ok so i went to pick my car from the impound today and to my surprise the car was running. when the car was impounded before it went on the tow truck i put a 2000rpm limiter on the car through the handset removed the handset from the car unpluged the the microtech and x6 box and hid the wiring under the carpet also removed the battery isolaler switch and hid it in the boot. so my question was " how did you get the car runing" cops "we didnt touch it it came like this" at the end of the day what can i do. the cops are f**ked. but at lease they cleaned it

Man i totally agree! I had my car go to police impound years ago. Came back without a headunit. I had removed all other items so it was the only thing that was still in there.

Thats crazy they got your car running though!!! Complimentary free police tune maybe? :laugh:

"Cops" only do the paperwork and confiscate the car. It is towed by tow companies and stored by private contractors. They detail the stuff about he car before it gets taken away an thats the last they ever see of it. Hrdly their fault. You might want to take it up with other people.

Except for the cars that are held in the actual police impound lots...

I was just going off his location of Northen Beaches.

Yes country imounds are different.

yeah, NFI how Sydney impounds work...

Wollongong has 2 impounds that I know of (One for each LAC) and they're both full... So now they take them to the owners house park it on the front lawn and wheel clamp them... Public humiliation...

The impound in which my vehicle was held in the police impound located in enfield. Its also the same place where the cops fit out their cars with sirens, radios etc. VERY police controlled but they do have civilian workers aswell. Its on the same lot as a vehicle auction place. Pickles maybe. Cant remember. I'd imagine one of the civilian workers pinched my headunit. I just find it unbelievable that it can happen in a police impound. But they are above the law.

About as far as police control went was the managers looking after the vehicle fitouts. As stated. The towing and storage of the cars is purely private sector. Police were there from 9-5 and then it is anyones guess. It was never police property.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
