TRUCKERS whose noisy rigs disturb the peace will be snapped by new noise cameras and risk having their registrations suspended.

The Victorian Government has announced the noise camera system to monitor heavy vehicles in a bid to reduce excessive truck noise on the state's roads.

Yer you're right won't be long before they're used for excessive exhaust noise of all kinds.

Good to see they're getting trucks...I've had a few smart asses use engine brakes on me when im driving along the tunnels with my windows down.

And Harley's..

They can clutch in too...

Harley's sound f**ken sick, and I am pro-loud pipes on bikes, and I think that LAMS bikes should be allowed a loud pipe, who cares if it gives them one HP, if a noob rider is going to do something stupid, Better we are more aware of it, yes we should see them anyway, but better to hear them aswell IMO. Seems to be an increasing trend with new riders popping out from sidestreets not giving way, or sitting in blindspots. :)

Should move to darwin.

basicly like melbourne was 10 years ago, altho 4 of the cops are down south so they love imports. but they dont bother you unless your stupid.

Yet I have had ZERO Police issues in Melbourne. I'll pass on Darwin.

This is gonna suck. The way things are going with noise laws and such, we're going to have to ride bicycles everywhere... and even then they'll try and find something to complain about and waste money on enforcing :P

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
