Hi

I have heard recently there will be extra police presence around service station establishments in the south eastern suburbs due to excess drive offs and unregistered vehicles in the area

Service stations around Dandenong, Hallam, Endeavour Hills, Narre Warren and a few other neighbouring suburbs will have extra police, mostly undercover cars patrolling service stations

It was due to start on the 14th of July and I have already seen a few hanging around near the exits of service stations in my area

Just a heads up for everyone

Thanks

Really nice to know i spose that narre was on the top 5 list for hooning

Not Hooning in Nazza Wazza...... Drive offs from petrol stations..... Sharron in her VK commo wagon with her mockies would rather buy a carton of smokes tahn pay for petrol....

happend to me at shell on corner of springvale and whitehorse road.. cop came in, watching me fill up and go and pay... then tried to give me a fine cuz my car was too high powered for a P plater.... I got out of it cuz mines heavier ... GTS4 ftw!!! :D

Great. So is the "hanging around petrol stations" operation a temporary thing or what? I did notice a few more cops on the roads last night then normal.

But then...what's normal?

I was gonna fill up after the meet tonight as well...screw that. I'm gonna fill up in the city instead...

Good ol narre is also the target for hightened police activity in relation to it being in the top 3 for cars seized due to 'hooning'. The operation is running over the periond of 1 month.

What were the top 2?

I went to the casino last night and did notice a lot more cops than normal, normaly see 1 or 2 but saw 6 or 7 last night, half of those had someone pulled over.

Did you just tell them its heavier and they accepted it? or did you need to show some proof etc.

As its the police word over yours if they believe the car is over powered.. :D

I've started to see and hear about some strange cars as unmarked cars. I saw a white VT Commodore (I think that's around the right model, looks right) that pulled over a car. Wasn't nice and shiny like you may expect, was kind of muddy etc.

My sister said she saw a Toyota Kluger too.

I'd say you were lucky more than anything. If it was a TMU guy he'd know A) gts4 would be fine, as it's a non-turbo, and B) to book you for running a modified engine if it's the turbo conv in his sig.

Mate I have nightmares about the TMU.... I am so sh*t scared... I could not afford all the issues...

Yeh we argued for a while..... cuz on his little shitty specs sheet of cars he likes to pick up it didn't have a GTS4... and up until recently I never thought there existed a standard R33 GTS4 turbo model.... but then I was at autobarn the other day and started talking to one of the guys.... turns out when he used to live in NZ he owned one....never ever seen one here...

so he didn't know what to do... so I told him, why don't you take the power from a standard gtst and use the weight of a gtr.... he didn't even know how to do the equation! so i did that for him aswell! turns out according to those numbers the car was legal ( i know it was bs...)

he took down my details and said he would call me if he went back to the station and looked up the specs of my car and saw that I was lying.... I told him its a really rare skyline and you wont find the details......

I never heard back from him :laugh::D:D:D:D:D

If I was you, I'd disconnect all your phones or else 3 points + $1100 fine if he calls you back :laugh:

    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
