Is a very fair call E.

I'm still taking everything they say with a grain of salt - but what can we do? Is better to inform them of the meet and hope they behave, than have a unit stumble across it and call in the SWAT team.

The officer I spoke to said 'if you guys play the game, then we'll play the game' - in reference to us behaving ourselves. Lets hope they treat this as a valuable PR exercise - and perhaps a bit of education to the Po's - that we're capable of having a civil, organised meeting with no trouble.

That said - they haven't exactly bent over backwards to incite our trust in the past, so if you are concerned - don't bring your car :D

Also:

SGSKY: I would like to apologise for my unfriendly response in the previous post. Was having a bad day. You asked a fair question - and I unleashed. Sorry :)

I spose we can only hope. At the very least you've done the right thing and informed them of the meet. It gets it out in the open and proves we aren't trying to hide anything.

In any case, I have other plans that night so I won't be there. However for me to bring the car to any sort of meet the current climate with the Police will need to warm up a quite a bit more than the frosty chill which exists now.

This is a step in the right direction tho.

All the best for it fellas. I hope I'm wrong about the police treating it as one big the sphincter of the universe Shoot.

you have to remember tho that if u act like a spastic u deserve to be bent over like one... even outside the meet on the way there or home.

Steady there Nark, I couldn't agree more. I would be shocked and dismayed if any SAU member did act like a spastic. I'm positive everyone would be on their best behaviour.

However this would not stop the police handing out EPA notices and canaries at will, or hassling ppl just because they feel like it.

Most ppl would agree that simply driving up the road to the shops can be enough to attract unwanted attention from the Law.

that all comes down to bad PR for them... which is where contacting ACA and the like comes into play

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
