have to remeber those ones. i reckon a lot of people will get done by them, just about every second person puts their foot down through amber lights

I don't think the guy in the link I posted just squeezed it on to get through the lights.. 70km/h over the limit.. that tops my official best of 55km/h over! :kiss:

Rear-ending will probably increase significantly.

Best be careful on bikes!

Good opportunity to do a stoppie.... and then get wiped out :P

just get the wheel up on a good enough angle so the camera cannot see your plate :rofl: Failing this just reach around stick your hand/foot over your plate or at least partially cover it.

Considering they are fixed it's not as bad as ones that can pop up anywhere to make revenue save lives...

Knowing where they are is more of a proven deterrent, it's just that the government won't accept & agree with that.

They removed the red light camera on the beginning of hay street, so Im guessing there gonna put a fix speeding camera there

even before the camera there that would have to be one of the worst spots to let loose.

anyone know if they work in more than 1 direction? and what part of your car has to be over the line before the light goes red?

On a related topic, my dad just received a fine for speeding during the Easter Break time. Happened on our way to Kalgoorlie, apparently he was going 109km/h (90km/h) area, must be one of those times when he was over taking a multi-stage Semi, I didn't even know that the gutless Corolla could master enough grunt to push to 109km/h in that short period of time...

Dad is telling me to keep my mouth shut about this to mum, not because she cares much about the points (4) nor whole 'lower speed is safer thing' but because of the $150 fine... being the typical 'cheap ass Asian' she is gonna kill us both if she found out we effectively just 'wasted' $150. :)

& this makes me the 'safest' driver in the family for the reasoning of having no fines :thumbsup:

just curious

the speed camera is basically like a normal speed camera yeah? detects if your going too fast and flashes?

what are these ones i've heard about where they measure point to point?

like 1 set of lights and then the other set and then theyre like 'you travelled fast between there, SNAP'

or is that hocus pocus :blush:

hey guys, i know now you cant 'speed through amber lights' but at least you know where the cameras are.

Plus you shouldnt REALLY be speeding anyway, not THAT drastically :blush:

but i know everybody speeds now and then.

but yeah in the eastern states people know where the speed cameras are and now we know where a few are too.

Apparently they will be brought in, but with how they are described to work there's gotta be a few loopholes surely :blush:

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
