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.

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
