last night on my way home from dinner driving down stud road from dande heading towards rowville i see a cop sitting on the side of the road. i was cruising at 70 car making little to no noise at all and is not a head turner so i just kept cruising without worry. next thing i see him behind me, then on the right lane. i see a flash light and they are shining it at my rear wheels. then the front wheel. they drove next to me for a little bit doing random plate check i guess. then drive up in front and i can see the flash light shining at the tip of my bonnet so im guessing they are looking for a cooler (which i have but its black and its hard to see it at night, even with a flash light)

so then finally they turn the flash light off. i stop at the lights corner of wellington and stud he puts his window down and looks at me so i put mine down as well and says "your lucky your car looks stock or we would still be back there (points towards dande where he was driving next to me) and id be going through your car" all i could say was "ummmm ok" and he drove off.

lazy or new way of checking things??? lol

shining a flashlight at your car while you are driving . . . what would happen if he caused an accident because of this . . .?

nothing... they would simply deny it :D

lol, sounds like you almost wanted the cops to have a look over it.

I guess they were just trying to see if it was worth their effort to pull you over, stop their car, undo their seat belt, put on their hat, lift one fat leg out of the car, lift the other fat leg out...... you see where Im going with this... or just try to blind you with a little flash light at 70kms and cause and accident.... seems fair :D

i would of taken a quick photo then high beamed the pricks !

it would be safer to just pull you over, cause your there trying to drive and ya got some cock with a flash light on your car, are you paying attention to the road or the knob head with the torch !

You would probably get done for high beaming them, then they would go through the car and defect you :P

not just lazy, but useless

just proves there are too many cops on the roads at night. And they have nothing to do so they just go around looking for performance cars to defect (crappy old cars I understand but performance cars ... )

waste of taxpayer money :down:

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Adjusting the idle screw is usually (emphasis on usually) just covering up deeper issues. Stuff like the cold start valve not closing properly. Throttle shaft seals on the way out. Coolant temp sensors getting out of spec. Coolant temp sensors especially can be a bear to diagnose because they can fail subtly. My dad just spent weeks chasing down his high idle. He cleaned the coolant temp sensor and everything but the resistance curve just drifts over time and if it's been 20+ years they also get super slow to respond as well. Has a massive effect on fuel economy as if it's off the ECU is going to run richer and command high idle for far longer than it should otherwise.

      How old is the battery, it's more likely your battery is on its way out.

      I reckon you'd get 90% off. My washer doesn't get between spokes very well. Haha! I love my Gerni!  Argh! Steam cleaning has its place for sure.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      Hey all, I did a voltage test with the car (video attached) not running for 3 days. And here is some interesting stuff: - Battery voltage is 12v (I had the key in the ON position) - Drops to 9.76v while cranking then quickly goes up to 14.5v - You will notice there was a sorta slow start but not as slow as it usually is. - Idle surprisingly was better at just over 1,000rpm instead of 1,100 rpm. - I turned on the A/C, radio and headlights in the video and the voltage remains the same - I haven't cleaned the grounding wires on the chassis yet, that's next. - Battery drops to 12.6v when I turn off the car and wait a bit Seems like I might have a parasitic draw? I do have an immobiliser system which does drain the battery more of course but was wondering if there is anything else I should be looking at fixing? Does the ground wires on the chassis have anything to do with the low 12v?        SAU.avi

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      My lord that is some low oil pressure as minimum in the manual! I guess the big part will be seeing how it changes as the engine gets more spirited use.
