Pulled into my local Mobil last night, To find the Cops in there XR6 turbo grabbing everyone who came in to either roadworthy, breath test and license check people.

Its a bit nasty, all you want to do is pull in for fuel and you get canary'd. I saw a few guys parked looking a bit upset with a sticker on the windshield, and you've never seen so many people in new SS commodores slowly sneaking out up the road not revving above 2 grand.... Thank christ I was filling up Mums Festiva :wassup:

A petrol station isn't "private property" due to the fact that there is public access.

And as far as I know, Police can defect a vehicle anywhere, including in your driveway.

I understand this to be true as well, as long as there is no gate or fence etc. Doesnt mean its right tho.

Where is this servo? Is it a Quix?

remember to lock your gates tho, coz if its open they don't need a warrant, just like your house, if you leave the door open they can enter without a warrant

:bs!: Doesnt that mean they would never need a warrant because they could just walk in as soon as you unlock the door to see who it is?

They must have a warrant or your permission to enter your house.

It's also one of those jurisdiction things...

If you have a pound of weed in your glovebox while you are driving, it's free and clear for prosecution. They can search with provocation.

If the car is parked in your garage and they have no warrant, it's forfeited as inadmissable.

If you have the pound of weed sitting on your dining room table as the cops come in on a non-related matter, it is admissable as a incidental seizure.

I can only see the cops getting more and more cavalier in their approach towards modified cars so I think we're all eventually forced back to more stock performance cars like M3's, s2000 etc.

if the door is open and unattended and they have reasonable doubt as to your safety they can enter :) technicality

Technically, if you leave your door unlocked, anyone can walk in without permission.... and if you assault them or hurt them in anyway, then YOU are the one at fault. If someone wanders into your house, you can ask them to leave, but until you have asked them to leave, theres absolutely nothing within the law that says they cant be there.

The law is a very strange thing.

    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
