This was a bit odd: Was driving home last night at 1am along Albany Hwy (60 zone) doing 75 when I noticed a car coming up behind me in the right lane. Didn't think much of it, and kept going. After a while, the car changed into the left lane, came up beside me and that's when I realised it was a copper! Doh!

I was still going 75 and was waiting for him to pull me over, but he just slowly accelerated and drove off... Phew! :D

(guess he just couldn't be bothered or maybe he was on his way home)

Weird how sometimes you get nailed for just doing 6 over and other times (eg. 120-something on Old Coast Road!) they do nothing!

Anyone else been let off the hook ?

Yeh that has happened a few times to me. Just when u think their gonna pull u over they dont. Trick is to slow down easy when they pull up behind u they are usually speed checkin so if u stomp the brakes they will know easy.

BTW: he coulda got u for riding the right lane:rolleyes:

How this for a funny but close one.

I was going through winthrop av/ stirling hwy near UWA and the light turns orange so i think waht the hey and go it. Drive down stirling and onto the freeway and turn off on canning then start going down kintail road and WHAM look in the rear view and low and behold a pig car right there.

Apparently he had to chase me all the way from UWA. All i can say is what a moron i wasnt goin that fast and it was an EB for gods sake.

Thought that was worth a tell seeing as i laughed all the way home and dam near in his face.:lol:

if you wanna rig up a switch, connect it to your rear numberplate light, hope they haven't seen the plates already, and they can watch as the back of your car dips and you screech off into the yonder

hmm...maybe not

you might end up on that polair program on access ;)

my h/brake doesn't work properly so I always pull that up to slow (unless of course full brakes are needed)

Bizzare incident i remember was when i was in my old R30 a couple of years back. coming down ranford rd near canningvale, a dark green vt pulled up beside me with pursuit rims, i looked over at him when he went past (sure enough he was a cop). He then looked at my car and floored it! so as a joke i did aswell! he then kept booting it until we reached a set of lights where he turned right, when i went passed him (by this time i had slowed to the speed limit), he just looked at me with a smirk on his face! i thought to myself - draggin' a cop! wtf!!?

My mate has a dark blue VT s2, darkish tint, pursuit rims, mobile aerials on the back window, no number plate surrounds... so when we wear our light blue business shirts and go for a cruise people sh*t themselves and slow right down....

works best on the ricers in Honda's, excel's etc :( oh, and P platers!

piss funny ;)

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
