Hay all...

Just pissing around with my iPhone and I came across an App called Trapster... ...Did a search for it on the Forums and seems no one has talked about it...

Their web sight is Trapster... ...Seems to be very community driven...

Anyone on here using it???...

Been using it for a long time now :D

Great app, it pushes notifications of recent traps to you.

A bit draining on the battery though to have it on constantly while driving though so it's hard to report traps on the spot. I just wait til I get to my destination and then report it online.

My old man uses it all the time cause he has an iphone now... It works good I guess if people report what they see. Anyways was driving on the south coast of NSW and my old man tells me there is a police car along a road we were driving, and yep sure enough there was a green VE Commodore police car sitting behind some bushes. Lucky I was doing the speed limit cause it was a verrrrry straight road and around double demerits...

When I first got the app, I thought it'd be useless because no one would be reporting stuff.

Found out that there are a lot of people using it and quite a few people in my area are regular users because all of the traps have been reported by the same reliable sources :P

It's good to have a quick check of the "Recent Traps" list before you head out on a drive. It gave me a heads up once that I would be going through a booze bus, but I had no choice but to go that way haha.

so is this an app that you just read before u go out? or do u keep it on while driving and it beeps when ur need a camera? pls explain?

You can do both. The web site is where all the work is done. The app on your phone is a portal to the web site. But it also streamlines reporting back to the site.

As you're driving it displays google maps (on iPhone at least) and will beep and point out where a cop is. If it's a green warning, it means it's just been reported and if you see a cop there too you give it a thumbs up, and it goes yellow. If it's yellow and you see a cop you give it a thumbs up and it goes red and means that at least three people have seen and reported that a cop is there.

If you don't see a cop there you give it a thumbs down and after a while if enough people do that then it will be removed.

It keeps the maps and app live.

I have my iPhone mounted in a TomTom cradle so it's clear to see and quick to report or thumb.

The app is free to download and use, apart from your phone data costs.

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
