[SA Cars Spotted Thread 2]

[Madaz]

well i know the people that told me there are 2 of these getting around and there cop cars having nothing to lie about

[gtrkiet]

how about this bad boy

[writeoff]

When I first looked at the photo instead of thinking "Oh no. Another unmarked cop car to catch me when I do something wrong" I actually wondered if the cops had purchased a Skyline to try and catch more of the thieves that have been stealing our pride and joys at a rate of about 1 a week for the last 6 months. It may or may not be a cop car but I for one hope that it is... and that it gets stolen and leads the cops to a warehouse full of Skylines & Skyline parts. Although that may all be wishful thinking.

i like the way you think david

i reckon you would have to be pretty dumb to take a car with a mini base station on it

[bezender]

i saw a tidy looking dark blue 4 door on seacombe road at about midday heading in the other direction gave a wave

spotted Darren on south rd today

[lcf]

I asked someone closely related to sapol to day about it and he told me that there are 16 sapol lines at the moment, the ones will the arials are only D’s the others don’t have them. They are also retuned and unlimited!!! He also let slip that they are getting two 35 GTR’s that will be marked highway patrol and used up north

[heslo]

lol, wtf? Would love to see someone pulled over in a Skyline, especially a new GTR. For what purpose are they using these cars however? (the 16 they currently have)

[lcf]

he wouldnt tell me, all he would say is that some of them were only D's what and were the others are he wouldnt say

[heslo]

D's = detectives?

[Madaz]

thats ok guys apology accepted

so how do i become a cop and get issued one of these 35 GTR

if there running untunned and unlimited can we pull them over get them for boost guages controlers Pfc's and whatever else the now low and they do run standard wheels with orriginal twin muffler on that silver one

the more descrete ones may have mags and zausts i dont know

YES heslo D = detective

[lcf]

sorry, yes detectives

[Import S13]

isnt there age restrictions on police cars though?

ive known a couple 33's that came with them from japan including my crash repair's 33

Madaz, was the 33 in the picture a 4 door? next time you seen him just cruise up and ask what its for

[Jas033]

Spotted a dark blue 32 gtr plates I WIN today at work, Also SLY 34 today and last night.

[Madaz]

na Kye was a 2 door, i would get laughed out the door if i tried to recruit .. um i don't think there is a age limit to drive the cars i think for bikes there is and maybe highway patrol would need x amount of driving hours and extra advanced driver courses

SAPOL recruitment tool

Spotted nisskid on Greenhill/Goodwood Rd. Everytime I looked your way you looked the other way SNOB! LOL

[Deluxe]

spotted Darren on south rd today

You sure did, couldn't miss you half out ya window!!

[Trav33]

**BEWARE** Guys

Police are using skylines as pursuit vehicles undercover of course

there is this silver one and a white one getting round

My limited knowledge of RF would say that's not a SAPOL equipped vehicle. SAPOL use the Government Radio Network (GRN) which are only require a 40cm antenna for their digital signals. Highway vehicles have HF radios which have the big antennas, but theres no reason to put one on a city vehicle like that, and it doesnt look like a HF antenna. I've seen plain clothed officers in an old holden crusing around TTP before, they normally dont equip the vehicle with a mobile radio, but use their handhelds. And they arn't undercover persuit vehicles, but more like a spotter. My guess is its a CB enthusiest, as someone else suggested. Probably have a scanner in there to pick up a wide spectrum of frequencies hence the need for a long antenna.

The End!

[Madaz]

While you raise some good points trav i still beleive it's cops

im also told it's a hills cruiser

[Hillzy]

I highly doubt they will get 35 GTRs. Why wouldn't they get a porsche or something else exotic?

This is Australia, the government won't spend $100k+ on a highway pursuit vehicle. They've already got pursuit vehicles and they're commos with a big SS badge on the back...
