Cops are in full force this week, and over the long weekend.

All the Traffic Management Units are rostered for patrol so just be cautious.

Not that it's anything to people who drive responsibly, but if you have a moded up car, be fore warned about being "randomly" pulled over for defect checks.

Reminder that exhausts must be below 90dB (which is stupid because my car does 94dB from factory, either way I've lost).

Still kind of a pointless political push operation as people are still dying on the roads, just an excuse for a revenue raiser.

ANYWAY, you have been given the heads up.

Isn't there industrial action at the moment???... :thanks::stupid::pwned::google::spam::ban: ...I think they won't be doing anything to raise money for the government until they get their pay raise...

But on that note... ...I don't know any cop that would put industrial action before public safety...

actually they have been parking near speed cameras' this week to stop people getting caught and as the government lies to tell us " they are ONlY there for our safety... NOTHING to do with revenue raising"

;)

ive noticed heaps of cops on the road the past week or two. I got defected last week but now I'm armed with a valid rwc... invincible!

Either way the skyline will probably stay at home for a while since there is no shortage of cars at my house and no point risking getting picked on by the man.

No shiiiit...so that's why there was a cop car parked on the median strip at the Bayswater Rd and Canterbury Rd intersection. There's a permanent "safety" camera there and he had his lights on but no one pulled over...confused the hell out of me.

Drove past a un marked cop this morning, saw him starring at me, certainly got the heart rate going :teehee: .

Seriously at this rate I'm looking at getting my muffler changed, even though its not that loud I'm sick of driving around been paranoid.

When will they realise that owning an import isnt going to kill people on our roads lol, I mean they spend all this time defecting people so they can look good in the public eye but then they cant do there real job of stopping theft or other serious stuff. There has been so many threads on stolen cars yet nothing really gets done about it.

I wonder why we even have Police sometimes, they should just change there name to victoria TMU and be done with it.

It's unfortunate that the perils of driving a modified car draws the attention of defect/epa hungry cops. Even if you're driving along enjoying a nice casual cruise under the speed limit, there's a chance you will be "randomly" pulled over. Sigh.... sucks but that's how it is.

    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
    • You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position. 
    • You talking about the ones in the photo above? I guess that could make sense. Fixed (but flexible) line from the point up above down to the hubcap thingo, with a rotating air seal thingo. Then fixed (but also still likely flexible) line from the "other side" of the transfer in the hub cap thingo up to the valve stem on the rim. A horrible cludge, but something that could be done. I'd bet on the Unimog version being fed through from the back, as part of the axle assembly, without the need for the vulnerable lines out to the sides. It's amazing what you can do when you have an idea that is not quite impossible. Nearly impossible, but not quite.
