Don't sell your car because of that incident.

In reality your car is comparable to any camry out there. If the popo are going to pick on you for your car they have some serious issues.

Yet you got other P platers in bog stock commondoors, fjord falcons, V6 magnas and aurions pushing much more power....

You don't seem to be running a kebab spec vehicle either....

There is nothing illegal about it by the sounds of things.

I'd probably want to change the plate numbers to stock plates or something not too "aggressive" - un-fortunately most of society (ACA and TT veiwers) out there would deem your number plates "aggressive".

Most people who know nothing about skylines have no idea how big the difference is between a stock R34 GT to a GTR.

I have a theory - once people (other drivers) see the 4 stove tops glow - it brings out the worst in them. You get young parents and people in their 40s wanting to drag you in what ever vechicle they have... Maybe because they have never had the chance to drive a skyline/GTR or it reminds them of their lost/wasted youth or maybe the "Skyline/GTR" name represents something that is "un-beatable/the best" so people that have small man syndrome get really p*ssed of when driving around in their Kluger or CX7 with their 2.5 kids in the back :(

Ok guys, just to update. I got my infringement in the mail.

A few things to note;

-He didn't spell my surname correctly.

-The speed limit is still wrong on the street.

-Alleged speed: 100 Detected speed: 100 (notice no use of a radar or device to detect speed or there would be 3/3% speed reduction).

-No information about the offence.

Getting the lawyer on the phone tonight. Wish me luck =]

Same thing pretty much happened to me last year, resulted in my car being impounded and heading off to court in 2 weeks, although likely to get shafted as magically "four" officers all saw "wheelspin, a street race," and various other things. They blew not doing a hookturn totally out of proportion pretty much just because they can. These hoon laws are rubbish.

I would fight it as it is total injustice however it is going to cost me $1600 for a lawyer if I plead guilty, just don't have the money to waste as a uni student to fight it so really they'll get away with it and do it to some other kid, where they'll just do the same as me and it'll just keep happening.

Chin up mate, i am remaining hopeful that the judge will come to a sensible decision and not just simply take the side of an officer purely going off by word.

If i can win this case then i will prove even p platers stand a chance at defending themselves if they are targeted by cops, not just skyline drivers - when they have done nothing wrong.

  • 8 months later...

Rooks rd is a 50 zone.. If you want to avoid police stay out of rooks rd.. They have an unmarked police station just over the train tracks toward whitehorse rd. I think it's just offices and a place to store cop cars.

Can you pm me the officers name as I had a very similar attitude/incident happen to me in the same location.

they have some massive breathos and sometimes defects right out the front of nunawading... as they have that service rd on maroondah highway, so its an ideal spot

I too have been stopped multiple times down rooks rd and station st there..... I think some ppl go there at night and be stupid due to the wide roads and the factories around..

Theres one set of factories down a street around there, that is basically set around a square and very wide road... so I can see why people would be tempted.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
