've never heard of WRX cop cars ever being in QLD, I know NSW and VIC tried them out but they took them off the road after 10 months, because their speed check thing in the car didn't work correctly and they had to give heaps of people back the money they had taken in fines.

A cop car can't pull you over in front of you because they have to make a speedo check from the cop car, this is done for court.

So if you were doing 110 in a 100 zone, they would have to follow you for so long to make the speedo check then they can pull you over the cop cars keep a record of the speeds they have been doing.

That's one way of getting out of a fine, because if it's found that they weren't travelling at a proper speed etc then the fine could be dismissed.

Also a normal cop car can only do 170Klms at the max before they have to drop of because the lights cause too much drag in undercover cop cars not sure.

that's everything I've heard from a guy whose brother works as a cop in the roma st cop shop.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
