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 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.

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.

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.

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      Blue slip

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.

      Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.

      Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
