did any1 else on here enjoy the police blitz thru caboolture as much as i did.

i saw 1 highway patrol and 2 unmarked police cars north bound, south of caboolture, and 3 normal

cars south bound 2 the north of caboolture, all with their speed guns out, spaced about 1 klm apart.

also saw about 4 driving around in caboolture pulling random ppl over.

i thought it was good because they were all occupied when i drove by them. yay.

still haven't been pulled over. (touch wood) ;):):laugh:

When it comes to police the only thing it is illegal for them to do is causing physical harm to another being in a case other then self defense. When it comes to traffic laws they are allowed to do anything that they feel is fit to do. In a instance of them being a mere k apart it would be considered smart thinking on there behalf, because a lot of us all think when we pass one car we are not likely to run into another for a while, you would be surprised how many people do get pulled over for this kind of thinking.

Little bit of a different situation but... Isn't there some law about them being set up too close to a fixed camera though?

Because aren't a lot of those fixed cameras only there due to that location is a hot spot and too dangerous for a police vehicle to be parked?

I might be totally wrong tho :nyaanyaa: lol

No infact as stated they are able to set up like that purley becuase people slow down for camera then speed up again, i don't like it but they can do it.

The best one i ever saw was on the way to work one day 1 car in the truck inspection station on ramp at burbengary then a k up the road another car in the emergency stopping area and then another 2 k later a camera

duuno what the big thing is here. I'm driving various skyline cars with no front plates( I have a trade plate.) on them right past these guys and they do not flinch

I dont think anyone mentioned anything in regards to number plates...?

Sure puts a stop to "roll on drags as soon as we pass the speed camera" though...lol

sounds like the 'boys in blue' are gearing up for Xmas. they used the same tatic on the M1 on Tue this week. also saw my first ute being used as an unmarked traffic law enforcer on Wed, near Coomera. description: white, holden, '07-'08?, after market wheels and slightly lowered from what I could see. clearly a "sucker car" hoping to activate the adrenal glands of would-be racers!!!.

      Yeah this was also my suspicion, that pineapples exist to reinforce the OEM bushes because people CBF taking the subframe out to do it. Basically that pineapples and subframe lock collars perform the same intended task. The cup still bolts in under the bush/crush tube.. as to how it'll go I don't know. Two of the bushes at the back look mostly the right shape. The ones up front clearly have the impressions left by the pineapples. Time will tell whether this will work/make any difference. Ideally I would not want any lock collars or pineapples, I'd just want the bush to do the job of the bush. Time will tell if the car works correctly with only the poly bushes in the state they're in. Worth seeing, I think.  What panel work are you looking at? I'm shelving everything from the A pillar forward because it's shit/doesn't function and this was before I drove off at the track and then drove into somebody! A second hand Reo and brackets is $1000, which is just cray when Mr.Hammer turns this piece of metal in regular metal shape.. considering it needs to be drilled to be adapted to the GTR headlight brackets anyway... So I'm all for $0 instead of $2000 (new 34 GTR reo) for the same result lol.

      I think he's already demonstrated that that's the way he's treating it post the paint jail release.

      Yep that makes sense, thanks! I guess flogging these turbos in winter is more preferrable lol.

      Bahahaha, bloody hell Greg. You've got bent and broken things, but instead, you're replacing perfectly good items. This story keeps getting more gregged!   Also, I'd 100% replace that reo if I were in your shoes, unless you panel beater is REALLY good. Even if you put another GTT one on there. Just because you've done so much nice body work lately, I'd say repair the body work fully  If it were more drift car spec, I'd be all "Hit it with a hammer and send it!"
