only 9 days until christmas. and the police have already stepped up their presence. me and mates in 1 night counted...4 undercover cars= gold aurion, green/yellow aurion, 380, and black BA. and have the plates for all.

plus 2 paddy wagons, 2 squad cars and a couple of bikes.

qld police... keeping the roads safe by forcing cars/drivers off the road

a) Obey the law....end...

Doesn’t happen even if you do obey the law.

Once a Police officer has picked you out from the pack, it will never end. I’ve had my license for only 5 years and I can’t shake any past stigmas Police may have formed about me when I was 17.

It started over how the officer (in his opinion) believe my old man shouldn’t have bought me a skyline for my first car, so we reported him for harassment as he wouldn't leave me alone (see also following me home and opening my electric gates to make sure I was "home for the night). Which started a chain reaction, they do something, and I take the legal avenue and win, so they do something back.

I’m still paying the price for doing that, I can’t drive down the street without being picked on in cars that aren’t even stand outish!

Regardless of what you own or drive, the Sunshine Coast Police are all on a power trips and pick on anyone who comes across as privileged be it true or not.

+1 thats quite a story.. u should film it when they follow u home.

I find the best way to avoid trouble with the boys and girls in blue is to do the following:

1) Don't own an import

2) If you do own an import, do the following:

a) Obey the law....end...

thats in an ideal world man.

but most of us here not only like our rides, but like to modify them. now if we do those things how can we in all seriousness consider ourselves tuners or modifiers...or as the popo say ''hoons''.

now im not saying STOP MODDING YOUR RIDES. just when u do.. be smart about it...keep the industry going. go out later at night.. have 'listenening' technology. keep mods hidden, have scout cars etc.

now my parents brought me up to stand up for myself and im sure many of u are the same. So why should we back off with our shit just because the popo bully us into submission??

Meh,.. i dont like cops,. only when they pick on you,. sometimes its hard to imagine arguing with them,. you could never sometimes win.. abusing the force that they hold is what i hate.

but to be honest,. im sure they are just doing their job,. trying to make the road safer.

I may not like cops but that doesn't mean i hate them... like they say,. obay the law and everyone's happy.

you drive a defectable vehicle ( like myself,. gladly i never get pulled up ) and get pulled up,. then pay the price for not abiding with the law.. its just as simple.

Im glad to say,. my import days are over.. no more cautiously looking for any coppa's while cruising around..! i can simply drive my shit box everyday without worrying for a defect or impounding my supra.. YAY..!

ah you ended up selling ur supra? congrats.

well they arent doing their jobs.. i have been pulled over coutless times for nothing, they do their best to defect me or book me for something. ive heard of many stories of getting booked for stupid things like wind screen wipers not working properly, not indicating out of a round-a-bout etc. like sure there may be the rare normal cop who doesnt know wat he's doing and will just do a little check up and let u pass on by, but there are way too many dick heads that need a good kick in the ass.

    • It's excellent but I'm still breaking it in so I'm not 100% sure where it'll end up. I would say it's about 15% heavier than stock and the smoothness of the slip zone is quite progressive but you need to be a little patient compared to stock or it'll bite hard and stall. Stock I got away with absolutely horrid clutch control. Like I said before I couldn't even tell where the clutch would grab when it was stock so releasing way too quickly without enough revs it would just slip and the revs would drop lower than ideal but that would be the end of it. Currently there's a bit of a nasty clutch judder if I don't apply enough revs + find the exact wrong point of the slip point in the clutch pedal but it feels like it's slowly resolving as I drive it more. I would not recommend the competition clutch unless you really need the extra clamp force. I think this clutch combined with the Nismo operating cylinder is going to be exactly what I want. Enough bite that you need to remember the release point to avoid stalling or rough shifts, but progressive enough that it's not hard to drive by any means and not heavy at all. I tried a "super single" clutch on my friend's 997.2 Turbo 6MT and that was absolutely horrid. It runs an electrohydraulic power steering pump for the clutch power boost so there's zero feedback in the clutch pedal and there was a horrific clutch shudder well after break-in due to the lack of marcel springs or hub springs in the friction disk. It felt like the slip zone was the thickness of a single toe twitch as well so it was almost impossible to avoid stalling it unless you gave it a ton of revs and just dumped the clutch instead of trying to be smooth with it. I was terrified of pulling out in front of traffic. I have also tried some kind of "super single" on an EK9 and that makes this twin plate Coppermix look like a stock clutch. Releasing the clutch pedal even slightly too quickly feels like you're getting rear-ended. The pedal is extremely heavy as well and there's no vacuum assist like the GTR.
    • Yeah, well I was probably way underguessing the $300 figure anyway. Just multiplied a "normal" by 4 for the purposes of pointing out it's not cheap, particularly if it has to be repeated.
    • We have an alignment shop out here that does what you're talking about but he wants like 800 AUD a pop. DIY is "cheaper" but once you start accounting for the value of your time I'm not sure it's worth it.
    • The main catch phrase for any car is "the eye of the beholder", and "personal tastes and preferences" And as for the plastic "flares", I honestly think they look cheap and tacky, and I cannot see them aging well, maybe if they were body colour they might look better to my eyes, but, I would still prefer it the were more like the older WRX STI models that had the wider body metal panels In saying all this 5hit, I wouldn't buy a new WRX again, even if it had the wide body metal panels
