james, put ur car in ur mums name - wont be taken from u then

i know heaps of ppl that do this and the cops get pretty annoyed cos they cant take the car

unless its a 3rd repeat offence on that vehicle - then they can

sorry to tell you this kamikaze but in real fact the police can confiscate any car that is in your posetion at the time of the offence, (eg if your driving your mums, brothers, dads, cousins GT3 porsche for the night and get done doing hellies, your screwed, they will take your car and make you walk home,,, i seen it happen and know who it was and whos car it was at the time)...

just to conclude this story i had to wait 3 months for my car at wetherill park police impound.......

When you see two different police cars (i.e. Falcon & Commonbore) flying down the road with their lights flashing and the sirens on, they aren't always chasing the bad guys... sometimes they're chasing each other....

Bummer about getting caught, but it's a risk you face and you've obviously taken it and been stung before. At least you're accepting that you're about to get reamed :D

We all have a squirt now and then, but I try my best (and, er... mostly succeed) to save anything significant for the track. Even getting pinged at 20 over will lose you your licence for a month these days, it's pretty farked.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
