Hope you didnt miss the camera car in the 90 zone yesterday south bound!

Doesn't count... he is always there... It's either the straight between Mooney bridge & Mt White weigh station, the bend in the 90 zone, or at Jolls bridge either on the left tucked away in the breakdown telephone spot or the between the wall in the middle............anyways I am usually doing the speed limit or at the most 5km over..just not worth it these days......

Its just like a fixed speed camera that damn wagon - its always there! ... oh and don't forget parked in the line of cars at Kariong after the servo...

They have camera cars in NSW!? I didnt know that!

I saw a Highway Patrol car yesterday in my travels, was waiting behind it at a set of lights, and you can see on the back parcel shelf that there's a camera on a small stand with all the wiring and stuff, and I could just make out the silhouette of one mounted on the dash at the front too...

they've been doing the whole camera thing for over 2 years at least.

whenever i get pulled over i always get out of my car, i get nervous/defensive if someones talking down to me for some reason and i end up nervously giving out jabs or babble on about stupid shit. so i get out and they always say, 'mate, just remember we've got a camera in the car, ok?'.

they probably didnt make enough money booking people over the easter weekend.

Correction... They got me defected over that certain weekend lol :( Cost me over a grand to fix everything up and still haven't paid my fines! :)

Was driving home from work at 3am in the morning down Epping road just off the Princess Highway underpass heading towards Lane Cove. Doing the speed limit, saw a HWP car going in the opposite direction. I look in the rear view and...yes you guessed it - he did a u-turn.

Followed me for a few hundred meters and then decided to flash his blue and reds.

Out of the car and he says..."good morning sir, random breath test.."

MY @RSE RBT!!

How can it be random when he did a u turn and then followed me for so long?

But i drive a Skyline, so i cant expect any better from our law enforcement officers. Good on you boys!

Yeah along that rd epping rd, they do alot of "random" breath tests, my brother is a red p plater driving a mazda 323 sp20 and they came flying out of a side street and pulled him over for a "random" breath test and pretty much anytime at night a red p plater is driving in our area they seem to automatically pull you over - fair enough as this will hopefully drive home the message about getting caught but they are in the same boat as us.... Mind you none of the police pull me over when they see me like last night a paddy wagon on my way home thru gosford caught up to me at a set of lights in the other lane then followed slowly for like 2mins... then gone... 3 mins later he re-appeared in the same lane and drove past me - Was full on expecting to be breath tested or pulled over but nah they musn't like the 4 doors lol

I was pulled over for an RBT thurs night at hornsby heights, im a good boy so was all good :(

Oh, and saw two XR6 highway patrols (unmarked and marked) race a plane today!

each time the xr6 turbos won! :P (true story!)

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
