In regards to recording it.. not too sure about that - make sure you tell them you are doing it first.. or they tend to get nasty..

As for videoing it.. well you could.. not to sure though.. someone should get it checked out.

Mates got in trouble for locking their phone - cop was abusing them "are you recording this.. you better not be recording this" all he did was lock his phone and the light goes on.. silly silly..

I also believe the best you could do would be to record it.. most won't let you video it. always ask for their details 2..

you are allowed to record anything you want, wait for them to start abusing you, then say "oh, did i mension you are being recorded" then, if they abuse you some more, send the tape to their bosses.

everyone beleives the cop and not the hoon, but if you have at least audio evidence, youll be ok.

Guys.. guess what.. I called the police complaint centre today trying to file a complain against the officer who verbally abuse me when i was pulled over as mentioned above. I am so SURPISE. "In the court of Australia, the word "F*CK" is actually deem not to be offensive." So there is nothing wrong with the police officer who actually said it. Therefore, they can't file the complaint. LOL...... So next time when the police officer pull me over...

"Good morning fu*king officer, why the f*ck you pull me over, wat the f*ck did i do?"

Unbelievable and disppointed. :s

They're friggen cops. They deserve that name. I got done by a parking inspector today for parking in my own bloody driveway.....anyways to the matter at hand:

1: A police may record any conversation he is a party to.

2: A civilian may record any conversation they are a party to.

3: You do not have to answer an police questioning, besides your name, details etc.

4: Police cannot search your car unless they are searching for a weapon or radar detector, or have reason to believe that you have a radar detector or weapon.

They can use abusive language, that is legal, but cannot assault you (create an imminent sense of danger or harm.) Its handy (particulalry) for us Skyline drivers to carry some sort of recording device, for future reference :P.

Guys remember, that when you get pulled over, it is essential that you remain calm and polite at all times. Make sure you answer as little as possible, query the police officer of his judgement, for example, in this case where he said the car was too low, you should have asked him to measure it accurately as the law permits 10cm clearance and so on. Keep a cool head, think smart and the cop will leave you alone.

In terms of speeding and other infringements etc, the cop will first try and gain an admission. "Why were you speeding?" Any sort of answer to that question proves your guilt. The best answer being "I wasn't" or NO REPLY.

If you have a moody, abusive cop, first respond politely. If he still continues, that's when you rip out the attitude. So long as you can back yourself up, you're set.

Damn I love the Criminal Procedure unit @ Uni.

After exams I think I might write up exact details and laws people can refer to in relation to Police Powers in Victoria and post them on this forum......just because most cops are drainers and I hate them. I'd love to see the look on a cops face when you give them the name of the act, section and sub-section that governs the exact act that they are engaging in! :P

A mate of mine was pulled over in his trueno (wasn't speeding), and when the cop came to the window he said he was "exceeding the speed limit by 17kmh". Considering he wasn't speeding, my mate then says "Can I see your readout then???" Without answering the question, said cop says to pop the hood.

You still have to be careful in the way you talk to them regardless, because the police trump card is their ability to search cars for defects (and they will find something), meaning if they really want to f*ck you over they will f*ck you over. Remember that's not offensive in the courts of Australia. :P

But back to the topic at hand he shouldn't have been able to speak to you like that, but just get a voice recorder & keep it in your glovebox for if there is a next time. :P

      V37 Radiator removal

      By Duncan · Posted

      So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.

      Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go

      OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
