I think Australia, or Victoria at least have travelled too deep into the nanny idea of safety, which is effective in revenue. Most probably they will just continue to tighten the reins.

Lucky I just quit my job where I'm driving 24,000kms a year and now I'm taking the train. oo-right! No tickets for mwah :O

Gahhhh this shit makes me rage, they do nothing to slow down drivers. Just money making machines, A cop car in full view with full police paintjob would be more effective in slowing people down than some speed camera.

watched the video, lmao at 'double skinned lexan windows... for the safety of the operator". im tipping they'll cop a fair workout.

im thinking about making a few signs saying 'filthy bastard speed camera ahead' and popping them on the side of the road when i see the filthy bastard things, to let other people know. i'll keep them in my ute, so they'll always be handy.

i can understand both sides..

as for safety - there is none.

purely revenue - and they always, ALWAYS claim they aint after revenue but safer roads.. lol

but on the other hand - never lost a point in all my years so its not hard to follow the *pathetic* laws.

Same thing i say to everyone who says they aren't out to make money...

Whats the big deal, they are clearly signed, if you get fined, its your own fault.

the sign is in past tense. meaning that they are placed AFTER you've passed the camera. also they are using IR flashes now? wtf atleast you used to be sensible for the rest of the week/day/km once you saw the flas and knew you'd been done. not even that "saftey" aspect now

Think he is trying to say that if you don't speed you have nothing to worry about. Want to make them poor f**kers and not make money of us? Don't speed (or don't speed past cars parked on the side of the road :P ) lol

    • Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.
    • hrmmm , not mine , easter plans to pull engine not happening     
    • I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4
    • Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.
