dont get it :S

yeah... definately right about that...

not worth the risk, just putting it out there... i've noticed they've put some speed cameras up on EAST link, under a little bridge right near WELLINGTON road both inbound and outbound... sneaky...

Parking tickets are terrible too... copped a $117 fine on the weekend at 11pm... dont park in loading zones... hahaha

i sometimes find myself creeping of the speed limit. these damn stagea's are just so smooth, dont even notice :)

Know the feeling m8!!!!

& yeah it's a gamble to get one(radar dect) ,& where u r located personally NO,NO,NO, but thats my opinion,get a speed alert fitted instead maybe,& get to the track on a regular basis, it helps.

I miss the "protection"...that thing was seriously good

I was looking at one on ebay... $140

seems like a good investment... until you get caught + the $3000... that would hurt the hip pocket... i wonder if they would cancel your licence..

This is a pretty sensitive topic so I cant say much, but basically my recommendation is if you dont know what your doing dont get one. Me an my cousin have both been using RD's for awhile now, first time using one in a place sooooo illegal, there are products I DO recommend but for 140 your not going to get ANYTHING good especially since they will be detected by the cops and you'll get raped.

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.

      Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".

      I removed the head expecting to find broken and bent valves, but instead found number 1 at TDC and cylinder 2 at the top of its cylinder stroke as well, thought that was weird and proceeded to push cylinder 2 back down until it either bottomed out on its other piston half or the conrod either way we found the issue kind of,  now to remove the engine and see how the block looks, hopefully its just the top off a piston.

      Rob's S Chassis track cars. Now with more s15 and less 180sx

      A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
