Hi Guys,

Spotted a Yellow R34 on victoria rd this arvo a cop was in the drivers seat and another was outside the car talkin to someone. If this was a cop car we all better be careful it had a big powerplay sticker on the back of it.

Now this could have been someone elses car but what was the cop doing in the drivers seat?

Not Sure so anyways beware unless anyone can clarify....... :ghost:

Cop was probably checking it out...

There are quite a few car enthusiast cops around... Not all of them are dickwads like some people on here would have you believe :P

Haha,

I dont think all of them are i have met a few nice ones over the years.

Its just most of the young highway patrol that are the arseholes.

Hopefully it wasnt a cop car with powerplay imports sticker on it thats all

Even though most of us wouldnt try and run a 34 well i wouldnt bother anyways.

No point not on the street anyways ;)

lol ... Are there prices that bad??

Hell yeah! Try $50-60k for an R34 GTT, and >$100 for a GTR. Haven't seen many GTR's there lately but they seem to sell pretty quick. You know what they say about a fool and his money.

I got pulled over for an RBT by a cop who had just bought a Twin Turbo Soarer, had a deopist on an RA20 Celica with a 1JZGTE in it and had a Datsun 1200 ute with a 13B Turbo that runs 11's. He quite liked RONIN and knew alot about MR2's

well IMO you cant expect to get a great quality car at the lowest price. I bought my car there, paid above market, and have an above market quality car. Very happy with the price and service

And I bought my 99 r34 GT-t from there for much less than that too. Great condition and good service.

To me it's time v money thing. I don't have time to work on my cars anymore so I work hard to get the money to buy a better one from a place that will look after me if I have any issues.

hehe, adrian...

yeah that yellow gtt has been there for a while now. i always see it along victoria road. model 6 white spoke wheels? yellow? different skirts and wing though to mine i think but nearly there!

i agree with most here, if the $ value didnt match the quality of the product im sure the business wouldn't survive?

in any case, 99% of the time money doesn't lie :)

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
