A motorist was caught doing 110km/h in a school zone in Sydney's west this morning, police say.

The 25-year-old's driver's licence was suspended on the spot after the incident on The Horsley Drive at Smithfield.

Police say they heard an engine accelerate behind them in the 40km/h school zone and saw a Nissan Skyline travelling west.

A speed check with LIDAR recorded 110km/h, they allege.

The officers followed the car and saw it parked in a nearby car park, where the driver, from Villawood, was issued with a notice to attend Fairfield Local Court on September 19.

too right slim.

I suppose younger drivers in hotted up cars are easier to get pissed off at as a community. (it would seem they have more blatent disregard for laws)

but when it comes down to it, these are equally stupid situations/people.

    • I thought I'd heard rumor of someone that was developing a 6 speed kit to convert the 5 speed box. But maybe I was thinking of the PPG 6 speed sequential? That's about half the price of a car...  
    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?
