Yeah but with that story on rann, they ran another web based poll and 9/10's said he'd be out next election - disatisfaction with the Rann govt is widespread at the moment, so again, 'tell him he's dreamin'

-D

Didn't see that one. Well the pollies might back him for another 10 years but it's the voting public who have the final say so you're right, tell him he's dreamin' :)

so the police now use youtube and internet forums to do their job? dont they realise how much bs gets posted on the net?

like mentioned earlier, today tonight pull a feature on adelaide hills "drift racing" footage that turned out it was from the streets of japan, f**k there was even japanese lettering printed on the roads in that vid!

and with the idea of helping change police/media views on imports, that would be like me saying lets help politicians be honest, it isnt gonna happen.

its the fools out there doing stupid shit like burnouts/drift in the suburbs that ruin it for the sensible drivers that understand there is a time and a place for it, and its not on public roads. i agree we need a drag stip and somewhere that holds regular drift meets, like other states. but here in sa we get a revenue camera on every intersection instead!

Anyway I don't care about defects/blitzes/hoon laws, I have a 100% stock car that I drive like a pensioner

+1 for me too :)

u will prob find that when u get caught at a redlight speed camera u will now get defected also via the mail...

hahahahhaah

not long before you can get defected for not folding toilet paper in a certain measurement

or if you fart over a certain db

I remember reading an article about noise cameras that detect cars that are too loud take a picture of the said car and send a fine to the owner.

My arse got defected! :):)

Haha, apparently it works like a normal speed camera but has a series of microphones to pick up sound and is triggered by sounds over a certain decibel. I can't remember what they said about placement but I'm pretty sure they only have them in the eastern states.

to take a snap of an unrego'd car we'd need to have implemented an e-rego system. electronic licence plates basically, youd be detectable at every set of lights, ever revenue camera, etc.

+1 Dave. +1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111

111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 I can't actually type the amount of 1's I'd like to.

I used to work opposite that Advertiser building. I was sure to give the building a angry glare now and again.

it wouldn't be too hard to build character recognition into a camera linked to transport SA so when a plate triggers a non reg flag the registered owned gets a nice letter with tickets to the ball

lol madaz many yrs ago i got pulled over and the copper said do you know why i pulled you over ? i said to give me tickets to the policemans ball ..... he replied your getting a ticket alright son but you wont be dancing lol

seemed funny at the time tho

It seems the imports are the flavour of the month! Guess they've given up on shutting down the bikies, so now we're next on the hit list :D

A few years ago it was Harley's that were too loud! Before that they picked on the V8 boys! Before that they picked on horses with noisy shoes :(

After talking with a mate who happens to be a cop, even he said its crap! He said they need to pick up the smoke blowing rust buckets with bald tyres, not us import drivers who in most cases modify our cars to improve them and modify them more safely than the commonwhore or falcoon drivers!

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
