For a while now we all know about the crackdown on hoons, booze buses, drug testings ect...

but what i been spotting is rather interesting but scary.

last week going to the wheeler's was at traffic lights when unmarked cop pulls up right next to me...driving old ford falcon model ( i dont think ive seen cops driving ford ion very long time)....was a bit worried since i had 1 more person sitting in the middle of the 33..as you know theres no middle seat. but they went by and didnt take notice

then few days ago was at knox and saw under covers driving a toyota orion or camry...

then again i saw another patrol car which was a unmarked holden vt....

only way i realised they were cops was because of the jackets they were wearing and the antena out the back.

just thought id let some of you guys know to be careful as they could be anywhere and you may not take notice. so a warning ..if anyone attempting to do anything in public or around traffic ....look out around you cause cops may be closer than you think now.

i saw a MARKED sukuzi swift cop car 2 days ago in dandy. and im seeing alot more territory's along stud road / dandy area. i loled when i saw the swift all done up with the sirens n marked car. you just dont expect to see it! but atleast its good there doing a crackdown. get few nutcases off the road i guess.. lol

there are policemen who don't work in the TMU, most of whom couldn't give a rats arse about your car. Plus policemen do own normal cars that they drive to and from work while wearing their jackets.

yeah thats true aswel except with the orion/camry they pulled someone over and falcon had lights and gadgets still in it...duno about the vt though.

but still...theres a crackdown so everyone should be careful these days.

There is going to be a MASSIVE crack down due to operation RAID. We had a station meeting and our S/SGT has told us basically to fine everyone and do as many PBT's as possible as every stations stats are going to be examined by extremely highly ranked members.

So in next few weeks don't expect any warnings to be given.

isn't operation RAID more to do with breath tests and drug tests? that shouldn't make guys in sports cars any bigger targets than someone in a regular car should it?

i am sure the information given is detering some drivers from acting up, so therefore having a positive effect... if the higher powers are pissed off about that, f**k em.

and people complain that this guy is a cop... srsly wtf?

thanx for the heads up graeme :blink:

apparently dont know if anyone knows i red a article in go auto news basically saying very soon cops will be driving in victoria with wrx and hsv clubsports unmarked with p's on them trying to drag people and all that but the only good thing is ,is that the cops in the car will be wearing policy uniform

I've regularly seen an undercover corolla (grey?) sitting on Mont Albert road with speed cam attatched, very sneaky.

Also there is regularly a older falcon wagon (cant remember if it was green or maroon) on Warrigal road towards the Canterbury road end.

*In the voice off the add* POLICE ARE EVERYWHERE.

man under cover or not..there are cops everywhere......tonight in taylors lakes i spotted about 6 marked and 1 undercover using the speed gun...spotted 3 marked cars in the matter of a minute.

    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • 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.
