I too have seen the above mentioned, ver sneeki

the black SS VE ute followed me for a bit the other day, had 2 short blond haired 40yo butch looking females in it... blergh!

in melbourne there was a VW transporter with a boosted 5 cyl engine, had roof racks and plumbers pipe on the roof...

in sydney apparently they can use impounded vehicles, as well as P plates proven when i saw a guy get pulled over in a VT 2000 model VT SS coomonhore, with green p plates!

If they REALLY wanted to do some damage... use AU Falcon taxis with 400kW typhoon F6 running gear

Just a note on the Landcruisers especially those with steps and bull bars, mostly they are operated by the AFP not ACT policing. They are primary tactical response cars and VIP escorts full of bad mo fo's with MP5's M4's and body armour... spose that makes them even more appealling to avoid.

I was 'random' (joke) breath tested the other evening by a black mitsu Colt working with a black falcon, out of the tuggeranong station, both unmarked. The bugger in the colt followed me from the jerra round-a-bout along the monaro, up long gully road (where i dropped my speed to 65-70 to make him overtake me) and out onto yamba, where he pulled me up and radio-ed the falcon for the breathaliser.

Apparently some of the commodore utes have strange looking alluminium roll bars which try to cunningly disguise the flashies.

Spotted a dark blue Falcon station wagon, with disco lights going off inside, pulled over booking someone a few days ago on Hindmarsh.

There are plenty of different unmarked cars around.

wether or not they do traffic duties is another question.

exactly

at my birthday party 3 weeks ago two of my friends (one a girl..) went for a walk with a baseball bat to hit a ball on the oval at about 11:30pm (weird i know) n when they were walkin back to the house one of these big 4wd's with bullbars n spottys n the works pulled em up asked why they were walkin round with a baseball bat...

they said they didnt believe they were cops from the car they were driving but they had lights n all...

    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
    • Foreshadowing was never so easy.
    • The ones in brackets are the first stages of tightening. I usually aim for the middle of the range. They give a range because it's actually not that critical to hit exactly the right bolt tension. Enough is enough, and too much is too much, and the range given is inside that range. Half of the bolts in the suspension are problematic for putting a torque wrench on anyway, so just get done up to mechanic tight  and spanner checked a week later.
    • Is the problem that we just disconnected the line, does it need to be plugged? I’d rather not buy another master cylinder
    • Clutch is same same. Tailshaft is not. Diff will drop in. Half-shafts will not mate up (5x1 on turbo, 3x2 on NA). There is also the strong possibility that your auto NA gets its speed signal from the sensor on the diff, not the gearbag, and that will leave you without a speedo. You can do all this, you just have to do a lot more than you thought.
