have to remeber those ones. i reckon a lot of people will get done by them, just about every second person puts their foot down through amber lights

I don't think the guy in the link I posted just squeezed it on to get through the lights.. 70km/h over the limit.. that tops my official best of 55km/h over! :kiss:

Rear-ending will probably increase significantly.

Best be careful on bikes!

Good opportunity to do a stoppie.... and then get wiped out :P

just get the wheel up on a good enough angle so the camera cannot see your plate :rofl: Failing this just reach around stick your hand/foot over your plate or at least partially cover it.

Considering they are fixed it's not as bad as ones that can pop up anywhere to make revenue save lives...

Knowing where they are is more of a proven deterrent, it's just that the government won't accept & agree with that.

Riverside Drive where the Bell Tower is a fixed speeding camera. And theres 3 on leach hwy

They removed the red light camera on the beginning of hay street, so Im guessing there gonna put a fix speeding camera there

even before the camera there that would have to be one of the worst spots to let loose.

anyone know if they work in more than 1 direction? and what part of your car has to be over the line before the light goes red?

On a related topic, my dad just received a fine for speeding during the Easter Break time. Happened on our way to Kalgoorlie, apparently he was going 109km/h (90km/h) area, must be one of those times when he was over taking a multi-stage Semi, I didn't even know that the gutless Corolla could master enough grunt to push to 109km/h in that short period of time...

Dad is telling me to keep my mouth shut about this to mum, not because she cares much about the points (4) nor whole 'lower speed is safer thing' but because of the $150 fine... being the typical 'cheap ass Asian' she is gonna kill us both if she found out we effectively just 'wasted' $150. :)

& this makes me the 'safest' driver in the family for the reasoning of having no fines :thumbsup:

just curious

the speed camera is basically like a normal speed camera yeah? detects if your going too fast and flashes?

what are these ones i've heard about where they measure point to point?

like 1 set of lights and then the other set and then theyre like 'you travelled fast between there, SNAP'

or is that hocus pocus :blush:

hey guys, i know now you cant 'speed through amber lights' but at least you know where the cameras are.

Plus you shouldnt REALLY be speeding anyway, not THAT drastically :blush:

but i know everybody speeds now and then.

but yeah in the eastern states people know where the speed cameras are and now we know where a few are too.

Apparently they will be brought in, but with how they are described to work there's gotta be a few loopholes surely :blush:

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
