I heard a story about this guy who went over to a mates house to pick up about 8am, beeped his horn quickly to alert his mate that he was waiting outside, apparently a cop lived accross the street and 3 days later that guy got a ticket in the mail... so i guess off duty cops are cops 24/7

I'm not saying that he wasn't on a power trip, but you're surprised that an off-duty cop came and hassled you when you were sitting there revving your engine (you have an aftermarket exhaust no doubt) and beeping your horn at your mates?

I'm not surprised in the slightest.

To rectify the problem , yes you can get booked by an off duty copper, he can write down your details and then forward it on when he is back on duty, well he will most likley do you for excessive noise in a built up area or neg driving (doubt this one) maby even speeding but you will never know give it 2 weeks if you havent got anything well you got lucky, but if the cop was pissed you most likley will get a ticket .

just wondering guys, theres a few hoons who live around the corner from my place, and i have 2 admit the corner is tempting to drift, but its just way to dangerous especially with the few kids in our street. if i was to report them to the cops, is it just their word against mine or can they actually get into trouble for it?

I've been booked for "EXCESSIVE USE OF HORN DEVICE". Cant remember but i think it was about 70 bucks. Problem was that everyone was doing it it was during the World Cup when Croatia beat italy and i decided to drive past Norton Street for a Joke and was beeping and all the italians were beeping and rioting and crap and i got booked.

actually if he was highway patrol, they can book you for speeding on visual assessment.. been done to me and my mates!! so dont think that no radar means you get off.. hope he doesn't do you for what you've told us!

oh and off duty cops have an obligation to come on duty if the need is there... sisters b/f got done by a cop on holidays in port maquarie area!

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
