again?????????? where they get you this time?

Yep, again. In good ol' Seaford/Carrum Downs. I was driving down McCormicks Road and the whole way down, I was tailgated by a bung looking Mitsu 380 with stockies on the back (for whatever reason), constantly slowing down and then fanging it right up behind me. But the local HWP was happy to follow the 380 until he turned off which put the HWP right behind me.

Good job officer, I hear the crime rate is the lowest in the country at Carrum Downs and you did not have any other real crimes to attend to

Am I the only one around here happy with the fact I no longer have a 33?

Nope, I miss my 33 everyday. Best car I've ever owned and continues to run rings around the ol' SS-V. Shitload more reliable too!

Deadset serious, do you really think so? I've heard that HWP love homing in on cars with personlized plates. But my plates don't yell out "hoon" or anything. I mean, yeah sure it screams out "wanker!" but other than that, pretty timid plates.

Okie dokie, I'll see what I've got on the work computer

[Sunkist]

Yeah done that but for some reason love the hooters taste!

The hooters sauce is actually pretty good, I like to think I make pretty good buffalo wings, a lot of people have had mine and they reckon they havnt had better. So I'm pretty proud, although it's not that hard to make lol

100% serious mate. have you heard the hsv????? ive driven past member a cun-sorry constable in a hwpc and nothing. ditch the plate man. just go black and white standards. you could sell them for shit loads to a hektik bro.

I agree with Paul

Your personalized plates gives the police the impression that you may be "wanker" that does Prinny Hwy runs rather than your everyday Joe Blow with a HSV

my cousin used to have a 1986 telstar with the plates 'SLWDWN" and got pulled over reguarly lol. think he bought the car with the plates, cause he's not that gay.

I like waht youve done with the grille and bumper, just not a fan of the tumor bonnet add-on. I remember when you were asking for opinions, did any of them end up being functional?

[Sunkist]

Lol it's not the plate that draw attention to it. It's a lot lower now than when I saw it last lol

Hmm yeah you fellas do make a pretty good point. I mean, HWP have driven past me many times with no problems, but it's more so when they get behind me. I become a sitting duck

Hahaha yeah, that was good times trying to get the car on Scotty's hoist. Was on coilovers when you last saw it but it's on airbags all 'round now so clearing the defect isn't too hard. Just annoying

I actually went out of my way to buy the plates, so you better believe I'm that much of a tosser haha FML

Haha I can see why they pull you over now

That car is bloody low!

Must be fun getting up driveways

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

lol

if i was a cop i would100% pull that car over.

I would also expect the driver to be a complete douchelord and would have the defect written before you had a chance to open your mouth and defend yourself

"no offence"

[CrispyFries]

what frame is that?

Mine is a lot more complete than that last photo too

it's a suzuki gt250 X7 - 2 stroke. The rest of the bike is around, but that's the current state

Currently cleaning out/setting up my workshop so I can really get started.

[HEKT1K]

Make a setting with the bags that very slowly raises it to 100mm over the course of a minute or so. Press when you see the disco lights. Problem solved

[KURAUN]

why not drive aired up?

Hahaha going up driveways and flooded roadways are a beautiful thing now. With all bags fully pumped at ~100psi, I give mum's Captiva ground clearance a good run for the money.

Bahahahaha touche sir, touche.

I was considering it, but we all know how much cops LOVE to be right so if they see me low and then when they do pull me over Ip'm at over 100mm, they will search for anything/everything that will prove them right. In this case, a cure is better than prevention

why not drive aired up?

My fail-offset rims means driving aired up makes the wheels look even more fail
