my question is every company you deal with have a customer standard mission statement and they are accountable for there customer service

it seems the po po have no customer service training at all

yeah yeah i know they see dead people and all that but if i get a little heated in my workplace i get pulled up and dealt with

i dont realy have any point though just like a toyota aurion

If you had to drive a Holden or Ford around all day you wouldn't be happy would you :(

Go to Logan and see how nice they treat you there..........I hear the attitude of Logan police to modified car owners and just generally are the worst......If your dealing with scumbags all day everyday you would find it hard not to become jaded......

I dont think things getting heated in your workplace compares to being a police officer.......

There are good ones around but their usually the ones that drive past and dont pull you over, so you dont get to see them......

yes i see your point

i just feel if there letting there emotions rule there job .......maybe there not the best possible staff the police have working for them.

ive often been harassed by the po po due to having some "interesting" family members so ive dealt with them on and off for quite awhile and i myself may have developed a scewed point of veiw...

but i just feel there should be a minimum standard of operation and they should be mentaly capable of restraining there emotions and carry out the core of there job.

sorry if i have hurt any of the police reading this but im just a guy that has an opinion :)

cheers

I do feel that we are targeted unfairly sometimes but raw emotion is necessary i believe in a job like that. I think its the instilled hate for modified cars that is unjust. The other day i had a car following me for a fair while. We had a late model 380 go flying past at least 90k's in a 60 and they still decided to pull me over for a license rbt and quick substance check of my car. Surely the speeding car was more of an interesting target not me who had been putting round at about 5 under the limit all day.

The perks of living in surfers I suppose. I would have to say that I get picked on in my civic as well. Not as much but because it has a kit it’s totally a fully sick hoon machine.

I work graveyards in surfers and know a lot of them personally and need to call them occasionally. I hold a lot of respect for police and wouldn’t do their job for twice the pay. If it wasn’t for them I would say that there is a good chance we probably wouldn’t have our cars or home appliances as they would have been stolen long ago. Just wish they didn’t get trained that an exhaust is the root of all evil. :)

PS id never venture down to the spit unless i was ready to de reg my car and make it a track car. As striker said. Going to the spit/hot spots in a serious car is just stupid.

      C-red tuning?

      Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
