How about we all get out and walk? Seems to be kind of heading that way with Greens, Road Rules and densely populated everything.

Oh but wait, I might get a ticket for "speeding" (walking too fast) or "tail gating" (trying to get past granny on the sidewalk).

Are they going to defect me for farting?

yeah, because you've got no cat.

Cops dont make the rules - they just enforce them.

Too many ppl in a car is a "hoon" offence now........ laughable Vic gov *shakes head*

Yes aware of this...not the point I was making though...people tend not to pick on their own kind :whistling:

And you get to legally hoon in a blue and white car :)

Is it just me or everyday more and more police are pulling people over? I drive short trips, 1/2 times on the 5 minute trip to work I see a police car pulling another car over on Doncaster Rd, and on long trips I see at least ONE person being pulled over a day by high way patrol. The cops are really cracking down on everyone.

^^Agreed too, always delays and sometimes it's too early, sometimes it's too late. TOO UNRELIABLE!!!

man doncaster road i ALWAYS see people getting pulled up down near the freeway entrance..

i went past a car pulled over the other day and *clutch in!* :P

though its gone way past the point of common sense..

im completely against people endangering others and driving like idiots, but to throw nearly everything into the category of 'hooning' is just a joke.

Yea always be carefull in doncaster haha, they love doncaster road. There must be a speed camera there atleast 3-4 times a week easy, always in the same spot.

Its funny how the cops are never around when you want though, i was coming home last night around 8 ish just minding my own buisness when this fag in his crummy door starts tailgating me for about 800m, when he realised i couldnt be bothered leaving him in my wake he 'hoons' past me (slowly at that lol), he was easy doing 100+ in a 60 zone, man i would have lol'd if he got done :cheers: .

^^ i've had this one guy do that to me before, he was tailgating me real close on the entrance to dandenong mountain at about 10pm on a friday night, so i pulled over into the carpark wandering wtf he wanted and he starts drifting around the carpark then i open my window to talk and he's like "you motherf-er i only wanted to drag you mate, i know you've got a turbo under there you motherf-er." Then he drives angrily off full revving his engine

and my co-worker who was late to work told us he got pulled over by cops on a saturday morning for driving on the doncaster rd bus lane, are cops stupid or something the bus lane is only monday - friday! they are just looking for trouble!

Kaitoukid: I think it's up to the cop at the time. I stupidly got done for hooning once (little fishtail), car got impounded for 48 hours & I asked what would have happened if it was my parents car. He said if I could prove it I could drive my car to the impound yard & swap...

This was 2-3 years ago though... They wouldn't let that dr have his Lambo back when his mechanic was hooning in it.

Shadz: I think exactly the same. If you get busted for a third offence & know when you pull over your car is going to be confiscated & crushed that is just ammunition to run.

Can definitely see an increase in high-speed police chases....

Precisely.

Do you think Jo Bloggs in a 400kw GTR with $40k hanging over his head, knowing his car will be crushed with no re-reimbursement, is going to pull over knowing the consequences? Hell no....

probably not but that depends how fast you can make enough money to get it replaced, if u make 40k a day and some people do, you would just let it get confiscated and buy a new one and mod the new one easy.

Know a few people on $15mil a year do you..?

    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
    • Thanks GTSboy. I will inspect the valves actually, is this something I can do while they are still in the head? The block/bores don’t look bad to be honest hey, I can still see the cross hatches in the bores and they still measure 86.5mm. I’m not sure how to measure the installed ring gaps but I will do that and take it to someone who can. 
    • I’ve had the same headache with my lowered car, scissor jack first then floor jack every time. Ended up grabbing an extra-low profile aluminum jack (about 70mm entry height) and it finally slides under the lip without drama.
