FINALLY, i got my first speeding ticket in my 3 yrs driving history last night.

And it was SO stupid...

driving from city down south, at anzac highway i met 2 young kids car. Once i turn into south road, one of them who driving a nissan NX keep parallel to my car, i igore him but he keep staying in that position for "mins". Until we get close to used tyre mart, he finally give up and slow down. i drop into 4 gear and pull away from him as he is so annoying.

But at the time i put my eye on the road again from the rear mirror i reach a traffic light, apply the brake slightly but not enough... "FLASH"! there u go $17x...

other than money, i have been punished by GF not allow to turn on my boost controller for 2 weeks.. :chairshot

you never know Chapman - a fair few of those permanent cameras fail - I got done about 4 months ago at Golden Grove on the way to marshal at the Coopers Rally, saw the flash, but never received the fine (I hope it's not still on the way). :/

nar there's no need for that is there maxx.

She is heading home soon.. :)

wow.. My last speeding ticket was when I was 20.. 70km/h in a 60 zone.

Thats a damn record. 5 years.

That was in my little old slugger, rattly, had to replace the whole drive line & rear IRS chassis VS 5ltr 5 speed Commodore because it couldn't handle 150rwkw of brute.. umm slugginess. lol.

I got a couple of 70km/h in 60zones in that. The gearing was long and made it easy to creep over the speed limit after accelerating away from a set of lights.

I have had a lot of close calls with mr policemens on motor bikes though.

They always just happen to have pulled some one else over, one let me go and simply shook his head at me. (110 in 100 zone Southern Expressway)

How fast were you going Maxx?

      When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
