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 ;)

    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
    • If there's oil in with the clutch, I hope it finds its way out even if that hole has a cover/grommet 😛 I don't want oil near my cars clutch! 😛 Interested to hear the answer about covering it, I'm assuming a bung for a gearbox from another car that has a grommet to suit.
