The British Police have had many many performance cars over the years particularly different counties where street racing etc was more prevelent. ^^

That "photoshopped" Evo doesnt look too disimilar to how I would expect one of the FQ range to look out of the UK. :(

Why is Dezz the only one here who gets it?

P R O M O T I O N A L

MMA supply the cars, some drunk guy with Paintshop does the decals (apparently) and the Hammers use these cars for city and central urban traffic duties.

Why? They stand out, people look, people see POLICE.

Same way people sticker up Smarts or Hummers (or Aston Martins) - so they are noticed and seen.

My brother was in charge of marketing for HSV when they provided the GTO to VicPol.

There was no cost at all to the Police - it gave HSV a chance to have their car seen (and talked about) and for the Police to have something flashy and prominent to help create a visible presence.

Expect to see this car heading up booze busses on St Kilda Rd, running traffic support for public events, and pulling over people on mobiles driving through the city.

Alan - MMUK FQ cars already out:

If you truly were awesome, you'd want a drive of the Superleggera.

Its like f*cking the sexiest chick in the world while you watch and high-five yourself at the same time - then someone kicks you in the kidneys, and the cycle begins again.

Left Autosalon on sunday as we got to the lights we saw the evo x cop car so we sped up, we finally got next to it and the cop puts down his window and goes hey boys what you think? we put our thumbs up said looks fkn sick man! we talked about the car for a while and he said its the best car he has ever driven and that he cant believe hes getting paid to drive it then when the lights turned green he floored it back went down off they went leaving a trail of smoke had to be the best cops i have come across so far since i have been driving they were just smiles and were happy to be out there and were not dick heads. We need more of these cops on our roads with an appreciation of Japanese cars!

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
