If You Speed, We'll Catch You !


Recommended Posts

he admits to being distracted, tired, fatigued, unaware of his surroundings, etc, but doesnt seem to see the idiocy in being fined for speed instead. any of those things could have killed him if he was doing 60km/h

Unlikely. If being distracted, tired, fatigued or unaware of your surroundings ever killed a single person, the police would crack down on it to remove the killers off the roads. It's blatantly obvious that only speed kills since so many officer's hours are spent enforcing it plus all the cameras. Coming a distant second is drink driving.

Distraction, tiredness, fatigue and unawareness has never killed a single person in Australia. It certainly has in countries that comply with the laws of physics and dont pay Monash to do crash studies, but nobody in Australia has ever been harmed by not speeding. It's physically impossible to crash if you're not speeding, you couldn't crash even if you tried.

LOL very good! So true.

I can't believe this twit gives off some bullshit claiming how lucky he was not to have died doing what he did...just to continue supporting the obvious bullshit that is the anti-speeding campaign. And then stupidly admits to driving fatigued etc., basically saying he ignored every TAC campaign that's ever been put on TV and not just the speeding one. I'd sooner he have just admitted he was a hypocrite and that the system exists for revenue and revenue alone.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
