Hey guys, listening to 3AW this morning, VicPol is setting up a trial taskforce in the Dandenong, kardinia and casey(?) area. They said it will be trialled for 3 months. This taskforce is specifically targeting hoon drivers, drag racing, overloading etc. There was also mention it will try and act as a deterrent to hoons who gather and meet up. I had a quick google couldn't find any articles on it yet. Just a heads up!

Well if they are targetting illegal activity that is good! At the end of the day its this stuff that is making it harder and harder to own a modified car! But if they are targetting like minded car g

Yeah road rules to be obeyed etc is common sense.... But more concerned if i drive through one of these stupid Hoon Squads and get pulled up for being a criminal due to driving an improved production

But if they are targetting like minded car guys/gals and modified cars then that is a negative!

Lol what a joke. All the pol officers do is walk around bashing people and shoot at them.

That fg meet was a joke, they defected someone for missing a screw in one of the back speakers.

WTF? :O

That is exactly what will happen though. Police breaking up totally HARMLESS gatherings, defects, assaulting members of the public etc etc.

It's only going to get worse.

Tougher you try to behave, the more resistance you are going to get

id like to see the proof of this because the legal litigations that this would cause if you were to take it on would be an interesting matter.

Casey is if i am not mistaken.. the following :

Narre Warren North

Narre Warren South

Gembrook

Dandenong

Cranbourne

Just another way Vic Police is stopping itself from doing real police work. Thieves and Killers can breath easy tonight, knowing that the cops are doing nothing to stop them, but are doing everything they can do stop like minded people getting together to enjoy a similar intererst

No, they can defect it, but once you cross the border the defect is useless

So do you guys cop a fine etc with the defect? I assume when returning to VIC the defect will remain and can cause a hassle? I guess this is kind of off topic a bit

i dont believe this to be the case which goes for the same as plates/licence because they have no authority/jurisdiction for it....This is why they push for a change of plates/licence in any given state

This is also the same for truck drivers which is why they have now been moved to an National licence to avoid the issue.

This is also the same for local HWP etc as they can not book/fine/defect outside their jurisdiction of given area/lac

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
