Tonight when i was driving around totally lost in cannington sort of area lol, on my way home from Pot Black, i was driving out of a mcdonalds parking where someone in what i think was a 300ZX had been pulled over by some cops in an SS commodore. I had to give way to a couple of cars, so i was sitting there looking straight at this scene. The cop outside of the car looked at me for awhile and then pointed at me and made some hand motion which i now think was indicating me to pull over. Anyway i didnt realise and just pulled off. A little while later i was stopped at a traffic light and the same cops pulled up next to me. They were checking me out the whole cycle until our light turned green and we got going. About a minute up the road the cop changed lanes and came up behind me. Eventually they turned their lights on and flashed me, so i started pulling over. As we came to a stop on the side of the road, the cops turned their lights off and took off down the road...

I was left there wondering where the hell i was and what the hell just happened lol. Ive decided i dont like cannington lol.

Moral of the story: Dont buy TomTom navigation systems lol

Really? ive used most sat nav's and found the TOMTOM's to be the best ones :) clear with where your going and they dont get lost themselves unlike most others, i always turn off the volume and just read the map though because the voice can sometimes confuse haha

Ive got a TomTom ONEXL and it totally gets lost with itself lol. Starts tripping out and doesnt know where you are, thinks youre driving through a paddock. I was going along a bridge once and it told me to turn right... How about no lol. I never have the volume up, disrupts the music

yeah thats dodgy ay. unless its daylight or in a well populated area i wldnt pull over for it.

supposedly your well within your rights to let them know you have acknoledged their presence and then pull over at the next servo.

Id happily go to court and fight that rather than be hit over the head and my car stolen :)

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
