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..

This weekend with the blitz they really have gone all out. On a 20 minute drive i saw 8 cops driving.

Then i saw a defect station on Maroondah highway with at least 20-30 cops. Was quite funny, there was a group of 5 cops gathered around a Commodore with 20 inch chromies on the front and stockies on the rear, can just imagine the stuff he would get done for.

So glad i took the barina and not the skyline that day ahaha.

maybe WA cops aren't as bad yet though?

I'll say this.

Last time I got pulled over for speeding on the country roads, the cop just gave me the speeding ticket & left it at that.

Meanwhile I had a SAFC 2 in plain sight, 2 gauges mounted on the dash with double sided tape & a 3rd gauge drilled on to the A-pillar, which he didn't comment on at all. I would image the Vic police would be pulling out their defect booklet by now.

More importantly, my horn didn't work, which he just said to get it fix ASAP & left it at that.

Yeap I've had a ton of very reasonable fair minded cops in Perth ..

My dad was driving to the airport speeding a good 20kms over since we were late due to a road closure ... cop pulled us over, we explained why and he said dw go catch ur flight

Unfortunately for WA .. judging from the people from my highschool who went to try n become cops

WE'RE DOOMED

You bastard, i would so be one of those chumps, my eyes darting eagerly to your dash as i pass you looking desperately for any sign of radar/cop equipment...

one of the reasons i could never drive an SS/XR6 etc, i know im missing out but would just hate to see oncoming drivers hitting the anchors as i come over a rise just because..

oh and lol at above post, knew the biggest dropkick in highschool and later another at SES...both became cops :closedeyes:

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
