only been pulled over twice, was on green p's on both occasions and caught speeding by unmarked cars (both around 8-9pm on main roads with no traffic ahead, i might add).

after breath test/license/lap around the car, i was on my way.. another time they rocked up beside me in an unmarked car and said something like "keep it up and you wont have ya licence much longer" and off they went.

hype i think, the amount of bogan commodore drivers around here keep the police more than occupied i think.

Straight from the cops mouth last week, "we have been told to specifically pull modified skylines over an take them off the road"

Every car i have owned basically has been defected, even standard. i have been to regency without changing 1 thing and passed !

I have been doing the speed limit driving in a strate line got pulled over for driving suspiciously and defected.

Its even better when you see them pull shit box 70 model cars over cos they been driving like a dick, rusted out clearly defectable only to fine them an not defect them.

Its really not even worth trying to drive an import anymore =/

Only ever got pulled over once in the 34R but every 2nd time I go out on the bike........regardless, they've always let me go

You must be respectfull to a cop regardless of who's in the right.

Bottom line is; if you are or look young, or if you drive a Skyline and drive like a dick, you will get pulled over.........not a matter of if, just a matter of when........what happens next is sometimes up to you.

I agree. I have owned my 34R for almost 3 years now, drive it everywhere as a daily and have never been pulled over because i drive normally on the street.

And lets say its a lot more modified than just cooler and exhaust.

I drive past the Port Adelaide Police Complex daily to and from work and live not far from the Henley station and I don't get a second look from them. Either because I'm old(er) or the car is fairly stock looking....?

A good mate of mine is a copper based around Norwood and he says he has had NO directive to target imports or any other particular group.

yet for some reason they tend to get more import drivers then wankers in commy's :happy:

cant agree here - there are less of us and the communication is better, due to this forum and others

most commie drivers they ping are moccassin wearing rednecks who dont have electricity, let alone internet

-D

I've just recently bought my 33 gts-t and haven't been pulled over which i found surprising as my car is bright orange and i've gone past probly about 20 cops the last couple of weeks as i work just behind the intersection of grand junction rd and addison rd so theres always cops about i've gotten a couple looks but they just dont seem interested which is weird because as i said my car is bright orange and i have P-plates up aswell, so in my opinion its just hype =)

I once got pulled because I was wearing my hat backwards...... no effing joke! Cop apologized to me after looking at my license and realizing I was in my 30's. His exact word to me were "I saw the backwards cap and assumed you were a P plater without your plates"

that is an epic L O L god dam cops :)

IMO, its mostly hype. Just don't drive like a dick.

Dohmar is correct on both points.

Think back, things only got REAL bad after the magill road accident.

Police sometimes sus them to see if its stolen. I cant think of 1 member here off the top of my head who got stopped, just to ensure it wasnt stolen, and thats all it was.

I was stopped by the cops cos they thought my stag was stolen but it turned out that the coper put the wrong rego number in

Hey Guys, this might not be the right place for this but.... I understand now that P platers cannot drive Turbos and as I have not yet got my p plates... (getting them on monday, due to me being lazy, god i wish i hadn't been) And despite these laws i want one anyway.... Just wanted to know how they are gonna realise that i got my licence before september 4?...

I would assume that it would be in the system that you recieved your license at a certain date, and simply ask you to rev it.

Then bam.

Well that's what i thought... Till I drove round on my L's.. got pulled up 5 times... ran my plates and let me go...

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
