Ford Xr8 Or Holden Ss Hwy Patrol


Recommended Posts

Sorry John,
But I don't quite understand how a Skyline Fanatic can express appreciation for a stealth look Holden or Ford when in the past month two unmarked HWP Falcons have been spotted on the M5/Moorefields and Pacific Hwy/Chatswood with green P plates on them.
Traffic Law seems to be on their side when Agent Provocateur application is only admissible in criminal matters. In USA it's called entrapment.

Yes, but a toothless tiger law when the police are on one side and we're fair game.

It carries 1 point but I can't see how Mr Citizen will impose that onto a copper.

You are correct though kind Sir

Well Terry, i'm one of those people that tries to see good points of any car, they are highway patrol and their task is to try to ensure smooth traffic flow for the safety of the public and themselves, thats why you see them have orange florescent at the back and stealth at the front, its a smart design as it lets people see them when they make traffic stops and invisible when they are behind you as this is to ensure we can never know if that car is a cop behind us so therefore we keep to the speed limit

Just my 2 cents :)

Well last week, I had both pull me up at the same time (nothing like two cop cars with sirens on behind you). The ve commodore looked more intimidating because I thought the falcon was a taxi had no police on the bonnet and the clear lights it was weird.

They were nice policeman thankfully. They were looking for terrorists with POD filters.

I'm sure that you can easily spot a undercover very easily from behind when they have long antennas sticking out everywhere, i think a normal citizen wouldn't be drag racing with a P plater at the traffic lights despite the evidence of a uniform and antennas from that car hehehe.

Well I'm not sure which is more intimidating brah but I've done a 60kph roll on with both and I fkn annihilated them both, the ford was closer but really I smashed em both.

My weapon of choice, TDi Passat wagon, its chipped n shit n gows hard.

I had to back off but at around 180 for some traffic lights n shit.

Sounds like Elegant Skyline is back for more trolling attempts

We can find out if its him, ask him if the police cars had GTR badges on them. :)

You are a waste of space aren't you?

I believe i'm in the right section "General Automotive Discussion"

This isn't the general automotive discussion section of the Camry forum.

Well look Ben get your facts straight, it states;

"For disussion relating to all other cars, bikes and other powered vehicles"

No wonder the quality of the Skyline Forum is declining rapidly cause of these dimwits.

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
