I haven't been pulled over by much police but the ones i have encountered have been a dog to me, even though for petty little offenses like driving with a expired license ( i was overseas for a few months, didn't realize my license renewal in the mail ) and not wearing a seat belt.

To this day i have yet to come by a decent chilled out officer who i could perhaps have a normal chat with even when i am receiving a fine... until that time, i will always view them as nothing more than bandits on power trip with a massively inflated ego. Im sure there are some calmed/down-to-earth ones out there but the ratio in between is large.

Sorry to get off topic..

I disagree with that opinion they are only doing their job..i think its all a matter of respect you respect them they respect you back.. I was able to sit down whilst being drug tested the other day and chat with an officer for about 10mins whilst be drug tested..just spoke shit said he loved the skyline..told me to be careful cause it was a lil loud then rattled off all the reasons whilst the drug test are so inaffective.. lol was actually quite funny...

i also managed to have a chat with another one a few weeks ago at my local pub whom has just come to break up a fight..maybe it where im from eastern suburbs (nopt the city etc) maybe there a lil more chilled out.. i dont know.. I even had the cop who pulled a gun on me not long ago apolgoise to me a day later..so yeah..

I wouldnt sweat over it, I drive around melb alot on my job. and have noticed the odd Undercover in plain cloths pullin people over, not just modified cars.. or cars that look in anyway conspicuous, its just the oinkers bored out of their minds. with no doghnuts, serving their community proudly.

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!

      Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.

      Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.

      Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...

      Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
