its a bloody industrial area, kids shouldnt be on the road anyway.

some of the speed limits around south road are a joke atm. still 40 when nothings going on. or worst yet. 40 when all of a sudden it bottlenecks into 1 land and theres roadworkers standing on the road pretty much begging to be collected by a B double,.

*sigh* once again the SAU judges, juries and executioners convict the person involved before he has had his case heard in court.

LOL...thats how we roll Kristian! :whistling:

Yeah he was being a tool.... well he has no car for a month and no doubt a hefty fine/ loss of licence coming. No one was hurt (thankfully) so...end of story.

I gotta admit tho that I drove along there at New years with no workers in sight and it was bloody frustrating rolling at 40.

Come on now kristian, we all know that SAU drivers never misbehave!

But seriously who hasn't sped or done something stupid in our life. It's pretty easy to point the finger at someone when they screw up and not look in our own backyard. Big deal-the guy made a mistake-and let's face it has court,impounding,I dare dare loss of license and big$$& to pay- pretty sure he will get a severe penalty that none of us would like. Why would u crush such an valuable/rare/awesome piece of machinery- he paid the money for it so I don't believe anyone has the right to take it away---- that's my two bobs worth..

PISStol Ped, Remember that when the next kid gets killed by someone doing 100 in a 40 zone.

yeah coz i see kids playing in road works all the time. just today i literally saw 5 kids playing cricket on south rd

Open your eyes and look at the signs, or isnt your brain connected to your brain, I cannot believe the mentality of some people, have you never seen kids riding bikes or skateboards in a "industrial area", trucks loading and unloading, or people out for a walk, Im happy when idiots who think they can do what they want get booked.

Or are you to cool and hecktic to obey the law.

Its simple really, unless you yourself are simple.

i drive around wingfield day in day out.

never seen kids playing in the streets or on the side of the road....

A few things - Point notation of things I've noticed and the dash points on my personal conclusions...

A) Nobody knows the full details of what happened - aside from what the media and sapol have publicly released - we both know they're biased

- Meaning we need to stfu before we know (as opposed to what we think we know) what actually happened

B) If he was doing 110 in the area they are speaking of, then the dude deserves to be cockslapped

- No excuse for speeding (And I have speeding tickets (none over 15kph over the limit mind you)

C) People saying that minor speeding (under 20kph) and major speeding (40kph+) are the same thing are on drugs. I've been guilty of the former (and drunk driving too*). I'd never condone breaking the law but the fact is, the law is set up so that average people, without criminal intent, do break the law. All of these 'laws' are misdemeanors/trivial which are never heard in court unless elected. The law is setup in these cases to raise revenue. We all know this. But saying that a dude doing 60 in a 50 zone is the same as a cat doing 180 in a 100 zone, or 110 in a 60 zone, is simply bollocks. One can say in this case it was marked as '40' but that roads always been 60 and doesnt look anything like a freeway ;P

- Put the pipe down. I know crack is more-ish, but put that pipe down.

D) People saying that the car should be crushed... again, not knowing the circumstance one cannot ascertain if the driver was the owner. Also, crushing a perfectly good piece of equipment is wasteful, whether its a car or a dildo. Clean it up and sell if you must. But really, the car didn't cause the crime. The dude behind the wheel is. And he/she should bear the full attention of the law - not the vehicle (Also, crushing proponents, what if the car is under finance and is actually 'owned' by a bank or credit union?)

- People who advocate crushing of cars are oxygen deprived.

E) Everyone hates the roadworks. I do. I hate doing 25. My clutch leg gets sore. But if they dont upgrade the roads, we bitch about the roads being shit.

- People in general cannot see the glass being half full.. Its a necessary evil. Sure, it'd be nice if the govt put the money in to fix stuff before it breaks, but hey... they have bicycle races to promote you know....

-D

*EDIT - Admitting != condoning. By no means am I saying I was hard done by getting caught PCA. I made a mistake - I dealt with the consequences and have no complaints about my treatment in regards to that - in short, if you drink and drive, you're a dickhead - if you drink and drive twice, give yourself an uppercut.

f**k some people are dumb on SAU.

A) Always and inevitably each of us underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.

B) The probability that a given person is stupid is independent of any other characteristic possessed by that person.

C) A person is stupid if they cause damage to another person or group of people without experiencing personal gain, or even worse causing damage to themselves in the process.

D) Non-stupid people always underestimate the harmful potential of stupid people; they constantly forget that at any time anywhere, and in any circumstance, dealing with or associating themselves with stupid individuals invariably constitutes a costly error.

E) A stupid person is the most dangerous type of person there is.

(blatantly stolen from wikipedia)

No kids

Just wokers standing around chatting

and a cop hiding somewhere with his radar going for the kill... he got a big one

"Driving on loose, undulating and incomplete road surfaces can also be especially dangerous in wet weather." ... but he has a 35 GTR

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
