Hey guys, silly question does anyone know for sure if the Eastern Freeway, Middleborough Rd overpass speed cameras are working or not? ive heard mixed reports. I think i was doing 110 udner them the other day and is a bit paranoid.

Cheers,

Thanks mate, im not from that side so didnt know if they did or still had them.

I know where the fixed cameras from the western suburabs are. I dont think any of the ones on the western ring road are working

However, theirs some new ones thats working (cos my mates mum got fined 3 times in one day..poor lady) goin towards the city just under the millers rd exit ramps and under the millers rd exit signs going away from the city. so be careful everyone.

no wukkers mate i travel down the eastern all the time and i dont even see cop cars till you hit the Chandler Hwy exit inbound...

\yup thats right..however I did get pulled over travelling into the city...they got me on radar off one of e exits... just be careful as u approach an on ramp cos they hide up there and wait for you to come past...but its rare anyway.

they are allways sitting on the entry ramps onto the freeway. Have seen them several times on the middleborough rd entry ramp towards the city and the doncaster rd entry ramp goin towards nunawading. so be careful, they allways sit there.

yeah no fixed cameras but definitely mobile speed cameras on the onramps on Doncaster, Tram and Middleborough roads. Definitely not a good idea to speed around there.

New camera locations submitted to The Australian Scanning Board Here's

a quick summary of on what roads the cameras can be found:

Westgate Freeway - Princes Highway - Operational.

1. Top of Westgate Bridge

2. Hoppers Crossing Overpass

3. Point Cook Overpass

4. Point Wilson Overpass

5. Little River Overpass

6. Corio

7. Norlane - (just before the waterslide)

Note: These are elapsed time trigger cameras; they estimate your average

driving speed between checkpoints. So slowing down before each overpass

will not fool them.

Western Ring Road - Operational

1. Boundary Road - Laverton North

2. Western Highway - Ardeer

3. Calder Freeway - Keilor East

4. Tullamarine Freeway - Tullamarine

5. Pascoe Vale Road - Glenroy

6. High Street - Thomastown

7. Plenty Road

The Eastern Freeway 5 cameras, operational.

The Monash a further 5 cameras in addition to the one that has been

operational since 28/12/01. This one is approximately 600 metres from

the entrance to the Burnley Tunnel.

The Calder Freeway from Keilor Park Drive to Kyneton has been earmarked

for 9 cameras, estimated operational date to be advised.

The Hume Highway to Albury has been earmarked for 11 cameras, estimated

operational by 7th June 2002.

send me an email at [email protected] : if you want a text file listing all the fixed speed cameras.

hope this helps the confusion.

peace out!

    • Thanks Duncan! Yeah it's street use for me only. Maybe occasional track day. Any difference in noise when running with the two pumps? I would expect the lift pump to be more quiet than the main pump so hopefully not? And yes, unfortunately quite a big price difference to the simple hanger setup. Though I'm usually willing to trade money for better reliability and future-proofing. Buy once, cry once and all that. I'd be very happy to never have to deal with fuel pump / wiring issues again  
    • The old manifold was quite under the GTR strut brace.  The new manifold is quite [unknown] the GTR strut brace. The GTR strut brace was needed to clear the bonnet vents. The Old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. The old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, and the new bonnet without vents. But I am hoping the GTR strut brace clears the new manifold :p
    • On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.
    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
