I was copied in to an e-mail...changes to the redlight cameras. I always thought they extrapolated the speed based on sequential photos and distance travelled but for what it's worth here it is...

These are the new fixed red light / speed camera locations for Perth.

"LOCATION:

CANNING HWY/RISELEY STREET APPLECROSS

WANNEROO RD/BEACH ROAD BALGA

BEACH RD/MIRRABOOKA AVENUE BALGA

ALBANY HWY/LEACH HWAY OFF RAMP BENTLEY

STIRLING HWY/ERIC STREET COTTESLOE

MORLEY DVE/ALEXANDER DVE DIANELLA

ROE HWY/KALAMUNDA ROAD HIGH WYCOMBE

WINTERFOLD RD/STOCK ROAD HILTON

HEPBURN AVE/MARMION AVENUE PADBURY

CANNING HWY/DOUGLAS AVE SOUTH PERTH

G.E.H./SHEPPERTON RD VICTORIA PARK

LEACH HWY/BUNGAREE RD WILSON

These are the up-coming locations for the new red light/speed cameras. If you speed through the intersection you will get done for speeding.

They will all be in action from June/July. .

There is one already active in front of the bell tower on Riverside Drive in the City. "

No I wasnt shouting thats how the e-mail came lol

Does anybody know how these redlight cameras work? For example I go through a orange light and it turns red half way through, At what point will Camera go off? 1Sec after red? Any car less than halfway through?

I doubt they have changed the way the redlight cameras go off, if you cross the line while the light is RED, you get done.

I feel sorry for whoever slams up the back of me when I grab the anchors to stop for a late amber light instead of squeezing the gas a bit.

No, these new redlight camera's Operate as normal but they will also snap you if you are speeding through the intersection when its amber, dont speed up to beat an amber and you'll be right.

There's not a way to fight it, if you get done is there?

" I had to speed up cause there was no room to stop/ there were people close behind me"?

Uhh I doubt it, it's there fault that they hit you anyway :) There's no need for you to speed up when the light is amber anyway, just take it at normal speed or brake and wait.

The law is the law but unfortunately, there are tonnes of plonker-f**khead drivers all over the place that'll sit up your arse to make it through an amber light only to be thwarted by you and your desire to keep your licence. As such, your car is going to literally get arse-raped.

That's the price we all have to pay. My advice - GET INSURANCE. Or move to the country where they're lucky to have one set of lights.

Shouldn't have any drama's in any zone...in 100kmph zones, there are pre-amber warnings 100 metres ahead, and we all know the rules...if you're too close to a car to stop as quickly or quicker than that car, you're too close.

I didn't think there were 100kmh speed limits through lights?

I'll be sure to memories those locations :D

I got rear-ended by a van because I was braking for the amber instead of trying my luck to run a red. :(

:rofl:

Exactly, I got full comp insurance & my car is getting fixed for free at the moment, but still a pain in the a** to go through the whole process again, now I'm reduced to driving around in a grandpa spec Camry :bunny:

Tonkin highway? Although the speed limit goes down from 100km/h to 80km/h at each traffic light intersection.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

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

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
