Cops Defecting Around Terrigal This Thurs/fri Night And Next Thurs/fri Night


Recommended Posts

I heard from a reliable source that the cops will be setting up a defect station at the Haven, Terrigal this Thursday & Friday night and next Thursday & Friday night. I believe that this includes emissions testing, but dont quote me on that. Lights will be set up, and unmarked police cars will be sent out to pick up modified cars and escort them back to the Haven for testing.

I never ever drive my car on a Thursday, Friday, Saturday night due to this possibility, but for those that do, watch out on the above mentioned nights.

Thanks for the heads up mate.

It's this time of year they make the haven a defect hole. I've seen them drag cars from past West Gosford Maccas all the way to the haven just to defect/EPA them.

Yeah, hopefully ill get down there for a look. Ive gotta work both nights, but maybe ill take the Ambulance down if we've got no jobs. Im gonna warn anyone who isnt acting like an idiot too.

You need to change the heading to SYDNEY WIDE. Because the police will be everywhere this weekend, this is a special test for the xmas holiday workup. So inform people t drive the Grandma CAR...LOL

yes it did.

there were a stack of unmarked police cars cruising around...

it was surprising how many cars they did pull over

spoke to guy in a blue silvia who was getting his car checked out, he was a good guy

says he gets a lot of interest from the police...

definately the best car of the night though

Extra heavy Sydney wide all day patrols were announced and started last Saturday, ostensibly targeting drink driving. They will be doing this for 4 weeks. Note, not during Christmas itself.

The intention is to make people feel they should not drink and drive this Christmas holidays by driving home the message of police presence in the weeks leading up to Christmas.

    • So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
    • Stop looking at the garage floor, and turn the radio up a bit louder if there's any strange noises...
    • No. Turbo shuffle and surge/flutter are not the same thing. Specifically, on a GTR, turbo shuffle has a definite meaning. On a GTR, the twin turbos are assumed to be the same thing and to operate the same way, exactly. In reality, they do not. Their exhaust sides are fed and exhaust a little differently, to each other. Their inlet sides are fed and exhausted a little differently, to each other. Consequently, when they are "working" they are often at slightly different points on the compressor map compared to each other. What this means, particularly when coming on boost, is that one of them will spool up and start producing extra flow compared to the other, which will put back pressure on that other compressor, which will push the operating point on that other compressor up (vertically). This will generally result in it bumping up against the surge line on the map, but even if it doesn't, it upsets the compressor and you get this surging shuffle back and forth between them That is "turbo shuffle" on a GTR. It is related to other flutter effects heard on other turbo systems, but it is a particular feature of the somewhat crappy outlet piping arrangement on RB26s. There are plenty of mods that have been attempted with varying levels of success. People have ground out and/or welded more material into the twin turbo pipe to try to prevent it. Extending the divider inside it works, removing material doesn't. There are aftermarket replacement twin turbo pipes available, and these exist pretty mush purely because of this shuffle problem.
    • You can temporarily* use lock collars to keep it in place until you can do the bushes, back the nuts off, slide them in, snug back up. *temporarily is often for ever
