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.

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

      Yep, I really miss mine. I dont, however, miss it's understeer. Hard to find a genuine 'Sport' model these days. That sounds awesome! Good fun and great result!  I'd love to do a 1/4 in mine now that its reasonably healthy with the tune. I last did a run in my white GTR, I think it was a 12.3 and I can't remember the mph and I think the little E90 might be quicker.

      FWIW, I made 372kW on a Mainline dyno, with a stock motor (bar head studs & usual bolt ons) on E85 (pretty timid timing in the mid range) and it blew up after a year of track use. Probably got like 5~6 Wakefield track days and 1x skid pan somewhere in between.

      Plus, if you want to shoot for over 300rwkW, the Z32 won't really cut it and retaining the PowerFC is getting to be a poor choice. You're going to be much happier with management that can actually see what's going on and have a hope of stopping it from going bad when something breaks (think oil pump). So, the $$ situation is probably different to what you think it is.

      350-400kw will not keep that basically stock motor basically stock very long, especially for track only use. It will decide to need a rebuild pretty quickly. I'd go smaller, and not cheap out with a Pulsar item based on older tech. Get a G25 550/660. Just better in every way. Don't think about changing a turbo until AFTER you change your injectors (S15 injectors x6? What CC are those?) and coils/fuel pump. They won't keep up with any aftermarket turbo.
