Just ban him on general principles I reckon. Then again, why bother? There'll just be another account signed up.

Cops piss me off, they really do. The amount of absolute stupidity on our roads by "Average Joe" (changing lanes without indiciating, tailgating, illegal u-turns, drink driving, reversing without looking, etc) is just astounding. Yet what do they concentrate their efforts on? Imports with mags. FFS. And what else? They get everyone off the M1 (long, straight, good surface, no blind entry or exit points, good visibility) and onto suburban streets (corners, poorly lit, parked cars hiding obstacles, people reversing out of driveways, noise complaints)... Way to go top brass!

And then, when someone tries putting on an event to get people off the street (eg: powercruise), they set up a ****ing defect station outside. Oh yeah, nice one brass. Lets make sure we make it as least likely as possible for hoons to go and do their stupidity in a controlled environment. I mean, would YOU go and pay money as well as wait around for hours to do your stupidity off the street only to be defected on the way out? Wheres the bloody incentive? I'd rather keep doing my stupid shit in backstreets. I'll never be caught and it doesnt cost a thing. Pity its bloody dangerous and pisses residents off. But hey, where else am I going to do it?

I just dont understand how the top brass cops think. Hire me as a consultant, I only want $90/hour and I'll give ya some great ideas. I wonder if its irony that any money I earnt from preventing street hoons would go straight into my car to further enhanche my street hooning ability? :D

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
