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?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
