Alright people i was just travelling along wuduru road in mt cotton and i passed a champagne nissan patrol, that had no signage or police stickers.

It looked a bit suss so I did the U banger and went back to have a look and ended up chatting to one of queenslands finest for the last 20 minutes.

Apparently the amazing queensland government are trialling 3 new unmarked radars, but he could only tell me he thought one of the others was a blue van :dunno:

These new unmarked cars do not need to have any signs present, and you won't even notice them. So it doesn't pay to speed... :D

Just thought I would let everyone know

cheers

Do any of you watch the news? Round christmas they were warning everyone that speed cameras where now going to be unmarked in 2009 AND more hand held detectors will be carried on board cars. they are trying to stop people ringing people and warning them about speed camera's, to try an catch more people to raise money so they can upgrade the area they hold there christmas party. They think that this will make people more cautious when diving because you will never know what a camera car is going to be next. Black mercede vans are the only ones i have seen unmarked so far.

And the general public are mostly behind it. You only get caught if you are doing something wrong.

Yep and real criminals get off or serve minimal sentences.. You gotta wait hrs for police to turn up to a real crime (if the do at all)..

and to top that off the police braeak laws all over the place.. Speeding, parking in Loading docks or DO NOT PARK.. places... All to get their food to feed their fat guts..

once again reference to the "growing road toll" even my nephew could figure out that the road toll grows in-line with the population growth....there is a baseline % of fatalities each year, it doesn't really change and may actually be less, but that multiplied by a larger population of drivers = a bigger number.

Why are the "top" people in government so thick?

Unmarked speed cameras doesn't stop speeding, it just makes people more resentful.

SPEEDING = Voluntary Tax

Don't want to pay don't speed.......mmmmm could it be that simple.......

This is the sort of simplistic crap we constantly see from Government talking heads, not real drivers.

Do you actually watch your speedo ALL THE TIME????? I know on my recently changed 90k highway, I spend way too much time watching the speedo instead of the road.

Really clever thinking here.......NOT !!!!!!

The rationale is that we go out and buy a new car with cruise control for the straights and hills, and nice big brakes to wear out on the downhills.

Yeah this was published in the sunday mail about 3 weeks ago (round new years)...

I dislike speed cameras as much as everyone else, but unfortunatlly there here to stay...

But i think if you get fined you should get a framed A4 gloss photo for your money :D

I've had one speeding ticket in my life and am now 32yrs old. Ive owned in this order a Nissan Bluebird, VK Wagon, Torana(modded), Ford Laser, Vx ss(modded), VL Turbo(highly modded), Vy ss(modded) and now my skyline(highly modded).

Unfortunately people get done for doing as little as 11k's over the speed limit including Ma and Pa Kettles through to the higher end of the spectrum.

Don't like it move to Vic where there speed cameras (I believe) start at 5 k's over then you can whinge about revenue raising. Pull your hand off it about looking at your speedo all the time. Speed is one of the fatal four like it or lump it.

Speed Cameras are better than no deterrent.....

If you are doing 11k's or more over the speed limit then your not paying enough attention and deserve whats coming to you.

DON'T SPEED = DON'T GET FINED

NOTE ***** IM SORRY I MUST NOT BE A REAL DRIVER JUST A REALIST

Harden up Buttercup!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take your turbo off then :P might save you a speeding fine.

And remember, no 'winding out' on public roads, that's what racing tracks are for.

      yeah, that happens too.  I'm really enjoying 4WDing at the moment, seen a few beautiful spots and want to go explore more of this enormous country.  The 370Z got a clutch LSD in it and a track day, great fun.  Getting the back end sorted out really rejuvenated my enthusiasm for driving it hard, the viscous one is poo especially in such a short and wide chassis.  The VLSD unpredictability was more benign in a long and skinny Skyline.

      With my pre/power I use a remote trigger cable(3.5mm jack each end). I turn tv on, it turns both on via ARC. Or, just the pre with the remote or its streaming software, turns on both. Not that difficult at all. Obviously,  you would also want to actually update/upgrade over other factors in your life(bills, family, other hobbies, etc)

      Yeah, nightfall was very "meh". And I'm crap at pvp, so feels like everyone has cheats(it's just my lack of skill). Final shape has been pretty good. New raid and dungeon are pretty good. If you want to give it a go, probably wait until it's on sale. But, as usual, most of it feels very familiar.

      What Music Are You Listening To?

      This morning was Kingswood's Microscopic Wars. It is the album's 10 year anniversary this year and we went to see them play the whole album as a special show a couple of months back. Was pretty spectacular.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Yeah I would like to try and get a ADM car to reduce issues with insurance. I've decided if I end up getting this car I will set it up to be a sleeper build, leave it looking stock/dad spec on the outside I wonder if you can just drop in the 400r/Red/Z ECU or better still use a flashing tool to copy the map off one. Backup the factory map and then flash the 400hp cars onto the 300hp cars ECU?
