think about it. I add 93 kilo to the weight of the car. Less than 10 percent.

The copper adds a minimum of 90 kg. What percentage do you think that is?

Call the car 1400 kg for the excercise. Its contact patch v weight still far outdoes that of the bike.

And i dont have to climb all over the bike to get it to change direction in a hurry. I simply move the wheel and sit there solid as a rock in a full bucket seat.

Still outdoes it by miles sure but I don't see this as much as a problem as you do obviously.

oh and meant to post this up too

Good video. I hate being wrong :D

I think we're missing the rather important point of: by the time anyone outruns anyone. He's already got your Make, Model, Color and Licence plate both in his mind, and on his camera :P

Indeed! twould be a very foolish thing to even contemplate.

but, as they say in the classics....There aint no fool like an old fool. :P

They would be better off on a 600 than a busa. Fat ass ugly things they are :P

The benifit of the bike is that it is MUCH easier to weave it through traffic than it is for the modified fully sick car that he is chasing.

It would be a pretty fair car that would outrun me on the cbr up a twisty hill or otherwise. I think the average bogan idiot in his VN V6 is going to have his ass handed to him by the busa when he tries to run....

that is the point with any police chase. unless it was at night, coming the other way and you can turn off your numberplate light before you pass them so they at least can't get your rego, there is no point trying to escape the police no matter what the situation is. the moment they have your rego details it's game over. all you then do is piss the cop off even more so that when they do finally catch up with you they make sure to glue pieces of broken glass to the long arm of the law before they fist you with it.

yeah,

in short there are no official unmarked Police motorcycles in Qld at all...

Also on a side note, comparing a Porsche 911 to a motorbike on a race track does not come close to a falcon or commodore vs a race bike on the roads...

There is no way a police car could catch a bike on a average suburban road if the bike wants to run... I'm not just talking about speed either...

Lane splitting, bike tracks, storm water drains, foot paths, shopping centre, malls there is a million ways for the bike to get away without using speed...

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
