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..

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
