there probaby was some tihck book thrown together by vicroads, but it didnt include alot of imports

anyhow.. the copper who pulled me over had this list with cars and specs... and i asked him where he got that from

and he replied "adam petett from knox tmu formulated the list"

and just to add to that,.... i live no where near knox!

nah its got all different ecus, boost controllers, bleed valves, wat stock intercoolers look like on each import with photos etc.

can some1 post up pettets list of illegal cars to own as a p plater...

just de badge your car so it doesn't say gts or gts25t or gtr and most cops will look at these pics in the books and not have a idea on what car it is . so they can only guess if its legal or not, unless they see your turbo....

thank god ive got a full license and dont have to worry about these issues

^^^ not that easy when the police pop your bonnet and read your vin plate

anyways guys,.. petett and highpowered vihicles isnt what this thread is about.. sorry for pulling it in another dirrection

i'm not sure if that Petett fellow is allowed to simply pull together his own list and enforce it. surely it must go through some sort of legal process. Whats not to say then we could just put together a list of cars cops couldn't drive... (every car).

it be funny if someone could photo chop a cop car hooning... burnouts and donuts and overtaking. lol

I think the club needs to issue a statement to the media to distance ourselves from this irresponsible behaviour, stating our policies and approach to driver training and enjoyment in the appropriate venue (DECA or the track).

That would go down really well..... what with all the speeding fines and defects handed out on cruises.

I'm not a big attender for cruises so you will have to be a little more detailed. Certainly Speeding isn't condoned on cruises and this was never about modifications, just stupid driver behaviour.

Sorry Caz, I take that as even though it's club policy not to speed or drive dangerously on the streets during club sanctioned activities, because people do it anyway then we shouldn't reinforce our position and attempt to continue the education of our members.

Some would suggest our silence would be an admission of allowing or encouraging such activity when this is simply not the case.

"six-feet tall and bulletproof" - short cop

"If you've got the technology, then use it" - people do and they get fined for it or even get harrased for suspected phone use when there isn't one in the car!

    • Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.
    • I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.
    • For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.
    • I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.
    • Alright I understand. The most likely case is probably gonna be that I just keep the OEM unit in the car as long as it works.
