I'm at the the lights at I think brunswick st just at the end of the eastern freeway. Some shitty old stationwagon volvo was reving and giving all the signs of wanting to race. I laughed and when the light went green putted away while he screamed off (cough laugh choke). Anyway I saw a red light camera and thought something was a bit odd about it, I have recently heard that some redlight cameras are now speed cameras too. Anyway this volvo zipped off at around 70 and I hung back doing the speed limit, as he went through the intersection. FLASH! So heads up, I know the lights on springvale and highstreet rd have a speed camera, so here is the second one. I believe there are currently 4 in victoria! :/

There are about 3 sets of speed/redlight camera's on alexander parade, 3 in bound, 3 out bound. They've been there for at least 2 years now. The one on higtstreet road and springvale road is NOT a speed camera, it is an updated red light camera. There are 2 different sets of speed limits that intersect there, one is 60 the other 70. The way to tell for future refrence is look for a large cyclinder on a pole or the side of a camera, thats the radar.

There are far more that 4 in victoria, there's at least 2 where mountain hwy meets boronia road.

Plenty of intersections have these now. Dandeong Rd on cnr of Orrong is another example.

Made in Sth Melb by Redflex systems: http://www.redflex.com.au/traffic/traffic_frame.htm

They look like this:

If you run a red - they get you.

If you speed through on green or yellow - they get you.

If you speed through red - they get you twice.

welcome to a long time ago.. jeebz, half of those were up a couple of years even before I left!

I've noticed the victorian road toll is also pretty much exactly the same as it was about 4 years ago too, they government just has a lot of money to show for it..

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
