It's a camera that will register when you are at the Hospital and then again at the Monaro Hwy..... if you were not doing 80kms the whole way between the points, it will know, cos you got there too fast :happy: Then you get booked.

Its just going to make everyone super paranoid and drive at 70.. thus making the traffic problems worse in peak hour. It will also cause alot more road rage as there is nothing more frustrating than someone driving UNDER the posted speed limit infront of you

will also most likely increase accidents as everyone is paying attention to how fast they are going not the traffic around them.

Yeah it's vehicle recognition. It sees your car, remembers what it looks like, then picks it again at the next camera. It works out your average speed between the 2 points based on how far they are apart and how long it took you to get there, and books you if you exceeded the limit.

That being said, if it takes you 20 minutes to travel between them at the speed limit, you could stop for 10 minutes after passing the first one, then double the speed limit (160km/h in this case) the whole way there, and not get booked by this system.

True enough Troy lol. But they'll prob still have regular cops driving around :happy:

Yeh sounds in someways like a good idea, but in others, like something to create more issues.

Does the sydney toll roads work like this - the ones where you use etags etc... cos if it doesn't, surprised they've not implemented it already. They know when you enter, when you exit and how long it took between each point.

This sounds like a less than fun idea. Prob also is, say you average 3-5km's over, normally wouldn't get booked for that, but over the length of a long road, that saved a noticeable bit of time - they are gonna book you for that...

If it checks you at the Hospital then again at the Monaro Hwy you can just speed all the way then turn off before the next camera and take back roads... point to point average speed cameras only really work if there is no where to turn off between the cameras

Thus my point re the toll roads in sydney, they already register when you enter and exit.

But yeah does only work if there are no turn offs. But they could do it between two sets of intersections. EG parkway they could do one between lady denman drive and cotter road had they wanted to.

yup, or even sitting on 80km on that stretch where there's 3 lanes going from the hospital up the hill will be a PITA. If you don't use it much then you just just deal with it, but not every single fcking day... staring at your speedo all the way to work.

I'll probably go via the Monaro instead.

They are also doing this without fixed cameras in sydney or atleast talking about it. they mark a measured distance in the road and time you with someone in a plane overhead, so not only do you need to look out for cameras, you also need to be looking in the sky for the pricks with their stopwatches. although it is a big white line across the road so if you cross one slow down untill you cross another. i think it is being trialed on the F3 at the mo

Australia doesn't really have the population for this to work full time.

In the states they do it in remote areas like bumf**kville on the highways to catch the country drivers who go out there to.....enthusiastically drive their vehicles.

Anyway my point is SPEED KILLS!! OH WON'T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE WHALES!

If I can't fix it can I repair it?

speed has never killed anyone. its the sudden stop that does it.

This is purely without a doubt just a revenue raiser. Even one of the top traffic camera office guys thinks it's shit.

Also what they have done is taken all of the money out of maintaining the existing red light speed camera program to get this point to point thing going... Cough cough, red light speed cameras at the moment are lacking maintenance...

at least i usually only travel past the point to point one in my van, which is lucky to do 70 up the hill.

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
