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.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
