Just because I have 3 points left! and 2 years till i get a few back!

... Don't think i'll be driving this w/e at all.... just to be safe.

I have got bloody 4 points left

:D

After i finished work in northbridge one night when i had my commodore i was going near the stop sign out the front of Rosie Ogrady's at 4am in the morning. I crawled through the stop sign sooo slow the pedestrian walked through it quicker than me... the cops didn't care though they wanted a complete stop....which i guess the sgin does say..... i think they were being a bit harsh on me though when they gave me a $250 fine and 3 points!!!

Other points lost for doing 110kmh on the freeway....gets me every bloody time!!

And yourselves? and cops given you hard times and over done fines?

The last 2 days the 6PR have had talk-back about street cars and illegal racing.

The public have been making a ruckas about all the noise and the particular meeting points, while the police are giving their perspective and their strategy to combat it. Particularly operation canary, cb and RF radio intercepts and cracking down on cruising.

Its worth a listen.

Dropped my phone while driving, VERY small/light swerve across the road - $100, 3 points, Driving without due care and attention.

Speeding by 11km over - $100, 1 point. Multinova

Speeding by 12km over - $100, 1 point. Multinova

Operation of Fog Lights - $100, 1 point. Asshole cop

Speeding by 26km/h over, 126 on freeway, $150, 3 points. Cop was VERY nice, blah blah blah, thanks for comin... here's your infringement....

Yeh the last little "incident" i had. Cost me like 11,000 (thank god for insurance) and then the cops decided to throw 3 points 150 in just to add insult to injury.:D

Oh well dont need to speed this weekend. Gonna get all my rocks off on the track and i might even be able to try out my new "intermediate" throttle control skills:D

I understand the public being annoied at the level of noise at some re-group or meet points. There are some absolute tools out there who think that blasting their 130db sound system or revving their engine whilsts parked/stationary is cool.

What I do not agree with is cops cracking down on cruising. What gives them the right to target a group of rosd users who choose to drive together? What gives them the right to tell us where and when we can drive, afterall, who is it that pays for the roads and for govt. (Police - Transport Dept.) departments???

Sure, crack down on street racing, but for people that are crusing on public roads and not doing anything illegal...get stuffed.

:D

I agree with you HKS. But what the constable was saying was that people usually use the cruise to meet up with others and race during or after the cruise. I totally disagree with this.

Anyway, he went on to say that he knows that not everyone behind the wheel of a performance vehicle will be a problem on the roads, but the nature of the crackdown will be aimed at everyone. He said that it will be unfortunate for those who are innocent but they will keep a hardline on this. How unfair is that?

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
