I Wonder How Hard The Police Push These New Laws ?


Recommended Posts

by this u mean not adjusting them anymore ?:D

or u have to weld them down? :(

then again... how often do people adjust the height of their coilovers? I know I only set mine once or twice in 3 years :P Would nismo ones sound more "legal" ?;)

I mean having them welded into position.

between the new bikie laws and this hoon crap, QLD is turning into a bit of a hole of a place to live in

There is also proposed changes for noise complaints to combat out of control "social media/facebook" parties.

Basically gives the police far easier access to come onto and search your property

Almost tempted to ship my car to my brothers place down Melbourne and just fly down there for events

Shouldn't have too. It's like the whole cops can strip search on the side of the road to confirm you don't belong "outlaw" motorcylce gang. They'll have to arrest me before I strip down to prove my innocence.

that's funny, i usually have the police telling me to put my clothes back on :P

wonder what happens with the forms received though, so one person fills out a form saying you're hooning, and then what, you're charged? or flagged on the system, etc?

I don't "hoon" but do drive a car with a louder than stock exhaust and nice rims, the way some people look at the car even just driving along normally it's like i've got my foot to the floor producing 40 metres of smoke. Driving at 10k ph through a wide open carpark and some guy goes 'slow down dickhead' wtf, I don' think it will go any slower without being parked mate. And that's my concern with this, that some people's ill-informed perceptions will result in people being penalised or at very least have un-needed trouble created for them.

Correctamondo. It's a perception thing different people see it differently. My coworker had same issue on the weekend up nebo was doing 60 in the 80 zone and some old biatch was walkung her dog in the road and yelled at him as he passed saying slow down blah blah blah

I do not approve....

you could have alot of fun filling out the forms though...

I may go hunting for commodores with offset pink rims just to get them off the road. Chermy is close enough to nudgee i guess

Yah I really like it when I ride a lower gear to hear my exhaust through some road works

and the "stop go" guy starts waving at me to slow down

when I am already 5km/hr under their already ridiculously low speed limit.

Yet the truck flying by at 20 over is fine.

i consider the loud exhaust a road-safety measure, kind of like an early warning system. Car coming, get the hell out the way. Being in a car when I can't even hear if it's idling/on makes me physically nauseous.

It took a lot of getting used to with the Maxima. Felt really weird at first.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
