This is probably common knowledge to most of you but i was still shocked at a SS wagon undercover, like seriously! wagon? really? (i think there uglier then a pile of dogshit, but thats just me) - also i got pulled over for a random check, under bonnet, tyres etc by an undercover FPV, soooo sexy, brembo breaks the works.... and when i complimented the car he couldn't help having a big cheesy grin...lucky bastard!

Theres also a regular I always see in the inner city areas, Green SS with a Green Chev sticker in flames pasted on the Back windscreen...Not to mention the few Typhoons getting around the city as well.

You should see the unmarked SS utes they havein Queensland... They have some sweet cars!

Wollongong also has cars like Corollas etc roaming everywhere.

HI guys,

Just spotted a pretty hot looking blue FG XR6 turbo with custom plates 'ROYAN1' around Parra area.

Looks like an old-man racer but its an undercover fuzz car... just thought I'd give you all the heads up.

Word

yup, he has been around for some time....also drives an xr6 typhoon (yellow) and you will mostly see them around cumberland hwy during the day.....you will find both the cars working together and they r both middle/older looking guys. :blink:

how much do ex hwp cars go for? how many km's later do the cops start selling off their fleets?

Generally they would sell a whole bunch when the models change. Expect to be able to pick them up when (or should I say IF) a new falcon model is released. They may have a kilometer cap where the vehicle is sold if it reaches a certain mileage too.

My dad bought a an '06 or '07 Camry from here not too long ago. It was a Government auction, they also do private etc. But there was ex HWP cars there, SS's and Typhoons. They all had (iirc) way more than 40k on the clock and I think one Typhoon sold for like $24-25k with like 125k on the clock? But most of them don't sell because noone's there to bid on them lol...

Either way, worth checking out.

Point is don't race anyone, but we all know we drive our cars flat stick here and there.. we're not all innocent...

If we wanted to stick to the speed limit and drive like normal people non of us would have Skylines as daily cars, but keep smart, safe and accident free on the street is the focus. Save it for the track if you want to drive like a monkey.

most of my parents cars are ex gov. they get around the 40k mark. none had issues but generally they come with warranty and pickles check them out pretty well. but i know of alot of company cars that get trashed around. so sometimes you might get a dud

Lol....in campbelltown they have a sportivo corolla undercover car that has p plates... and loves the limiter...and traffic lights.

See this is what pisses me off. These cops can go around pretending to be P platers, egging on other people to race them, and we get f**ked for it. I was in my mates torana and two approx 27 - 32 yo drivers pull up in a commodore while were out driving around Parramatta. At the lights they are full shit talking about how their car will tear us up and how bad we should go them. We just drove casually as they floored it. Two minutes down the street you see the same car pulled over an s14.

Is that fair? I consider this entrapment. They actually went too far when they were egging us on.

Oh and this ROYAN1 car always comes past my place. He fills up petrol at caltex on woodville road opposite mcdonalds :)

He was too obvious, you can see all this gear inside the car. To be honest I don't feel theres anything wrong with giving it off the lights. The use of common sense and you should be fine. My mates give it to the speed limit. Theres no point dragging it on. Punch first gear, maybe abit in second then back off. Simple.

Spotted ROYAN1 in Prospect coming off the M4 on Prospect Hwy yesterday afternoon.

I was surprised he didn't bat an eyelid at my exhaust that you can hear 2 suburbs away.

Know what?

I'm actually glad that the cops do this.... cause if you're stupid enough to RACE on public roads... you SHOULD get caught before you kill someone.

I've seen a lot of different undercover cars.. you just don't know these days but, one thing is certain.. if you DON'T race or try to prove some pseudo macho shit, you'll never be picked on

It's THAT simple.

      MLR's Bogan cruise ship

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.

      Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
