To All Newcastle Members, Heads Up For Operation Hammer!


Recommended Posts

Aww :(

But I dont wanna be! >.<!

Doesnt matter, we are stereotyped buddy! Hence why the cops are targetting modified cars and not camrys with belts hanging out of the tyres........... You dont need tyres to be safe, a standard airbox makes the car safe :no:

haha camry showing belts was my last car!

Once again! You are a menace to society! You are the whole cause of operation Hammerbutt!

That's why you don't get harassed in Sydney benji, cause Sydney isn't full of f**kwit bogans!!!

have you been to Sydney?

also, I get the while illegally modded car crack down, what I don't get, is why they make it so hard to get mods legal in the first place.

remember, a vt commo with 20's is illegally modified.

and as previously stated, we have already had crack downs in Sydney.

I do not take my car out on a Thursday night, anywhere, for this exact reason.

defects everywhere.

but, people still don't learn.

mate had a neat vx, was bull shit low, pulled over, defected, all he was doing was pulling into the carpark to go shopping.

thats where they had the defect station set up.

its going to happen, and continue to happen.

just try and be polite as possible, and hopefully get off a little better.

haha so annoying ay, id be so pissed off about that.

i hate the idea of not being able to drive my car when ever i want

i heard they defected people for ripped floor mats, no water in washer bottle and window winders not working o.O

It's starting to get pretty average in Newcastle if you have a modified car. But I do see why they are doing it. In saying that the government isn't making it Easy to make modified cars legal. BUT if people continue to go to coragang and the foreshore, the police will continue to go there and defect. On a side note, like to see if a police car has a engineer certificate for all the "none standard" equipment they have.

OPERATION HAMMEROID!

If they were pro-active about supplying education to modified vehicle owners or at least a chance to discuss the mods and options then they would get a lot more support from the car scene, but the way they are handling defects and punishing modified cars is just silly, some of the stories of defects ive heard so far have been pretty stupid! SAFETY issues should warrant defects, but some of the things being picked on are pretty stupid!

I was considering buying a bike a while back so i didnt have to deal with the cops anymore if u know what i mean :yes: but not all the cops are assholes, i had 1 HWP not even gun my GTR on old pac the other day (was not speeding), he just stood there staring at my car in awe as i went past him, then flashed the bikes that where about to go past him doing 100km/hr + LMFAO

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
