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.

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.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      On 12th June, the mechanic could not figure out what the issue was, but the car seems to be flooding with fuel. He was suspecting the tune, thus referred me to a tuner. Although the tuner is not familiar with Nistune, last Monday (30th June), he came over to try and re-map it. Despite the tuner trying to completely stop fuel, it kept sounding like it was pushing fuel. Tuner ended up suspecting either the ECU or Injectors. I do not believe the ECU or Nistune is the issue, as the Nistune software reads and communicates properly. Today, I removed the (new) injectors to see if they are clogged or leaking. Surprisingly enough, after those 3 days of driving, injectors 2 and 3 look very blocked. You can see the difference in the picture. I blew a bit on 3, that is why it doesn't look as clogged as 2. I am still unsure if this is what is causing the no start issue, but I am now feeling that I may have bought the injectors and Nistune without the need to do so, as the problem seems to be coming from somewhere else.

      R34 GTR Front Diffuser/Guard Liner questions.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Hello everyone. I've recently started the research into R34 GTR front bits and running into eye watering prices. On the plus site it looks like some places make 'replacement' fender liners for these cars. At eye-watering-but-less than stock prices. I also noticed there's plenty of diffuser options available too. What I would like to know is if my following assumptions are correct. 1) The OEM guard liners are actually only 'half' the liner. They go together with the OEM brake vents which are a separate item which looks to be quite a large 'panel' that is part of the liner. The GTR bumper has bolt holes along the front. I assume the ones in the vent correspond to the ones the OEM liner does not have (circled?)   2) The V-Spec front diffuser supplants the brake ducts in the above item. I am assuming these still work with the guard liners as there's no alternate part that I'm aware of. I don't see how they go together, so I'm making the assumption that they have to, somehow. I know the center splash guard is different on the V-Spec (and is the price of the damn diffuser alone). How does the liner interact with this? 3) There's alternate front diffusers that do away with it all. Annoyingly, a lot of the clones and CF different ones... have no brake ducts on them. I like the idea of them though. My brakes get hot on the track. These alternate diffusers are a lot cheaper than plastic splash guards. I'm assuming you don't have to/aren't supposed to remove guard liners to run a diffuser. I suspect that quite a few people actually do not run the guard liner because with a front undertray you're getting a lot of 'splash' guarding anyway, and most people remove liners given they're probably running a pretty aggressive setup with a diffuser at the front. It would also be nice to know if anyone has ever run the 'reproduction' guard liners and know whether the fitment is OEM quality or "OEM Quality". Example: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/356254671561 https://carbonetics.net/products/nissan-skyline-r34-gtr-plastic-front-wheel-arch-set Is this knowledge still around?
