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 wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
