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.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
