isnt it strange how if they see a 'New Holden' they probably wont pull him over, but if a old R32 doing the correct thing on the road is spotted, theres no second thoughts about pulling him over, the lights just go on. one of my relatives was doing a course in law were he became a cop for about 1 year and he quit it, the reason was; "Cops are so corrupted these days, they think that just because they try to enforce the law they think they can break it, theres always at least 1 out of 10 good cops, but its getting worse every year"

Burns just remember to keep it cool and dont rush ahead, you'll win this.

hey if you want to get off the fine you would be more likely to do so if you can say you did it because it was safer to do so than remain completely in your lane.

Say what you first brought up, thought there was an accident and slowed down and moved away from the roadside edge to take a more safe route. Then you can use the picture of the cop as it too looks like he has moved away from road edge over the centre of the lane because he's seen your father there and its the safest route because a pedestrian might step out in front.

Try and take the 'its more safer route' rather than try and dodge the issue up. Of course you wont have much chance of convincing them that you were being 'safer' if say you have a total of 11 points, in that case I would just let it slide.

hogans ghost!!! hahaha use the alf stewart pic!!! thats so piss funny, hahaha. if the world was a perfect place, that alf stewart pic would stand up in court. get alf to come in and be the eye witness....ya flamin mongrels

as far as i know self preservation is a valid defence to any road-related offence (protecting yourself)

if you state the the road was unsafe, and that you moved across the line to protect yourself etc, and then use the evidence of a police car doing the same. (by agreeing with you that he was doing it for a "saftey" reason also gives the officer an easier way out of an embarrasing situation)

even then the court may not accept the digital photos as evidence.

also im pretty sure u can't "spring" the photos on the cops in court while they are testifying as others have previously stated

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
