i only ever got pulled over in my r33 once. it was at about 10pm on a sunday night. on my 10 min drive home the only other car i saw was the police car, so it was kind of obvious why i got pulled over. it was just an RBT and licence check and then i was on my merry way again. i was never pulled over in my 180sx.

a guy i used to work with at maccas back in the day was pulled over all the time. i think he was up to about 80 times in 6 months. he drove a bog stock r31 (this was in 99 or 2000) and i think he also had a vn commodore at 1 point as well. he was also in his mid 20's at the time. multiple times he was pulled over within 50m from his driveway (when leaving). they were always for RBT and he was never booked for anything. it was the fact that he started work at 5am, so he was driving around at before 5 and the police thought he might be DUI. he didn't think of it as being picked on (although it did shit him off) because he know that he was driving at a time that A: a lot of people would be driving home after parties where they may well be over the limit, and B: there are bugger all others on the road so the police pretty much pull over anyone they see.

i have been pulled over on numerous occasions in noosa (i finish work at 2amish) and have never had any problems with police... the only semi bad one i had was a bloke in cooroy who thought i took a corner to fast but still diddnt check my car over or fine me...

Also i had a mate who got pulled over every single night 5 days in a row by the same police officers for rbt's all on his street...

If you mod the car for attention (bodykit, loud exhaust, DRFTKNG plates etc), hang out in stupid places and drive like a dickhead, then yes

If not, then no

Exactly, drive it smart and don't put a 4 metre high wing on it with 400 stickers and you'll be sweet.

Also i'm not sure if many people know this but police officers have sort of a check list, the first thing is your attitude. If your arrogant to the police they are going to be a prick back to you and make it difficult. If your cool and polite you should be fine just as long as you have nothing illegal.

I was pulled up on the highway near airlie beach the other week for a standard rbt and licence check, the cop was very nice we chatted a bit about the V35's as they are very rare this far north. Also his brother or something owns one. He actually mentioned that he knows this forum and that he said i have a very clean car for my green P's and to take it easy.

Go ahead and buy your Skyline, it was the best decision i've ever made!

driving my r34 back from the sunny coast on a Sunday is was about 11pm was about 20ks away from the gateway was driving in the fair right hand lane . Went past a exit seen a marked cop car parked got about 2ks away from him looked in the review seen no cars still thought to myself better hop in the left lane as there are no cars on the road. About 5mins after doing that i see these set of lights flying up from behind me just looked like a normal car flying . It went past me doing around 160ks it was the cop that was parked he didn’t have his red or blues on went right by in the right hand lane until he went out of view . about 2-3 ks latter i see him again ! parked to the side went past him again driving like a grandma the whole time. Again he disappeared out on my review about 2 mins latter aging Wosh ! past me again doing the same speed with no red or blues on . At this point i was thinking he is not in a rush to get any were he is just playing games with me i don’t think this is legal of him to do this but any ways he disappeared again . I got to the gate way seen him yet again parked in the middle with his red and blues on looked to be waiting for me ? just as i got over the bridge i took the 1st exit to my surprise i seen him flying over it but the sucker missed the exit i took by about 10 meters because he was going to fast . i guess lucky me my car does look tidy is a bit loud but over all never been pulled up yet ,

    • Maybe it's time for a M3 F80 LCI, and leave it stock.  Drive it to a shop, sip on your latte with nutmeg whilst it gets serviced and on the way home swing by and grab some chai mix for the evening.
    • Great work! Thanks for documenting the process.
    • How would you even adjust the clutch if the pedal already has the correct free play? The operating cylinder has no adjustment in mounting position or rod length. On pull style clutches there is also no ability to adjust the bearing carrier. Push type I can see how adjusting the carrier height makes it all work.   If this is the twin plate clutch did you verify that your friction disks were oriented correctly? It's not mentioned in the directions at all you just have to notice that one side the friction disks have a part number on the hub fingers and a subtle coning to those fingers. Another thing that I noticed was if you put the friction disks in backwards the pressure plate fingers will not be even and flat when the clutch is installed.
    • yeah, mechanically, it is probably do-able, off the top of my head, there would be the transfer case, which I believe will bolt up to the rear of the RWD transmission, the shorter rear tail shaft. A front drive shaft, front diff, engine upper sump, front drive shafts, front hubs and front AWD struts (they are shaped around the front drive shafts), LCAs (at the very least from the front suspension) oil cooler.  You might want the rear diff from an AWD too, so you can be certain the front and rear diff rations are identical.  Who knows what brackets and mounts you might need.  So a whole doner car might be the best option if you need to maintain RHD. Then actually making it work, that would be a whole different story.
