perhaps that explains why the last few day a group of street draggers seem to have moved into our area, last few nights have been absolutely nuts - extremely loud on Friday night.

They followed me tonight to see if I put on a burst of accelleration or not up a skinny dark side street tonight and then did a u-turn after I accelerated like a normal car. 5 minutes later going back saw this same p car pulled up a yellow TR7 with a FMIC!

Watch how you drive and keep your exhaust quiet at low revs.

Seems to me that every time any car incidents happen in my area - particularly where the mega rich and a whole bunch of upper middle class people in Southern side of Sydney live - the laws get changed or the police have a blitz.

Bloody 10%ers.

Sorry I won't say where.

Someone tell me is this blitz a Labour party initiative - what is Liberals stance on driver fines speed camera style revenue raising ? I thought liberal were the ones getting way too tough with their laws.

Speed cameras and speeding fines are proof of government corruption.

??.

Do you have to carry your compliance certificate papers?

How much is a defect fine, and if you replace the offending defected part, is the fine eliminated?

Nope. The plate in the engine bay is enough.

The fine depends on what's wrong and the kind of mood that the cop is in. I think most are around $74, but don't quote me on that....The fine is not eliminated after you clear the defect. You still have to pay it.

I was outside the coogee palace and saw a cop car next to mine in the parking lot (paddy wagon). I asked him whats all the commotion about and why there are sooo many highway patrol out. He said to me is that your car (pointing to mine), after saying yes he told me that he would not even reccomend me to drive it home and leave it there till tomorrow mourning.

    • Like I said, "black magic" LOL In the end,  it is what it is, and hopefully, what this here knuckle head has done is an improvement and not a hindrance Not that I actually notice any negatives now, or that I will get any seat of the pants benefits when all is said and done, but best practice says I shouldn't be pulling intake air from the hot engine bay  Famous last words: I cannot see it being any worse than what it is at the moment 馃
    • If the gases flowing in those two tracts had the same properties, you could maybe use such broscience. But the exhaust has a different composition, different normal density, different actual density (because of different normal density, and mostly because of the massively higher temperature), and different viscosity (again because of much higher temperature). Consequently, all of the fluid dynamics parameters that matter, that you calculate from these inputs, such as the Reynolds number, friction factors (for wall friction) and so on, are all incomparable.
    • And we shall have to presume that Canada is the same?
    • In the US almost everything is E10. It can't exceed 10% by much or fuel systems have trouble adapting. At the same time because MTBE, MMT, and TEL are all banned they need as much ethanol in it as possible to boost octane.
    • I was mostly jesting. In my experience (and probably only my experience) the R34 GTT physical airbox space is actually too small to flow the amount of power it wanted. By sealing the box, I made it so it could only be fed by the ducts themselves. So you can seal it up and get nice cold air which IS good, but at a certain crossover point: More Hot Air > Less Cold Air I don't think you're at this point. In my case merely ducting the hot air intake with a very focused set of ducts counteracts the fact it's in a V8 engine bay. More cold air obviously best. The solution looks great.
