"they Are Everywere Atm"


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I am for the s.e suburbs of melbourne, were atm every second car is a police car and if its not its undercover..

I was at my local gym the other day in the narre warren area training away when i hear a cop siren in the car park..??

Sure enough i walk to the frount door to find a s14 pulled over by an undercover ss out the front..

Apparently they heard the car cumming up the hill to the gym and by the note of the exhaust they said they could tell that he was speeding, (without a radar) ..

because they couldnt prove this, they ended up giving the guy a majour canary on the car for the exhaust hanging to low, somthing hanging from the rear veiw mirror, and a loose spaeaker in the car..

Needless to say, the very nxt day i purcased 2 new tyres for my r33 and replaced my hks 3.3/4 inch exhaust system with the stock one !! (still leaving the 3inch dump pipe) lol..

On that note:

The car dosnt seem to hav lost any power at all..??

and ..If u live in the area they are EVERYWERE ATM!!

Call me crazy but..

as a car that u drive everyday it really dosnt seem worth it these days to modify ur car at all...!

Yeah that's true mate, I've noticed lately there's been a huge increase in cop presence on our roads.

I'm from Berwick but usually stay in Frankston with the missus and I get paranoid everytime I jump in the car LOL

just remember the nail that sticks out gets hammered ;)

keep your mods sedate ,keep the car quiet and drive with the traffic not ahead of it and you shouldnt have too much stress. I've been pulled over a few times and have not had a problem with my car but unfortunately others think its great to have loud lary cars and drag race princes hwy on friday nights.

Hmm, I noticed this to (specifically, in the S.E burbs (Dandenong, Noble Park, Berwick). With the new hoon laws, I'm actually genuinely thinking about selling up and buying something more sedate, something I can drive on a Friday or Saturday night without feeling overly paranoid...

yup, and car thefts are still happening everywhere.

Strange how one has a better chance of getting defected/impounded/fined than having their stolen car recovered/ever found... whistling.gif

:whistling:

EDIT: When I 1st saw the title I was thinking of bogans in their Commodores with Chevy badges... LOL

Every 2nd commo I see has a chevy badge on the back.

its happening in my area in NSW too

In the space of 3 days 3 of my mates got defected. 1 yellow canary, 1 req blue slip, and the other for fog lights on and another almost got done for his number plate on the side (cop didnt see it at first)

fog lights on

that's one fine I 100% agree with.

learn to work a switch. same goes for the ultrabright fog brake light. if it's not foggy, turn it off. it dazzles other drivers.

just waiting for someone to come in whinging that their illegal HID bulb conversion got them a fine..

    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
