I think Australia, or Victoria at least have travelled too deep into the nanny idea of safety, which is effective in revenue. Most probably they will just continue to tighten the reins.

Lucky I just quit my job where I'm driving 24,000kms a year and now I'm taking the train. oo-right! No tickets for mwah :O

Gahhhh this shit makes me rage, they do nothing to slow down drivers. Just money making machines, A cop car in full view with full police paintjob would be more effective in slowing people down than some speed camera.

watched the video, lmao at 'double skinned lexan windows... for the safety of the operator". im tipping they'll cop a fair workout.

im thinking about making a few signs saying 'filthy bastard speed camera ahead' and popping them on the side of the road when i see the filthy bastard things, to let other people know. i'll keep them in my ute, so they'll always be handy.

i can understand both sides..

as for safety - there is none.

purely revenue - and they always, ALWAYS claim they aint after revenue but safer roads.. lol

but on the other hand - never lost a point in all my years so its not hard to follow the *pathetic* laws.

Whats the big deal, they are clearly signed, if you get fined, its your own fault.

the sign is in past tense. meaning that they are placed AFTER you've passed the camera. also they are using IR flashes now? wtf atleast you used to be sensible for the rest of the week/day/km once you saw the flas and knew you'd been done. not even that "saftey" aspect now

Think he is trying to say that if you don't speed you have nothing to worry about. Want to make them poor f**kers and not make money of us? Don't speed (or don't speed past cars parked on the side of the road :P ) lol

      Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts.

      Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild.

      If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.

      Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.

      Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
