Ummmmmmm did anyone seee on TV about the latest stats the police released?

it goes something like this:

Of all the high speed police chases in Australia?or NSW forgot..

about 70% ended up in crashes

20% resulted in the death or someone else apart from the driver?

and 10% i think was the death of the driveR?

they aint exactly..but vaguely it went somethin like that..

-_-; so i dun think that itz a good idea to out run a cop.

Once i got done speeding and i pulled over and had a go at the cop..i told him that me doing 80 in a 60 was more safe than him doing 60 in a 60 in his bucket of bolts...he agreed with me and said"after we signalled to pull you up i turned to the other officer in the car and said Fark if he decides to go we are gonna have to get the chopper out to catch him in that...we dont have a hope!"

A mate of mine is a cop and he catches people in faster cars all the time because he is a better driver.  

True story... guy in an NSX was caught by a Rodeo paddy wagon :P

You would have to hang your head in shame...the punk driving the NSX didnt allow for the police going bush over median strips ect ect to catch him :Oops:

99% of the time if the police want to catch they will, if you get lucky and they couldnt be bothered then you may get away with it.

If you run, you'd better hope they didn't catch your plates - happened to one P-plating motorcyclist heading around the mountains last year. They flashed, he took off at speeds somewhere around 180+ I think it was..but they had his plates and just got him when he got home..silly.

Incidentally, I read in the Herald a couple of weeks ago that in NSW there's nothing they can really get you with except for Neg Driving - it doesn't come under failing to obey an officer, or resist arrest. All they can peg you with is the fine + 3 points.

They were talking about changing it though, in light of those crashes in hi-speed chases recently.

Lemme see...

GTR in Sydney in the early hours of the morning, running from police. I bet you anything he had a mate hanging around either in another Skyline or WRX. It's just the way of things in Sydney and the reason why Skyline's aren't too popular with the constabulary.

Sad but true.

hey i saw the the r34 gtr on sunday nite that thing was crazieee  

2 asian guys had euro number plates with volks  

we had mad fun on parra rd arund 2-3am he was pretty craziee running my mates s15 chopping him obviously.........

lookeed crazy man it was a r34gtr v-spec 2 young guys man max 25 highlight of my long weekend

was it white if so the wheels are nismo's, highlighted my weekend also.

couldnt of they just gotton the plate and chased up the driver in a couple of hours?? or calling in some other cops around the area..dont think he would of gotton away so easy.
Don't  you think a white R34 GTR would be pretty easy to find seeing as they are not real common.

Sure, it might not be hard to find a white R34 GTR by looking it up or whatever, but really, the cops have no proof because they won't didn't get the plates.

couldnt of they just gotton the plate and chased up the driver in a couple of hours?? or calling in some other cops around the area..dont think he would of gotton away so easy.

u would always have another place to store your car, so i doubt he would have driven home after running from the cops. Its not like the cops can see his car a week later on the street and book him because unless they catch you running on that occasion they cant do anything

Well what are you looking at if they do catch you? Fine or time or what? I mean speeding is just a ticket, running for the cops is a whole new deal I'd imagine. I think it's stupid that in order to get out of one crime you commit a way bigger crime, so that when you do get caught you really get the book thrown at you.

They would book you for everything you do wrong during the pursuit.

- Neg driving

- Dangerous driving

- Speeding

- Failure to indicate

- Falure to stop at stop sign

- Red light offences

on top of that they stick you with

- Evasion

- Resisting arrest

Jabtronic: how do you figure that the police wouldnt get the plates? As the story was told the police were behind the GTR, and considering number plates are reflective and it was at night, im pretty sure the police would have the cars plates. Wether they are legitimate or stolen plates however is another story.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
