Cops are definitely out in force lately. Got stalked by a divvy van on saturday night on the way home. Tailed me, checked my details in their car then turned around and sped off. Might be best for anyone with an exceptionally attention drawing vehicle to drive it at a minimum until after xmas/new years. At nights at least anyway.

To cast some lures... and to finally get a bite from something thats not from a farm.

You know in the 4 years I went to Swinburne I never once visited that damn lake. Drove past it every weekday and could see it from the Uni but never stopped past :D

Well, some bloke caught a 45cm trout there, and i missed a fish, so nothing much to shout home about. But its a really nice chill place. Good to visit when stressed or nothing better to do.

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?

Just saw the ad on TV, and it sounds like that device is only when the cop is stationary and can point the sniper-like crosshairs at a single vehicle out of a mass of cars (rather than the usual shotgun approach using the old radar guns, which were unreliable in a mass of cars).

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.

You boys ain't from 'round these parts, are ya? :blink: Love it

got defected a week back in Ivanhoe .for car being too low.then the coper poped the bonnet hehe.

1:Boost Control

2:POD

3:FMIC

well the best part was didnt get no fine,not even a road worthy just had to take the pod and the

boost controller out and take it to vicroads,thank god i got coilovers so its gona stay stock till next year i guess

and it looks like a 4 wheel drive now :P my fist fits between the tyre and the guard.

My station is pretty serious about this operation as we have treffic cars running all next week and I am on some operation Road BLock on Next weekend. Must be Booze Buses and more, I surely will be tasked to give out lots of NOU's, EPA and fines because end of the day its a stats game.

dammmmmmmmmm spewing :ninja: , when you get an EPA what do you have to do? put everything back to stock :ninja: ?

Not necessarily stock, but roadworthy condition. For example, the exhaust can be aftermarket as long as it is below the maximum DB.

Whats an NOU?

I know you may not want to tell eveyone but what area do you work in, as in country vic or N E W or S subrbs, i dont mean what station, will understand if you dont want that information known.

NOU is Notice of Unroadworthy better known as Canary. I work in Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne.

Thanks, i live in SE but the skyline is off the road now anyway, wont be back on for over 12 months.

Also how strict are you when you pull over some one driving on an unreg permit, got one at the moment on my daily whilst i get it reg'd but since i do arvo shift a few times i have taken it to get stuff done before work and then driven it to work, problem is i dont finish till around midnight and i know that you are only allowed to drive it between 7am and 7pm.

I got done with an unreg permit.

I had booked in to the mechanics to drop it in during my lunch break at work and arranged my workmate to come with me and take me back to work after I dropped it in.

But in the morning on my way to work I got pulled over and they didn't want to hear a word of my explanation.

Missing work in the morning was not an option because it was a critical period in our schedule.

Had to cop the $567 unregistered vehicle fine on the chin.

    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools. Buy Genuine Nissan 48700JF00D (48700-JF00D) Lock Set-Steering. Prices, fast shipping, photos, weight - Amayama
    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
