Tonight when i was driving around totally lost in cannington sort of area lol, on my way home from Pot Black, i was driving out of a mcdonalds parking where someone in what i think was a 300ZX had been pulled over by some cops in an SS commodore. I had to give way to a couple of cars, so i was sitting there looking straight at this scene. The cop outside of the car looked at me for awhile and then pointed at me and made some hand motion which i now think was indicating me to pull over. Anyway i didnt realise and just pulled off. A little while later i was stopped at a traffic light and the same cops pulled up next to me. They were checking me out the whole cycle until our light turned green and we got going. About a minute up the road the cop changed lanes and came up behind me. Eventually they turned their lights on and flashed me, so i started pulling over. As we came to a stop on the side of the road, the cops turned their lights off and took off down the road...

I was left there wondering where the hell i was and what the hell just happened lol. Ive decided i dont like cannington lol.

Moral of the story: Dont buy TomTom navigation systems lol

Really? ive used most sat nav's and found the TOMTOM's to be the best ones :) clear with where your going and they dont get lost themselves unlike most others, i always turn off the volume and just read the map though because the voice can sometimes confuse haha

Ive got a TomTom ONEXL and it totally gets lost with itself lol. Starts tripping out and doesnt know where you are, thinks youre driving through a paddock. I was going along a bridge once and it told me to turn right... How about no lol. I never have the volume up, disrupts the music

yeah thats dodgy ay. unless its daylight or in a well populated area i wldnt pull over for it.

supposedly your well within your rights to let them know you have acknoledged their presence and then pull over at the next servo.

Id happily go to court and fight that rather than be hit over the head and my car stolen :)

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.

      Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
