Hi all,

I am for the s.e suburbs of melbourne, were atm every second car is a police car and if its not its undercover..

I was at my local gym the other day in the narre warren area training away when i hear a cop siren in the car park..??

Sure enough i walk to the frount door to find a s14 pulled over by an undercover ss out the front..

Apparently they heard the car cumming up the hill to the gym and by the note of the exhaust they said they could tell that he was speeding, (without a radar) ..

because they couldnt prove this, they ended up giving the guy a majour canary on the car for the exhaust hanging to low, somthing hanging from the rear veiw mirror, and a loose spaeaker in the car..

Needless to say, the very nxt day i purcased 2 new tyres for my r33 and replaced my hks 3.3/4 inch exhaust system with the stock one !! (still leaving the 3inch dump pipe) lol..

On that note:

The car dosnt seem to hav lost any power at all..??

and ..If u live in the area they are EVERYWERE ATM!!

Call me crazy but..

as a car that u drive everyday it really dosnt seem worth it these days to modify ur car at all...!

just remember the nail that sticks out gets hammered ;)

keep your mods sedate ,keep the car quiet and drive with the traffic not ahead of it and you shouldnt have too much stress. I've been pulled over a few times and have not had a problem with my car but unfortunately others think its great to have loud lary cars and drag race princes hwy on friday nights.

/\ This guy. He speaks the truth.

Hmm, I noticed this to (specifically, in the S.E burbs (Dandenong, Noble Park, Berwick). With the new hoon laws, I'm actually genuinely thinking about selling up and buying something more sedate, something I can drive on a Friday or Saturday night without feeling overly paranoid...

Victora the place to be... defected

:whistling:

EDIT: When I 1st saw the title I was thinking of bogans in their Commodores with Chevy badges... LOL

Every 2nd commo I see has a chevy badge on the back.

Amen. It's like a disease... but everyone wants it.

its happening in my area in NSW too

In the space of 3 days 3 of my mates got defected. 1 yellow canary, 1 req blue slip, and the other for fog lights on and another almost got done for his number plate on the side (cop didnt see it at first)

fog lights on

that's one fine I 100% agree with.

learn to work a switch. same goes for the ultrabright fog brake light. if it's not foggy, turn it off. it dazzles other drivers.

just waiting for someone to come in whinging that their illegal HID bulb conversion got them a fine..

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
