Mitsubishi Magna Solara a few years ago.

Mazda CX-7 or some variant of soccer mum car (not a Territory) a couple of days ago. Only giveaway was their uniforms and the fact they were tailing me for a while.

Undercover motorbike - these will really trick you.

One of these.

And a KE70

I think they pulled the last two from lockups or something.

Also heard of unmarked FPVs and HSVs trying to gee up drivers.

i saw a suzuki swift.. wasnt undercover.. had stickers lights and all.

I've seen that one too. A year or 2 ago, a Suzuki dealership gave the Dandenong Police Department a Swift as a gift of appreciation.

Yes to motorbikes being tricky. Especially undercover ones.

Also seen a VS station wagon undercover.

I've seen the opposite.

fake cops

as many of us know there are a few places along the Hume where cops are know to lurk.

I went past one with a life size Cardboard police motocycle in one..

very well done and slowed lots of ppl down too, (well till you went past and saw it was 1cm thick.)

i saw that and thought it was pretty cleaver lol :P

Mazda 3 MPS - serviced it at work in keilor area

Mazda 6 MPS - serviced it at work in keilor area

Audi A3 2.0T - serviced it at work in Brighton area

Cardboard Sign on hume got me lol

Heading up to Sydney tomorrow. Won't get me this time unless they are playing boy who cried wolf and real one sitting there.

I think it would be funny if you were driving an everyday beat around and ran into the cardboard cop.

....Hopefully it's still cardboard 2nd time round....

EDIT: I thought Evo cops were only in NZ?

Ford Territory Turbo.

Parked out the front of where I work.

Mate the Territorys are everywhere lol.

There was actually one time on the M1 freeway from north heading to SE suburbs. A policeman was taking speeds of drivers right at the merging lanes but on the zebra zone. Found that quite odd.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
