hey guys!

Last night i was cruising with a few mates, one of them in an S14 was clocked down the graham farmer freeway doing 146kph, so he got slapped with 6 demerit points and a $350 fine and stickered for every mod he had.

I saw the cop there and tried to grab my phone to warn him but (damn connection time) i was too late and the lights went on. i guess this is why we need UHF's!

So anyway i guess he got off pretty lighty because he was trying to be polite to the cop. He managed to avoid being locked up, taken to court, $1500 fine and loss of liscence.

I guess we just gotta be more careful, especially around those bridges!

anybody know how much those radar jammers (front and rear) are and if they actually work?

Thanks!!

146? man he's very lucky.....

As to the radar jammers they are illegal to have in your car, like radar detectors?

I agree with Bass Junky.. keep it on a track.. :O

Anything's better then the new laws they're considering for Vic - 15km/h or over is instant loss of license.

WTF? you can't be serious!! That reminds me, I still have to send my letter into Mr Bracks, letting him know one of the reasons i left VIC was the revenue raising scum like him destroying the state. Haven't looked back.... There are better places to live with the attitude that every km over is a killer. It simply isn't.

Did anyone hear about some country or state which removed speed cameras for a 12 month trial?

they found there was no difference from the average of deaths while using or not using them.

In New Zealand everyone gets flashed same as here if you speed so many km over the limit, but they take the top 15% and fine only those guys and that seems to work well, its fair, and its not revenue raising!

maybe our government could learn something there

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
