Dan, I have been thinking about what you said about informing the cops from a couple of days ago. I wanted to weigh the risks and make my own mind up.

I do think based on the numbers that me informing police would be beneficial. at first I thought we were just having a big sau crowd which would be easy to control and identify people, but with multiple clubs that I have no information about other then number of members attending, it would seem appropriate

I will do this shorty.

it was just a thought, and i like you, see advantages and disadvantages for either approach... it's hard to know which way to go'

i was thinking of perhaps letting Graeme know, might be a better way to pass the message along

it's a tough call that's for sure

Im out...my car is poo and drives accordingly, much to the liking of vic pol...besides got premiere tickets in gold class....I think I'm getting old...cbfed with the car anymore LOL

Is it really gonna get to the point where we are taking a chance with the Police?

Notifying them can possibly come out with a worse outcome. I'm pretty sure they know almost all imports have some sort of defectable mod to them.

I dont wanna be the first defected M35 Stagea in Aus lol.( i dont think i am, but Im sure they'll find something if they really wanted)

I mean the last cruise that everyone got EPA'd, didnt the Popo say something about not getting EPA'd if "you all clear out"?

If im taking a chance, maybe I'm out..

my sentiments exactly

Out of the 2 times that I've been on a cruise with a stagea and out of the 2 times that all the skylines were pulled over in a group, the stagea gets away every single time lol

third time(un)lucky?

I'm out of this cruise+1 passenger. I think its WAY too big to go un-noticed.. i'm simply not taking the chance!

But goodluck to everyone, including the organisers!

Everyone is driving at their own risk. It's up to you whether you go in your car, someone elses or not at all. Obviously there is the chance that you will get done.

Personally I'm glad I'm have the ute as I can just slink away and pretend I don't know you guys :whistling: Just kidding :P

Ok, how about, before I decide to inform police, we go over the rough advantages vs cons

adv

-----

Could be seen as a mature approach and we tell them anyone acting inappropriately will have their number plate written down,

it ends up being a good night and everyone enjoys themselves

con

-----

If they didn't know the event was on they now would, they could still choose to give out defects

the destination - they could choose to place police at the drive-ins

dont inform them, get done anyway... what to do?

any others?

Hehe don't be such a pussy Aaron :P They are probably reading this and laughing.

As for notifications I say just let it run, if the cops show up then so be it.

ah we'll see what mood im in on the night..

i dont wanna drive an hour to coburg just to get defected lol..

on the other hand, i drive a car that looks like the new volvo, like chaos says, i could probably just drive straight past and pretend not to know you hahaha

I'm sure with revenue in their minds they would just rock up and start dishing out defects.

weighing it up;

how much would they get from the Number plates you provide - based on the fact they cant do anything anyway without witnessing and having physical proof

or

being there and legally being able to hand a fine out.

giving them number plates doesnt give them a right to hand out a fine..

Im not having a go, I can see that your trying to help the Sau members but yeh..just a thought

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
