Over 40 Red Light Cams have already been switched to Double-Task as Speed Cams as well as Red Light Cams.

Over the next couple of years, 100s of the old wet film type are in the process of Double-Tasking ^^^

You can check the RTA Website for locations of those that have been changed over in preparation for "Operation Safe Arrival" that started today. The Fixed-wing aircraft for speed-spotting along the Hume at Marulan has also just begun operating.

rta nsw > myRTA > Centre For Road Safety > Speeding > Safety Cameras

So in essence, some of those 'old' cameras that only used to check if you went thru a red light too late can also check your speed & then too late; you see a flash. Be warned! :D

DO NOT GUN IT THRU THE ORANGE!!!!!!!!!!!

I have seen the camera on Pennant Hills/Beecroft Rd flash randomly a couple of times now, I guessed that it might do speed now.

I'm pretty sure this system is already in place in the ACT :D

yeah ive noticed that one aswell going off randomly, i have noticed they have upgraded to a new camera style and it keeps on going off, but i didnt see any signs and im pretty sure (unless the laws have changed) speed cameras need to have 3 signs for fixed, one sign for a set up speed camera and no signs for moving speed cameras like radar ect...

But they tend to keep tinkering with it everytime i'm there so i'm not sure if its operational there anyway.... YET

you clearly havent read the law

they dont need any signs

the red light + speed cameras only have one sign " safety camera ahead"

hehe yes i noticed those too

also everyone drops speed right down now before lights so if limit is 70kmh pple are doing 55-60kmh

...which annoys me even more! If they stuck to around the speed limit the whole time (where-ever possible), instead of slowing down and speeding up constantly, they'd probably save fuel and reduce their travel times.

I guess we're gonna have to stop at red lights and do the speed limit then....

unless someone can come up with a better alternative..........

i'll get the popcorn.....

and get overtaken by (courier) pushbikes...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.

      Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...

      Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
