What's wrong with living with my mummy and driving her car? lol

I'm only 20 and still studying, I'm not gonna fork out everything I got just to say "I've moved out of home", just to be cool like you :bunny:

Did anyone see Adam Pettett in the knox paper today? They are testing a 'Stalker' radar system on knox tmu cars. The radar is mounted on the side of the car and can report speeds of cars in front of the police vehicle. Pretty cool stuff.

i bet he creamed himself when they equipped him with that

I thought they already had that technology on police cars through the front grill?

I have a feeling Pettett is more concerned with canaries than speeding fines :bunny:

KNOX police have a new weapon to keep speeding motorists in check, but chances are you won't see them coming.

My ass! That thing sticks out like dog balls...if you can't see that on an unmarked car you deserve to get nabbed. It looks like a rocket launcher.

Terrible technology though...just another variable for error IMO...it's bad enough the stationary radars aren't calibrated very well let alone these moving ones which will have to detect their own speed as well as that of the car they are "stalking".

Don't see how it's 'new'

I got done by a moving, on coming, un marked car without a bazooka sticking out the window. It took all of about 1 second of being in sight of him for him to have my speed detected, lights on and pulling a U-turn.

Melton TMU has had them for a while (from what I heard first in VIC to get them), they have a range of 1 KM and detect speed of cars travelling away from or towards to the police car that the camera is mounted on while the police car is both stationary and moving.

lol same... was a ford territory, and he got me at 134 in a 100 zone (talked him down to 124 tho) in pitch black conditions :bunny:

they have been around for years, the first was mounted the same as that one is then they started to put them on the dash next to the drivers side A pillar, i got done by one about 3 years ago.

it would defeat the purpose of on unmarked cop car, i have good enough eyes for antennas, would make it easier with those. also, how is that thing roadworthy? civilian cars can't have objects sticking out the side of them. seems unsafe to me. darn double standards.

Don't see how it's 'new'

yeah, i seem to remember seeing one of these when it was hanging off the side of Brand New VK commodore pursuit car. I don't think the cops have driven them for a few years now.

i got done in country VIC back in 1995 or 1996 by an oncoming cop driving towards me, the radar was out the side of the car.

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
