I couldn't convince the policeman that my car couldn't possibly do the speed he was suggesting... lol

well in regards to this topic i read in the daily telegraph yesterday or the day before that the Cessna hasn't even left the ground. Because of the bad weather its been grounded meaning it hasn't even made the government any money yet :P

I know I am necro-ing an old post, but I saw the plane in action on Jan 2nd or whatever day it is that everyone heads from Sydney to Can'tberra for Summernats... flying low above the Hume near Cambotown...

The used to have the lines on the road, but in the news reports when they announced they were re-starting the P!gs in Space force they mentioned new technology, so I assumed they were now using laser or radar...

It is actually a good deterent to speeding, because you never know if you are safe... lots of drivers just slow down for the permanent cameras and then speed up (like I do :banana: ) or rely on their 'lightning quick reactions' to see and slow down for a car with a hair dryer... at least P!gs in Space actually slow down drivers all the time...

My old Scout Leader used to fly the original plane (he is a cop and a pilot), and actually not a bad bloke... he was Air Wing, not Highway Patrol, so that might explaing why he wasn't a tnuc... and he never tried to penetrate my arse or anyone I know either (just getting in before some other smart arse does :()...

OK they're operating now on the M4.

The flight path is such that whatever direction you're taking E or W, the little plane is slightly to your left when going the same direction as yourself.

I just sit in lane #2 now and watch 2/3 of the world go by.

Q. So how many speed violaters has this plane caught in 4 months?

A. 16 and counting...

Some of you far-sighted SAUers can now say, "I told you so"

    • Interesting, I've heard complete opposite on my end. Bit of a lottery I guess.
    • Getting Dangerously close to being ready to go back in the car. Rockers in with clearance castings now (and a quick check with the USA for the torque settings for the larger custom bolts) Covers and ported FAST Manifold sitting on there. Not fully tightened down as there's some clearancing required for the water pump with the earlier LS1 water pump styles. Example of the clearancing needing to be done: The body has to be ground a little but I'm struggling finding an actual piece of it. The later variant of water pump resolves the issue as the manifold was designed around it. It only came on the VZ LS1 in Australia, it got a different pulley for Gen4 motors. (it also costs $450... vs... $0).

    • Doing some height adjustment on front suspension on a v35 and noticed this. The passenger side looks correct. So wondering what's happened to the drivers side?
    • Oh...I have the electric mirrors as well iirc ...they're in the same state as just about every other R31 door mirrors, with the 3 plastic screw towers broken/cracked in the plastic molding. All the interior is 'dry', so the mirror switches etc likely all work fine. Some pics below of the trimmer pieces ~ looks to me like previous owner, painted chrome finished trims with black paint ...ergo, the chrome underneath is likely a-ok... ...starts to look yukky posting stuff like this, how much did it cost in fuel on your last sortie up this way?...me just thinking aloud, borrow someone else's 4cyl to cut costs, come do your own pick'n'pull like before to save me some bother...hehe.. but whatever, I'll just earmark bits I know you want, because the way this is all panning out, I'll be able to retire the R31 from daily duty at long last, replacing it with a Subaru wagon I'm lining up in the wings...ergo, my attitude towards the donor pinny shell is starting to wane a bit, and I'm more than happy to help you out there... Like you say though, no rush...and I'll guarantee we won't be moving too far from this locale at any rate 😎
