Anyone got defected at Chapel st last night?

[DT]

Just wondering has anyone from here got defected at Chapel over the weekend?

And if yes, what did u get defected for?

Police defected about 40 cars there last night. I thought they are suppose to be imporving the "orders" in that area after all those night club problems, but what does it got to do with modified cars?

Anyway, you never know what they will book you for these days.

[IOWNU]

I didnt get defected.....but i heard about the 'police blitz' on the news.

You're right i dont c how that is helping the nightclub stabbings in the area.

They say they'll be on the 'blitz' for 3 weeks....so its best to avoid the Chapel Street area for a while. ......unless u want a defective sticker ?!?!

that sould always apply to doing laps

i was there... saw heaps of cops, a few commodores getting defected and unhappy owners.

also saw the nest report today

[doxximus]

meh dont do laps, just means it takes me longer to eating dinner

[inark]

chaps laps... the sadest of the sad.

id rather run naked thru a large plantation of lemon trees after rolling around on a bed of sandpaper...

well maybe not...

[KamikazeR33]

isnt chaps where all the poofs or the car skanks hang out?

thats what i was told anyway

[inark]

your informant is correct...

its filled with wankers with more expensive stereos than cars and 16yo slarts who will jump in ur VL at the sound of a cooler noise

[doxximus]

nah come on i go there for dinner and my stereo isnt big, but then again i dont cruise up and down constantly like i've seen that golgo gtr do

all i want to do is get to a carpark, park, eat food, go to borders, and then go home, but getting to the carpark takes an hour in itself

[Jamezilla]

Damn you Dox - that was our little secret

Anyhoo - from a local's perspective:

I had dinner at my mum's place in Armadale and went home via Prahran Coles at about 9.00pm Friday. Coming down Malvern Rd - I saw 3x patrol cars cruising. I turned left into Chapel and parked outside Coles (in Golgo) and while waiting at checkout saw 2x TMU, 1x Mercedes van, 3x bikes, 1x booze bus, some crazy personnnel carrier... and a partridge in a pear tree.

Headed along Chaps to Café Sienna - where I turn right to go home - and every second person on the street was a uniformed cop, there were 2x S13s and a VL outside KFC getting checked, a Lancer next to Coles getting checked and red/blue lights up near Jam.

Was out last night and heading home at 12.30am - saw many red/blue lights along Toorak & Chapel (was heading home from Richmond end) so went the long way around and went home via Williams Rd.

What an incredible waste of resources.

What were the police trying to do?

If you waste your time down chap street you deserve a big fat defective sticker! I have been down there a few times, was the most boring drive I had ever been on. Couldn’t wait to hit the princes again, at least you can drive on the HWY.

But yeah I agree I have no idea how Police wasting there time pulling over guys in expensive cars doing nothing wrong gives them a purpose. They would rather chase a guy with an apexi sticker rather than some dude with a knife

Heard about the blits on Friday morning, on NOVA. Warned my mate, who had just fitted a full spoiler kit to his RX7 series 6. But you think the fool listened, NOPE . One day on the road and now it's back off .

Surely people can find better things to do on weekends. If they really want to be in a traffic jam, just go on the Monash during peak hours .

[doxximus]

im going soon lol

I got pulled over near there last nite. i was heading home along toorak rd. i went past chaps and saw the numerous blue and reds flashing then one of them turned out of chaps onto toorak and pulled me over. I was bloody lucky the guy was a normal cop, not TMU. He checked my car, checked under the bonnet, got nothing illegal under there, no bigass zorst, pretty much didnt have a leg to stand on in terms of defecting me. I was praying he didnt know about power to weight, as im still on my p's. The cop took my license away for like 10 mins then came back and asked what i was doing in the area. i told him i was heading home from St Kilda and he just said "on your way". I tell you, i never breathed a bigger sigh of relief in my life!

I think ill be avoiding the area for a few weeks until this blitz has cooled down.

[DJ_L3ThAL]

whenever i have to go to jam factory or a cafe or something i either take mum's lancer or drive on parallel roads so when i go to chapel im on there for 10mtrs if that and straight into car park

safest option, or just disconnect your bonnet clip

[NismoR34]

some crazy personnnel carrier...

That was a RIOT van, I didnt see any riot's personally but you never know

I almost always go down to chapel for dinner / coffee etc on the weekends, including last night. I dont actually grace the chapel st tarmac with my car - i just park "nearby" and watch all the clowns get defected - some ask for it, some dont. The only difference this weekend is that people were warned - Herald Sun, MX, The Age, NOVA, FOX and 7,9 & 10 news...

I also heard today on Nova that they got over 100 cars, between Prahran, St.Kilda and any other area they were 'targetting'. They defected 37 cars just on chapel friday night!

There is no yellow sticker on my car but i did witness a few get done.

[krzysiu]

Dun police have anyfin better to do? bloody pooftas, i wonder how much money they get just outta chapel street.

MSPEC u stole my Bomex Front Bumper, give it bak lol

[RBN1]

really? man i'm hanging with the wrong crowd...time to go to chaps.

oh hang on i havn't got a VL

your informant is correct...

its filled with wankers with more expensive stereos than cars and 16yo slarts who will jump in ur VL at the sound of a cooler noise

[doxximus]

skyline is the new vl, no matter how much people want to deny it, its true

[RBN1]

then i'm in luck!

skyline is the new vl, no matter how much people want to deny it, its true

[MSPEC]

They are common but they are no VL, thats just down right stupid! When Skylines are worth $5K, and carry a Holden badge then you can call them a VL. Plus have you ever driven a VL Turbo? They go like shit, handle like shit and most of all look like shit! I own an VL with an RB25DET as well as my Skyline and there is no comparison LOL
