wish i could get that in a bumper sticker

This can be arranged....

I had an older HWY patrol cop pull me over once, surprisingly was one of the nicer cops i've come across, gave the usual wrap and said 'these cars are pretty quick hey'

couldn't help but smile at that.

I was driving to work lazily last sunday afternoon.

Shortly after witnessing a policeman dive out from behind a car and radar the Holden Astra in front of me, a group of what I can only describe as bumpkins driving a massively lifted hilux with "RM Williams" stickers all over it and various other "country" paraphernalia drove up beside me and said "top bloke".

following this,

As they were diverting to another lane the same guy started to yell "hey wanke..." but before he could finish his sentence, I leaned oppressively out my window whilst maintaining my speed of 60km along Roma street here in Brisbane (Read: one of the busiest in queensland) and proceeded to hail them.

I Screamed "Go suck a f**king dick top bloke" so loudly they heard me probably 400m away, the guy looked stunned, pulled his head back in his window and they drove off.

I'm dedicating this to you, the men of fire and steel of SAU !

and Yes Terry, Definitely Spartacus :P

lol

you do get those on occasion

hows this for cliche..

Im out back of bumf*k idaho today and mate asks me to drive him down to this caravan park to do something he had to do. So i roll down there, cruise into this park where there's clapped out falcadores everywhere ,with all the yokels looking at me ,no sure if it was disgust,envy or whats that doin here ,when this guy comes out to have a look at my car..

"awww, shes a skoiliner, awww, and its a manual noice, is it a turbo?"..

I thought of this thread and somehow managed to contain my laughter :whistling:

sounds like some inbreading going on in that place.

"Most highway patrol officers appreciate a nice V8. If you get pulled over in one of those, it's more likely to be because they want to have a closer look at it," he says

Such disappointing comments...

What an absolute crock of shit, Stephen Lacey you are a useless human being.

I've been pulled over in an import before, where a cops sisters husbands motherinlaw aka his mother simply had a 32 gtr previously and simply wanted to check it out.

Then again a mates mates mates mates friends of his sisters uncles brother's v8 was pulled over by a copper because he didnt like V8's.

Do yourself a favour and have read of the comments, they are hilarious. So much hate, mostly for the toyota camry. After reading all these comments no wonder our road system is so screwed!

I enjoyed them too, whenever I end up behind a Camry at the front of a set of lights my god do they take off slow, the semi in the left lane next to them hit 60km/h before the Camry did.

I like it when the bogans know their place, I was driving along sunnyholt road & a p plater VZ passenger rolled down his window & said "so ya reckon this is faster than a commodore mate? Still a P.O.S"

I couldn't stop laughing I gave him a thumbs up :laugh:

Only been pulled over once in Sydney in 9months. Was pulled over on my first day for a drug check. After that....nothing.

In Brisbane I got pulled over about once per month. Simply because there is so much more breath testing and "random" car checks. Never got defected though, but got the height measured a few times, told to lift the bonnet, "is this turbo", "is this stock", etc etc.

So I think I'm saying that cops in Brisbane will pull you over MUCH more than in Sydney if the past 9 months are anything to go by.

    • 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.
