i've had cops and regular joe's do that to me. i tap the brakes a couple of times but it doesn't seem to work.

speaking about brake lights - i hate it when cabs tap the brakes and tail gate, it shits me cos it is confusing (don't wanna single out cabbies, but they are the only ones i recall ever doing it)

having said that, i've been on the other side and tailed other people, but i don't tail them to annoy them, i want to get past them.

guys, you drive skylines - unfortunately it goes with the territory

I know it sux, but thats the way it is.

Case in point - taking photographs at Homebush Sunday night, and a divvy van drives in with two cops in it. You can bet your ass that if the cars being photographed were a bunch of skylines or other HPI's the shit would have hit the fan.

The cops looked and saw an Audi A3, Cooper S, Golf GTI, and TT Roadster. They just engaged reverse and drove straight back out. We were there for over an hour - even the local security guys drove in and out and didn't say anything...

and people wonder why I drive what I do... :D

WARNING

New Unmarked Highway Patrol unit in Menai and southern suburbs, patrolling southern sydney

brand spanking new BLACK SS COMMODORE, full highway patrol unit, looks like the car ya neighbour drives, including rear wing, and full SS bodykit, V8 badges...

WATCH OUT

I was talking to the 2 cops in the Menai Subway queue this arvo, and acted like a goody goody to get some info, and they were operating out of sutherland, patrolling the Sutherland shire, and St George areas, targeting street racing, illegally modified cars, and young drivers (that means they are the P patrol).

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS - they seemed like heavyweights, likely to push you around to make a bust.

Just a friendly warning from Son of Sydneykid

We where there a group of about 10 skylines taking photo's there and we got told to move on because it is illegal to take photo's there. When we moved they continued to harrass us and threatend to fine us !!

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
