One more thing arose out of my trip north of the border - WHO'S BRILLIANT IDEA WAS IT TO MAKE THE SECTION OF FREEWAY BETWEEN BROOKLYN AND MT WHITE A 90 ZONE? and WHY? You can scream down the other side (from Syd to Brooklyn) at 110, but you can't do it from Mt White? What kind of twits do you guys have setting speed limits up there? (probably related to the twits in Vic who put double white lines on a straight piece of road, and then switch to a single broken line as you approach, and drive around, a blind curve)

there is no camera there. the only camera on the freeway is @ Ourimbah as you come down the hill. It is very well marked and you can see it any time of day on ur left. I believe it also gets traffic coming up the hill on the other side as it's infrared.

Just remember if u speed through @ night and there is no flash, you will still get done

You reckon that's FUBAR? I'll tell you what's FUBAR! The old set of traffic lights on the M5 at Moorbank! 110 to 80 then to a red light. There were so many accidents cause traffic would build up to the 110km/h section and people flying would have to jam on the brakes from 110 to 0 when they realise there is a traffic jam.

Finally someone grew a brain and removed them.

it 90 cause of the speed different between truck and cars there

and alot of up the bum no babies crashes

also why does everyone sit in the middle lane there? (left lane is always the quickest up the hill)

dont the rules say keep left unless overtaking

"not in the ***n middle"

im going up tomorrow so ill check the shiet out...

but as far as i have seen tosh is right.... only the one at ourimbah which is clearly marked and easily seen... (on left if going towards newy)

other than that the other cams are just traffic cams...

though soetimes in that 90 zone they have coppers hidden in the twisty bits with big stone faces.... me and franks almost got caught but thankgod the car in front was doing the limit or KABOOOOOOm boost would have gotten us in trouble...

I've travel the F3 from the Coast to Sydney every day and the only camera is heading North Bound near Ourimbah.

There is no camera in the 90K zone from Mt White to Hawkesbury only the RTA Monitoring cameras.

The reason it's a 90 Zone, is that of the entire freeway, that particular section goes from 2 lanes to 3 lanes so many times that there was always cars trying to outrun trucks before they merged and there was always accidents. While there are no FIXED cameras in the 90 Zone, there is pretty much always a mobile unit.

Oh, and the sign that says, "Keep Left unless overtaking", that IS law, you can get booked for not keeping left, as I found out on the M4 on Boxing day 2 years ago heading up to the Blue Mountains. on the fine under the offence it said "Disobeying the Keep left unless overtaking sign" $180 and 2 points later.

The length 90km/h zone on the F3 is classed as a "Black Spot". I know its hard to believe that that section is a black spot but having attened some of the prangs there its justified.

The speed camera at Ourimbah can only get nth bound traffic, same as all speed cameras due to privacy laws they cant take a pic of the front of the vehicle, but, they are trying to change it!

      Nismo 1.5 way Stub axle issue

      It depends on what the guy who bought its Ratio is. Mine is a 4.36 Jus Jap told me anything above a 3:9 has equal length shafts which the Nismo center's shafts were not.

      If those shafts in the last 2 photos are the ones that came with the diff, you have no hope of fitting the other ones because they are completely different

      Nismo 1.5 way Stub axle issue

      By OO Dan OO · Posted

      I have recently fitted a Nismo GT Pro Center second Hand buy still in the box i got stubs with it but they are 5 bolt and I need 6 (3x2) I was told by Just Jap that for a 4:36 ratio the stub axles are equal length sku 38220-0V161. They didn't have any in stock but I picked up the ones pictured. The one with 5 bolt are the ones that came with the LSD. The right side went in no issues but the right....I have happened the fk out of it put it in a press and it still sticks out about 5mm too far. It was sticking out about 25mm but after bashing it like Chris Brown did to Rhianna I managed to get it a bit further in but seems stuck again now. Any ideas? Should I just leave it 5mm out and send it?

      Nismo copper mix twin “pull” pedal height engagement

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The clutch pedal has a procedure for adjustment. This can only be done after you are 100% sure the system is absolutely free of air bubbles. You must bleed the clutch master cylinder first, then the "separation pipe" which is the clutch damper line, then the operating cylinder as detailed in the service manual. Also, you must fully depress the clutch pedal between shifts. Just because you can't feel it grabbing does not mean the input shaft is truly decoupled from the crank. At high RPM clutch plates are vibrating and moving around, you need to give it the best possible chance of success. On the BCNR33 Nissan revises these adjustment procedures slightly but not by much: I would be careful with trying to play games with these adjustments. As for the Nismo operating cylinder they say a lot of things. In practice the twin plate clutch needs less movement on the clutch fork to disengage because the whole stackup of the flywheel + friction plates + pressure plate is much taller. Personally if you find that the clutch still disengages too high at the top of the travel I would try the Nismo operating cylinder. Make sure to follow the air bleed procedures.
