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.

:banana:

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?

thanks for the info

quite annoying to see WA traffic lights copping speed cameras too now just like in VIC, every 2nd traffic light is a speed camera over there..

it was bound to happen though im actually suprised it took this long.. but now that it has.. not so happy haha

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.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
