spotted two highway patrols in box hill today near the main tram stop - looks like they were ready to pounce on drivers on each side of whitehorse road

so im guessing they are getting ready to start the blitz >,<

Graeme you're the best.

I'm not surprised they're not using it... even our standard demerit point system is bonkers compared to some I've seen in Europe.

love the cops in Europe... was on the Autostrade in Italy doing about 130-140km/h in the left lane (fast lane) as there were a bunch of trucks in the other lane... a cop comes flying up behind me flashing his lights and tailgating me, I'm thinking fark is he pulling me over!? so I pull into the right lane when I get a gap between trucks and he takes off at least 150km/h+... I was in his way and he was in a hurry apparently lol

cops are always out in numbers here over easter... yaaawn... just make your other half drive... then you can have a few cheeky ones :nyaanyaa:;)

as far as i know vic has never had double demerits, every public holiday one of these threads pop up just google the answer will be right in front of you.

You mean in general? Happens every year bro...

Speed limits in italy etc are 130kmh in general.. my gf was born and lived in rome .. well since forever (she only really just moved here) and the one thing she is paranoid is of speed limits here.

Apparently italians generally don't give much of a shit while speeding, the whole "I'm 10kmh over the 130 limit and someone is telling me to GTFO out of the way" is pretty common. Even if it's the police, lol.

That said, always best to bust out the ol Camry on long weekends :P

Yah the European roads are brilliant quality as well. I drove in a 130 zone at 180 quite a bit of the way from Barcelona through Andorra to Claremont Ferrand, even past cops, and did't once have any trouble.

My motorcycle coach was a mechanic for the Repsol Honda Moto GP team for 17 years and they used to speed the massive trucks through the country, get pulled over then bribe the cops with merch lol. Then again my other friend who lives in Barcelona got beat up by the cops in the city. There's always a flip side I guess.

Nah man.

Hoe do you peopler survive in a world you know son little about

Ask the resident po po man here but to mynknowledge Victoria has NEVER had double demerits and certainly doesn't this weekend.

I wish there was double penalty for the idiot I caught tonight. Drives from western suburbs to eastern suburbs 45 minutes whilst heavily intoxicated. Hits the barrier in city link 3 times and keeps going, crashes into 2 cars in Glen Waverley and keeps going. Finally we catch him leaving the scene. He blows almost 6 times the limit. Nice effort IDIOT

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
