Nice to see them getting out there in the media but i think its quite unnecessary to have cops hanging around on every cruise takes away any fun and by fun i don't mean burnouts and drag races, i mean just knowing that your not being watched every second of the way, it makes you concentrate about not making mistakes in fear of getting caught by cops instead of enjoying yourself. I definitely think that Tom Painter stated some good facts and police should ease up and target individuals instead of cars makes.

I tend to think a random cop passing by who saw a gaggle of skylines would be far more tempted to infiltrate the group and pull over a car than a "police escort". Said escort is just going to stay with the group because they know what the destination is. If anyone acts like a cock they will take notes and only put the party lights on if you're doing something dangerous. If you have been misbehaving expect to be in the shit at the next stop, though.

I see absolutely no problem with a police escort on an organised cruise. Are you demonstrating responsible driving or not? There's no need to tread on eggshells if you're doing the right thing - just drive normally. If normal for you is being a dickhead (not saying it is, just IF) - that's when you have cause for concern in which case you're probably not welcome on a cruise where good behaviour is requested anyway.

Don't tell me that these guys spend big bucks on souped up, fast cars, just to drive around below the speed limit. Public roads are for safe use of the public for getting from A to B. If you want to speed, pay to do it on a race track. Get these cars off the roads, and we'll save hundreds of lives.

Does she not realise how much power FPVs or HSVs have?? Or many, many, many, other cars she sees on the road every day straight from the factory?? But no, just get the Skylines, Rex's etc off the road and we'll save hundreds of lives apparently cos we're only ones capable of going fast :rofl:

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
