Tried searching and even googling but cant seem to find much info beyond here-say.

So i need to go to brighton le sands twice tonight around 6 then 9-10. I havent been there for about 2 years but i do remember there being alot of knobs and coppers defecting. Is it still like that? Gotten worse? Or settled down?

Any tips on streets to avoid would be good!

Cheers

Rob

Not so many defects, but alot of cops, stick right on the speed limit.. you should be right..

they only have maybe 3 cops doing circles at a night, however they now shut off the old prision parking lot..

still plenty of knobs

I'm a resident and i can tell you that if you do the right thing when you drive through, you should be fine... there are still a lot of idiots that come this way just to be hektik but the police know what to look for.

There will be, at that time, a police car at both ends of Bay St. in the hub of BLS.

The right turn on Grand Pde is closed off to deter the "happy lap" culture and three streets that are left turns from the left turn you are forced to take, are closed till 2am. If you want to get back through you'll have turn left AFTER the Shell.

You know about the foggies, and keep the DOOF to a minimum.

That is all.

it was ok i stayed off the main roads for the most part, chick i was picking up knew her way around and could navigate thank f&^k. :banana: did still see a few coppers when on main roads but nothing i couldnt avoid. god brighton is full of scum more than ever.

i dnt get pulled over that often there...if you stick to speed limit and not act like a dick then you're absoultely fine even if you've lot of mods..dnt rev your car unnecessary and be nice to cops if they do pull you over.. i was stopped yesterday arvo for RBT cop looked around told me nice car and let me go..remember to be nice to them since they come accross lot of dicks who ruin their day and you dnt wanna be a victim of their bad mood.

Mars - i seen you car heaps of times mate around 6 pm from rockdale to brighton..do you finish work around that time?

also be careful of unmarked police, i saw afew xr6 fords pulling over some cars just after bay st and after the airport tunnel. usualy bright coloured like orange, green etc.

i went through yesterdayafternoon and had afew coppers behind me, they didnt look twice, if you behave you have nothing to worry about

there after the hoons that fly down bay st to impress chicks with there cannon exhuast and there schick pod filter induction noises :D

I hate driving through Brighton. I usually try to stay away from it. I saw last night coppers everywhere around there (around 11pm) and 3 or 4 had stopped to pull over a yellow EVO right in the airport tunnel. I have been hassled a few times going through there but so far have been only "RBT'D" and been let off...

That's when I see him too but always on my bike so he doesn't see me. Psst, the other day when I saw him the car was dirty. Pass it on. Don't tell who told you.

i drive to brighton and through it almost everyday for the last 2 years, and i have only been pulled up once and that was the 1st day i went there lol, cop sat there for 5 minutes infront of my bar looking at my munber plate hidden inside the bar mouth, came back and let me off. havent been pulled up since, but guys be carefull on friday or sat nights they have rbts on the m5 bout a k out of the tunnel heading towards king georges rd, you will know this cause you will see as soon as you get out the tunnel the speed limit is dropped to 40km lol, do not take the first exit on your right whatever you do, there is a hwy patrol always sitting for defects, i did that 2 weeks ago and lucky some old corola was pulled over with bonnet up. kepp driving straight and sit behind a semi trailer lol if there is one around.

    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
    • The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.
    • Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
