WARNING: Very sneeky sneeky undercover cop car...


Recommended Posts

Was having a few brew's tonight at my local and a fight erupted between some locals and some passing by plumbers (I drink at the BURV cos I can roll across the road after work and I don't drive to work on most Friday's)

Anyway, after fight was stoped. Cops arrive and one cop car caught my eye.

I saw two uniformed officers get out of a Navy Blue Mirage. Not any old Mirage, this one had an aftermarket front spoiler, side skirts, 3" exhaust tip plus (this is the killer) it had those neon blue lights on the bonnet for the winsheild washer squirt things. No way I would have picked it as a cop car in a million years.

So next time you see a Mirage... Look twice B4 playing up.

where exactly was this?? damn, those sneaky bastard are getting on my nerves but what bothers me is that they are hypocrites, ive seen cars get pulled over for those lights...

The BURV (good pub... once you get the "feel" for the place) is on the corner of Burwood Hwy and Springvale Rd.

lol... i sometimes pass by the area, if i saw that car i would roll down my window and say "hows it going officer??"... or an even better idea would be to challenge em to a drag (rev your engine) but when the lights hit green just stick to the speed limit and laugh... :(

Beer goggles on... yes. 100% sure it was a Mirage.

Good old Burv. Like I said I work across the road and with all the other multi-national companys (HP - MYOB - Motorola - Cannon - CFA - VIC Roads) you can get a nice spread of office chicks and surburban bunnys + the "ruffnecks" and it all blends in well and creates a great atmosphere for a Friday drink with workmates (even bettter in summer - large beer garden) and there is 6 pool tables. It not a place you would through a birthday party or go to "hang out" on the weekend. It serves it's purpose as a place to wet your whistle after a big week at work.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
