tonight after having dinner with friends i went out for a bit of a cruise, come up to the lights at london crt heading towards the big arse round about come through that and ended up racing a 911 turbo which had no chance. We both stopped at about 90 klick just after the round about and backed off. Any way another skline (r33) bright pink thought that it was an open invertation to race, both me and 911 didnt race them instead sat back and ended up laughing at the r33 when they got done by an undercover cop in a white 4wd. That I had supected any way.

I feel sorry for the person in the pink r33. I wonder if they are on this so i can say sorry to them cause that would have sucked. :throwup:

well sorry any way.

no he's not on the boards, yes fear the undercover white 4wd, ive been pulled over by it before (unless theres more than 1) but the guy driving it is very decent.

im not doing anything stupid regarding driving in mine, as the police have been out in force with formal time around and ive been getting a little relaxed about letting the speed creep up. so im going to be very responsible and not do anything i shouldnt now untill its sold.

Really is a form of gambling when you plant the foot.

Canberra has so many more undercover cars now days and I have even noticed a regular change in unmarked cars. It is varying between daily drivers a fair bit.

I'm not a big fan of the stealth tactics of the Police as it is so plainly a revenue raiser. It's never been aimed at protecting the publics safety or drivers safety or even enforcing the laws. It's there to raise revenue to justify the numbers. I dont care if they keep the numbers up and the revenue raising goes down. It means theyre doing a good job. There in the business of safety not the business of profit. They don't have share holders to satisfy.

What other purpose can hiding in the bushes, or hiding the fact that your police in an unmarked car. Keep it for undercover work fella's.

On the road it should be about being seen and seen frequently so the public see you and beleive me they will take notice and will slow down. It's a fact that guys are visually stimulated......

Thats my rant except the sooner we get a dragway in Canberra so that the thrill is on the track the better. If this reduces the number of fines given out on the street what tactics will the police use then. Constant defecting ?

    • 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).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • 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
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
