got done by Pettett yesterday, got defected Epa, fine for driving a restricted vehicle (on p's) and a fine for a unroadworthy car, and if i get caught driving my car again i gotta go to court. i was driving fine but he was being a prick and pulled me over, didnt even get breathalised, i know hes probably reading this as he told me he does, so Pettett and your buddies shouldnt you doing real cop work like catching thieves, busting ganags actually make vic a safer place to live in rather than just pull people over that aren't driving badly. i know im not allowed to drive it, i admit, but i dont drive bad and i only boost it up when LEGALLY dragging

yeh, its tough huh. i got done by him a million, i live 2 mins from knox, even got done practically coming out of my driveway... obviously not driving badly, as well as stud rd going 60km 8am on sunday morning on the way to church... bleh... cant win...

i heard from a friend's friend that he might be getting transferred, dont know how reliable that is, prolly bs, but dunno...

yeh but there are "real" traffic and motoring jobs out there that should be attended to instead of hassling those abiding by the rules...

e.g. epa's should be given to old shtboxes blowing smoke

e.g. unroadworthy fines should be given to cars without panels

e.g. defects should be given out for reasons other than being an import (i got done for dvd screen..)

e.g. pullups should be done to people who aren't abiding by the traffic rules...

i know that driving over the power/weight limit is against the rules and im sure that is accepted. but its the hassles and the carefree slapping of offences by cops to citizens who have no say that is a little unfair...

fair enuff the vehicle is over the power/weight so fine for that... but why do they insist on spending an hour in their car before they come out, searching every crack in the car like we're criminals and adding a million fines for offences that are totalyl upto cop discretion...

Unfortunatly as has been said before.

We drive these cars around, and if we don't expect attention from the boys in blue then we are kidding ourselves.

As for driving a car which you aren't allowed to, well you are simply flaunting the law.

No offence here either, but krzysiu, I think you are mad driving that car on your P plates.

I mean a stock R33, they might let slip if you are being nice you them, but one that looks like yours, and so is obviously well modified, you are just asking to be put off the road.

Anyway, as I said, no offence. Just my $0.02

    • Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.
    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
    • yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.
    • Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?
