they might have kick ass cop cars to us, but if any of u guys have seen the Yellow Monaro in the city (melb) or the other i think glow in the dark silver SS's....they look soooo cool, with the checkered police markings, all shiny and sh*t, look awesome.

what the hell were they thinking when they did those paint jobs??? :confused:

edit: the jap police cars paint jobs i mean. :thumbsup:

yeah......well.........i've never seen initial d........so there! :D hehe :mad:, i still don't like the paint job, not for a car like that..... :D

btw that wing is a std R34 GTR wing i thought

i think he is referring to the plastic strip on the bonnet, the front of the car. That's where u find the bonnet.... :D

haa.. i was just about to post the same topic. my gf's sister's husband lives in japan(neither japanese...) and said they use skylines like series 2 r33 gtst's for police cars.

she said they mainly use the r33 gtst's series 2's for undercover cars. wikid.

maybe i should cruise around the streets pretending im an undercover cop :D hehee..

"excuse me sir...... but your under arrest for not owning a japanese car."

ps. please excuse my poor attempt at a joke.:mad:

pps. im lame;)

same!! i saw it at the corner of Spencer and Flinders St, does look pretty mean! :uh-huh:

The silver SS highway patrol cars look awesome as well. Now we know where all the speed camera revenue goes, into the $10K paint job/decal to get the cop cars looking so spiffy :P

yep and i actually have a 15ec video of an r34 police car chasing a white gtr....

the white gtr looked like it was winning....

The police car chasing the white R34 GTR isn't a GTR at all.

It's some Toyota car which not sure which model.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
