pretty much. i think the only reason i got away with only the excess speed charge (and not manner dangerous, speed dangerous, court appearances and whatever the f**k else they thought to throw at me) is because they cant 100% prove i was driving, and i rocked up for an interview or whatever as soon as i possibly could. if i hadve waited for a summons, i probably wouldve been raped.

Yep same. I was done by a camera, got a knock on the door a few weeks later, went down to the shop for a interview but they had about 8 pics of my car but couldn't see who was driving due to the glare on the windscreen from the angle of the car. They could only guess I was driving since I was the owner of the car. But I just co-operated with them which made their job easier, so they let me off much 'easier'.

It's funny actually seeing the picture quality that these radars take... very poor quality. Everything was pixelated to all shit. You could barely even make out my number plate.

I would love to see someone doing a powerskid past a speed camera and getting caught. Be mad repz on ns

prob why they dont give photos anymore, cause then you'd see how dodgy it is.

these days you gota pay fine before seeing the pic aswell which is bs.

not quite.

you can request the proof and then pay the fine. if you get the photo and you can contest it, then you elect to be prosecuted

-D

you still have to pay your fine on its due date wether you get the pic or not, if you dont pay you get slugged with late fee. last 1 i got i requested the pic and it never arrived :P

if you gota fork out that kinda dollars they could atleast get you a funky action shot for your hard earned money :(

you mean like this? Dohnuts.jpg

yeah your plates are hard to see, could be DONMAR, DONMAN etc. but i guess they go through all possible combinations until vehicle model on the reg system matches the pictured vehicle.

category 1 (< 15km/h) = 1 point

category 2 (15 - 29 km/h) = 3 points*

category 3 (30 - 44 km/h) = 4 points

category 4 (> 45km/h) = 6 points (and a $564 fine + $30 levy, lol)

*same as failure to stop at a red light.

ive now been fined for everything but a cat 3. not a great record.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
