pulled into coles/safeway carpark today and was confronted by the sheriff

i was in my girlfreinds car which aparently had $1650 in unpaid citylink fines

the thing is there was a glitch in the system and the fines were never received in the mail

they wanted to tow the car on the spot, and she never even knew of the fines.

it is all from 7 trips on citylink over a 2 month span

just a warning... they are checking all rego's in the carpark

lol if you dont have unpaid fines etc then it doesn't matter does it? :D

I had a similar issue actually myself from civic compliance many years ago, stuffed if i know where they were sending the notices but i missed a few and they added up with all the stupid fee's and so on.

I know how ya feel :D

that's kinda my point ash, we weren't aware of the unpaid fines, they were from 07 and no notices were ever received....

and now they want hardcore coin.... due to their error... obviously we are fighting it

I dislike this general area. It's the biggest mess of parking signs and meters. Half of it can be parked in and the other half needs a ticket. Narrow one way exists. It's one of the shadiest spots to park your car at night time. Always full of twits just loitering in the carpark with sound systems turned up. And I've seen the TMU there going around checking cars on more than one occasion.

I saw cops going over a Skyline there the other night. It was an R32 with a 34 front end. Police asked for engineering certificates. The guy showed them. I actually think he got away without a fine.

So many hoons around there though, so no wonder it's a hot-spot for police.

There's these guys with the plates "DUBAI-1" "DUBAI-2" etc. all the way up to "DUBAI-9"

I see them burning rubber every time I go there.

Broadmeadows is harsh, They blocked of pacoe road with TMU, highway patrol cars and all within 5meters away thers a BLUE mercedes VAN unmarcked in FBI blue, which has a camera and when your car comes past it automatically scans it and checks your rego/unpaid fines and all, and they pull you over and inspect your car for yellow canaries!! theres undercover cop cars all over this northern area mainly broady!! so becareful guys!!! they are heavily strict!!!!! last week broady pulled over 2000cars in 2 days!

I saw Dubai 6 at uni today

Really?

Personally I've only seen 3 of the DUBAIs (2 newish Commodores and one brand new Mercedes) but my friend assures me that they own every plate. :)

Everyone knows not to go to chaps, especially on friday and saturday nights lol

I hate the area, too many drunks and fights

I know what you mean.

That night we were there JD my friend had her car (and about 4 others nearby) broken into. They just smashed a window grabbed what they could and fled. Was parked in a backstreet just off Chapel.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      By Duncan · Posted

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
