Ok im not going to go into how or y i found this out, but i did happen to have a chat to one of the nicest cops i have ever come across. He told me that new legislation, lists "Designated Hoon Area's" and that we can have out cars confiscated just for being there during certain times (2-3 in the morning type thing) has neone else heard of this or was it just scare tatics?? either way the cop was really nice to me so thank you its nice to see they all arent out on power trips all the time.

Cheers

they would have to confiscate all cars or no cars for just simply being there...........

if they pick and choose when no offence is committed then it is blanent discrimiation. which is illegal and anyone convicted would have a damn good chance in court.

sounds like the cop either didnt know what he was talking about or got it confused with something else..........who knows........

The holding yard for "hoon tows" would not hold 50 cars!!!! and i find it very hard to beleive that 50 vehicle were ALL doin skids or the like at the same time. Seems your informant is pulling your leg dude.

By the way, hows the new 32 goin? heard you have already gone through your rear tyres :)

I got hassled after leaving the adelide police station, I was doing nothing wrong, I was even doing 50 in a 60 zone, I had to look back and see if I was in the wrong lane., but nah this cop was on a powertrip, and lucky for my friend walking past, who can be a witness(cops grabbed himd and checked his pockets) taht the cop was trying to consicate my car. All I had to do was ring Helen in J.A.B and tell her whats just ahppened and that cop would have backed off a fair bit.

Too right, so many police these days are taking the law and how its enforced into their own hands

I honestly dont understand how skylines can get pulled up everytime, but like old ass holdens and fords dont get nothing when in reality they probably havent had a break/tire/engine check for the last 10 years and could break and kill people.. yet we get defected for low front bars

what a joke

he wasnt going to pick or choose just said that if they wanted to which he didnt as he'd had enough of "us" over the last few weeks, he could confiscate all cars that were there under this new legislation.

Thats gotta be BS

I mean thats taking away our freedom,

Its a public place, we have a right to be there if we want to.

What if one of those occasional 40+ year olds that own nice skylines cruised there with his family just to go for a drive?

This is surely BS,

Especially certain places, like BWCP, ide love to see them try and confiscate at the peak of the nite .. like 500+ cars

What the hell is wrong with the police these days, dont they understand we are young and want to be creative and have fun, be unique and that we arent all crazy stupid hoons.

In the last few months ive hardly seen any stupid or 'HOON' driving from any skyline/supra etc

So what is there motivation for making these new laws?

I know its not figures, V8s are involved in WAY more accidents than skylines because of the simple fact that there is way less skylines.

We are a minority group, therefor enforcing a law solely on us will make little if no impact of road safety.

Police these days are absolute morons

Let's go here he says,

It's really good he says,

How come you got the nice one? Glenn and I got Mr Cranky Pants 2004...

Righto.

Actually I can tell you here, we did nothing wrong just drove through Magnesium Drive in Browns Plains at the wrong time. There were boggodore racing as we got there and they nabbed us instead. No real drama. I wouldn't mind so much if I was actually playing up...

yeh i saw a commowhore at Magnesium Drive neally hit a crowd of people, stuiped old vk 6cylender and not even lsd when to do a donut wat happens just does circles that got bigger and bigger until his front wheel hit the cerb and neally hit all his mates. after that we packed up and left.

    • 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.
