There's no hypocrisy here mate, you cannot compare the two. A blow off valve and an intercooler never killed anyone. A drunk driver doing 80km/h over the speed limit on the otherhand...

Caught person doing 140-160+ in 80 Zone who also went more than double the alcohol limit. The Drink driving ban is canceled out by the speeding ban. Impound, 1100 in fines and no driving for 12 months.

Lucky for him he didn't kill anyone. I'm glad I was doing laser duties when things were quiet and now have him off the road!

He wants to contest it saying his Honda Jazz doesn't go that fast.

I thought DD was longer than 11months?

60-80K over and wasted....very good work wanker!

I can't stand drink driving, I wouldn't do it myself, I wouldn't let my family get away with it, so I suppose I expect everyone else to give a shit and not do it

birds piss off. if you think that most people on here have never driven in a dangerous or stupid manner, you're having yourself on.

Like I said, there's been no context given to the situation.

I understand where your coming from, if the driver was

caught doing 160km/h on a country freeway late at night with no traffic to test out his new car it something then maybe abit of sympathy however over 0.05 aswell, it's clearly absolute wreckless

behaviour and no sympathetic way to look at it

but AGAIN THERE IS NO CONTEXT TO THE FACTS THAT WERE GIVEN IN THE ORIGINAL POST.

Graeme, feel free to elaborate on teh story?

Could have been someone who'd had a big night and woken up with a hangover thinking they would be alright to drive etc etc.

how does that make it acceptable for the 60-80km over the limit?

and most people should know even after you sleep there is still some traces of alcohol in the body

just accept his in the wrong, its coming from a police officers mouth, that caught him

What sort of context would make this behaviour acceptable then? Theres no way anyone with half a brain could wake up at double the legal alcohol limit and seriously believe they are fine to drive, let alone do 60-80kph over the speed limit and try to worm out of it with pathetic excuses.

Short of him trying to rush someone in a life/death situation to hospital, theres not much he could do/say that would invoke any sympathy from me or hopefully the judge that takes his case.

Do you say this in a way to excuse the person? If so... Nothing really against you, but my general view on this: I know people who go out and have a big night, then they think that because they slept for 3 hours and now the sun is out they must be safe. I think you'd have to be pretty dumb to be innocenly ignorant of the obvious.

Also, I think that the risk of the effect of alchohol is far more severe and unpredictable than that of speeding. If alchohol is involved in any kind of way.... then grrrrr. Speeding on the other hand, still stupid, but slightly controllable in certain instances.

I did 140 in an 88 Corolla once... down a hill... so no impossible for the Jazz :D

yeah i'm trying to bash the point into some very thick skulls that we don't know the whole story therefore perhaps should not be so quick to rush to judgement. I'm not trying to mock Graeme, he seems like a pretty cool guy and dosen't afraid of anything.

It was about 4am and he was on his way home from being out at club in the city. His alcohol reading was on the increase. He was speeding simply because he wanted to get home faster.

I followed him at speed up to 160-165 which was going downhill then but then he started to slow down as approaching Stud Road, which he barely stopped and ended up almost in middle of intersection. I was amazed that he even slowed down for that.

To be "fair" I just called his speed at 140 which he was well over but I followed/tried to catch up to him at 150-170 for about 2-3 km.

      3D printing fun

      By Sean'O · Posted

      Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.

      When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
