How far over was he?

I got pulled over yesterday.. at 11.45am for a breath test, its so early in the morning, who's going to have alcohol in their blood?

And it was just down the road from where i live, now, who are they planning to catch if they're parked at such a secluded spot?

With saying that i have been pulled over for a breath test at 8:15am while i was on my way to work on a wedensday.

Charles, I've been through spaghetti junction twice where they've blocked off every direction before. Then people turn in to where Hungry Jacks is and there's cops waiting in there too to get the ones trying to avoid them haha.

Last night on Fitzsimmons Lane just near the apple peel, there was a booze bus and they were stopping everyone, not letting cars through.. just letting it back up so everyone had to get tested.

I was following behind a P plater in a VZ ute and Mercedes and as we got to the apple peel roundabout, they saw the flashing lights ahead. The ute pulled in to the bus stop at the Shell and the Mercedes did a u-turn.

I kept watching the mirrors and undercovers came out of the new carwash there and were on them in seconds.

Couldn't stop laughing haha.

There were plenty of cars already parked at the booze bus, shows how many stupid people there are around my area :D

As I was waiting to go after being tested, the car at the front of the queue was being questioned so I asked the cop how long they'd been set up there for since there were so many cars already caught. She told me 8pm so 6 hours already and they were going to be there until 4am.. long night standing there!

Does anyone know how these "new" speed detectors pinpoint which car is actually speeding when the cop is driving too?

If it's being used in a busy area like Knox and there's a bunch of cars driving, how can they be sure which one the radar picked up?

I'm from the same area and keep seeing unmarked and marked cop cars on reynolds road. Very easy to creep over 70kph there. I even saw an unmarked toyota kluger!

Yeah, they park in the U-turn lane and laser you.

Unmarked and marked, Commodores and Fords.

yerp, 6 months cancellation and $350. their getting tougher!

Its always been like that, all breath testers are data logged, if they go back to the bus/station and there was 3 readings over .05 but only 2 people booked they have to explain why the third was not booked.

i dont think ill eva drive my skyline down to melb lol from what you guys are saying we have it very easy down here.

Nah! I got picked up by a cop in Warnambool for doing a U-turn over double lines from a parked position at 12am - with not another car in sight (except for the cop car lurking in his hiding spot). Granted he did make a nice point about me being "not from around here", so he might've treated a local such as yourself with a bit more discretion lol.

Same here. I'm keeping my car in good old WA. I only remember seeing about 1 or 2 cop cars last month...

Seen heaps of booze busses near me last couple of weeks.

Also random style setups (3-4 divvy vans) around 10am and only being setup for an hour or two if that.

Always getting the few here/there.

Usually people after a big night that don't think they are over, but are, is what i would imagine they would get the most of.

I know a few people that have been done the next day unsuspectingly after a big night.

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
