lol what knob jockeys.... why would you race in the streets in one of Australias most heavily policed shires, 2nd of all it sounds like they were both non turbos since they surposedly reached 145 in an 80 zone.... -10km/h from dodgey radar and take off another 20km/h by the time the press writes the story.

So they were probably street racing at a grand total speed of 115ish and 105ishkm/h (Disclaimer: most of what i wrote is made up)

Is anyone clear on what happens to the cars now? - confiscated for how long? - and doesn't the driver have to pay a daily impound fee as well?

lol looks like the skyline won :banana: - but the idiot is paying for it now

I know of a work mates son who lost his car for three months and it cost $250 for the tow truck plus $15 per day.....albeit the car was stored undercover...

I'm also from Balgownie where that skyline is from, any one know the colour of the skyline??.

think you been hiding under a rock..... massive amount of boys in blue from menai/illawong wright through to nulla, mostly situated at alfords point bridge (99% chance of radar on any friday/ saturday), Sutho, miranda (thanks mainly to carmens), carringbar and nulla itself.

also look at the highlighted part above, subconsiously your brains telling you the oppoite of what you were trying to say lol

Cheers and everyone stay clean and out of trouble, media has already made us look like idiots so lets not give them any fuel for another media storm

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
