I'm just having the obligatory whinge about the cops.

Firstly, I'm crossing Malvern Rd in Malvern coming home from the bottle shop. A very nice R32 rolls past and its prolly the most modded 32 I've ever seen. Red, wingless and rumbling, just spectacular. It cruised past at easily less than 60kmh but a cop on a bike pulls out of a hiding spot and almost runs me down in its effort to pull over this 32 which was doing nothing wrong at all. Then I get to work this morning and read about a so called "Mega Cruise" which turns out to be nothing more than a stakeout. As someone said, that is entrapment.

Am getting paranoid or do the cops have it in for drivers of Imports and performance cars?

shitz.. that is right near my area.. haven't seen them there personally..

cops randomly pulling over cars just makes them angry, it doesn't stop them doing anything. In a way i think it leads to my attitude a bit "**** it, i don't care, i'll just do whatever i like.. because cops aren't acting reasonably anyway so why should i".

yeah..M3's are slow enough cops can catch up them :D

and people wonder why i cheer when cops get shot (sounds harsh but i do)

I mean i so regularly follow cop motorcycles down the Tulla from Melrose drive right down to Flemington road and they are always doing a min of 120. Sometimes as much as 140 with no light noting.

Just greasing cars as they pass them.

So i just follow them a bit behind.

Good luck if they pull me over.

If it's good for the goose it's good for the gander

Wonder how they get off with all these fixed camera's everywhere.

They can't ALL possibly come up with excuses for getting busted.

oh well. that's my thoughts.

if you'd had as much unjust trouble as i have had for what... just driving a nice and on P's, you'd not be to favourable either.

not to mention some other incidents.

just my mentality i guess. I'm all for death penalties and stuff. but i'll stop now before i upset anyone else.

Yeah my Mums cousin owns a new BMW M3 and he's been pulled over a number of times.........for the cops to have a look and ask him to "give it sh*t" or "show us some smoke". I kid you not. Cops actually asking ppl to break the law! Well I think that sh*t is Fu*ked up! But then I guess there are ocasions like the time I was pulled over for spinning my wheels by an unmarked car full of homicide detectives only to be told that I shouldn't do it because there is a highway patrol car just down the road! Go figure! Fu*k the filth!

hence why i stopped :D

but i would agree that a decent looking cars are fully targeted.

Put a sweet car next to a smokey one with visible rust... I have a fair idea who will get the rego place checked first...

it didnt... they think theyre cops... my cousin almost beat the shit out of 2 of them cause they were man handling him when he said he couldnt find his ticket....

they started grabbing him to pull him off the train and he told them to **** off cause he thought he left it on his seat (which he had :)) so they tried wrestling him and he smacked one in the jaw and grabbed the other one and pulled him to his seat and showed him the ticket lmao

was a funny night...

Train ticket inspectors are like parking officers! Both a bunch of wankers. There is gonna be a full investigation into it, and witness from the train asked to make statement! If they r by them self and u say u havent got a ticket they r 2 chicken shit to do anything, and for a farking $10 ticket a group of the wankers bash some1!

I wish i was in that train, with my cricket bat coming home after cricket practise or sumthing!! :)

    • SO whats the deal with this issue? I've read a heap of posts from the infinity owners in the US having full engine swaps done under warranty. Most claims are done on earlier cars than 2019 but I'm sure I've come across claims of 2020 models also having this issue. I like the 400r and Q50Red/S but can't fathom dumping close to 50k on a car with terminal issues!!! 
    • The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.
    • I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.   
    • As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.
    • Yeah car has 110 on the clock. That said the front turbo (that exploded) doesn't seem to be the original, it has a S1 part number but the car is a series 3. Yep, in the cat is where I first found the turbine wheel pieces - a couple decent sized ones, then a whole lot of fragments.  I agree, probably makes sense to upgrade parts that are being replaced. Things like rods would be 'nice' but realistically it seems unlikely they would need replacing. I was hoping that it was a case that they generally f**k up the valves but not the bore, or vice versa. Is it generally the scour damage rather than ceramic bits getting mashed into the piston tops / valves? I tried a search but couldn't find any threads with pics from the guts of a motor that's had this happen.
