Officially multi novas in WA are meant to be out in the open and well in view of motorists to add as a deterrant, and a sign should be clearly visible whena pproaching a camera before it goes off , I dont think in my life I have ever seen this, as for them removing the multa nova location's , i have never really taken much notice of the multinaova locations becuase I have always thought they will just move them around througouth the day anyway. Those licence plate things sound awesome, even better would be an electric operated front licence plate holder. that you could activiate within the cabin, that way if mr plod sees your front plate flapping around in the wind you could just switch it back and it would hold in place and you could accuse the cop of smoking some very bad weed

IS it illegal tomove your plate ? i have seen on numerous modified cars especially with intercoolers coult the plate not be moved to the right of the car or bent to face away from the camera? or is this illegal , PHUCK michelle R I think the only safe bet this state election is democrats becuase they rarely get around to doing anything worthwile

when i get back on thursday night i will get some metal on friday and start making some up

dude hook me up with one of those very interested how much do you reckon they cost?

yeah i'd go on a non stop smeer campaign if michelle gets down for a traffic thing.

no offence to anyone but you seem to forget something, if you dont speed you dont get caught, that said i admit to losing my license 2 times thru loss of demerit points, and now am a lot more careful when commuting. just be happy that our fines are a lot less than in other states. In vic they hide cameras in the back of cars and park them in the emergency lanes on the highways and freeways (so ive heard).

dont speed and you wont get caught!, or if you do speed, do it after 11pm and before 6am when they take the multis off the sides of the roads

my car has the plate on the right hand side, havnt been yellowed yet, and it works-

however

you can get a clear el type film that when you hit with a current goes black :kick: , you could hook it up to the buzzer in your radar detector for auto protection,or just have a switch anyone interested pm me ill give you some more details

i have my front plate on the far side of my car, i had had yellow stickers, been to the pits to get the sticker removed and no one along the way said anything about the plates at all.

(sticker wasnt for plate)

so i think if you stand like 5 or 10m directly in front of the car they have to be able to see the whole plate.

in saying that i passed a multinova on the road yesterday which was on the right hand side of the road :D

this is complete bull and yes it is revenue raising i dont care wat anyone else says

when people know the locations they drive slower around those areas which is wat we are supposed to encourage but if no one knows the locations of course they are gonna make more money off speeders its a complete load of crock they arent thinking about safety they are thinkin money

i have my front plate on the far side of my car

Same with me.

And yea, Thomas St/Winthrop Drv they like to put them in the median strip! Thus making them on your right...

Just wait untill they go for rear facing.. ;)

As for retractable plates... long screws will do it, or those little picture frame hooks... for somthing more elaborate go get the eyelid motor off a VL Calais and wire that up :D

*EDIT* Posted by exhale 32 (not me)

you know i wouldnt have such a problem with this if they actually spent the money back on our roads

they raise sum stupid amount in taxs and stuff from people useing the roads, they get taxs in fuel, registration for cars, tyres you name it they get it and its meant to be put back into the road. but it doesnt happen and now this aswell.

what a crock she can expect an email from me

they spent 15% of all the taxs raised from motoring into roads again, its jack shit

the freeway speeds here are just fckin slow, they shuld be more like UK 160KM

its the most open road in the state dunno how anyone could possibly have trouble sitting on that speed down there

merry christmas to u Michelle Roberts eat my ass!

merry christmas to u Michelle Roberts eat my ass!

ROFL she can eat mine to while shes at it.

That new train line down the fwy is bs and I do 100kph all the way down but not around the workers(sif they even work)but after they piss off!!

i should refit the swinging hinge for my numberplate. at speed the wind pushed it up so plate didnt show. worked a treat

did the same on my cousins car, his plate was attached to a metal bar on his front bar by cable ties

the cable ties would let the plate swing back at about 60kmph+

oh no u can't for like 3 weeks

u poor babies, try thinking of the other drivers out there that aren't as good a drivers as you lot, that don't own a car thats as mechanically sound as yours. u think there all going to be able to stop when u go speeding past them or cut them off, so you can get a clear lane.

yes its revenue raising, but my god your all a bunch of whingers. you want to know why young drivers, car enthusiats get the bad reputation??? look at this thread all negative responces, all complaining you can't speed at will.

grow up, when u witness, loose someone or die from a crash caused by speeding maybe you'll understand. true the multinova's haven't worked in slowing down drivers or reducing the death toll, i want argue that as i to don't think they have worked.

yeh my point is this doesnt promote safe driving!

fine speed and youll get caught, pay the consequences

but having locations known is gonna make alot more people drive slower around those areas, isnt that wat we want? isnt that wats gonna save lives? thats the whole reason they started giving the locations in the first place!

so unlike every other driver who has seen the locations on TV or the radio u drive slow for the entire street/road/subburd and not speed up again after you've gone past the camera. its been proven people do this with the advertised locations.

to me it would work better if they weren't advertised at all.

any slowing is better than no slowing at all as far as im concerned

if i know a speed camera is gonna be on a certain street i make sure i watch my speed alot closer and yeh maybe once ive passed it im not as cautious

dont you think thats better than nothing at all?

lol you must be old

"It strikes me as another revenue-raising exercise and it will only aggravate drivers out there and I don't think it's a smart move - it's actually a retrograde move,"

Yes I think they've gone a bit far this time..I mean seriously, saving lives or revenue? Come on :cheers:

    • Biggest thing is you're okay!   It sounds like between the accident, and the drive home, it was a pretty torturous trip again! On the bright side, you took the opportunity to enjoy the event more from the perspective of a spectator, than as an entrant!   Sad to see so much damage to the car. It really has taken a HUGE hit in the front end. If/when you choose to repair, hopefully the rails are straight (At least from shock tower backwards). Hopefully the extra cage coming through there has save most of the chassis rails, and HOPEFULLY saved the motor too. Best of luck when you eventually get motivated to start pulling it down to check it all out
    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !
