Huge Booze Setup at intersection Springvale Rd, Princess Hwy, Police Rd and Centre Ro


Recommended Posts

Last night i was driving home at round 1am where i see ***kin shitloads of cops and booze busses. If any of you were there this was HUGE. Looks like they were determinied on making some money :) and yes save lives cuz we all know drink driving is ***kin stupid. I tried to avoid it (obvious reasons, P-plater in a powerful car) but there was NO way out. Was so lucky he didnt pull me over and ask me to pop the hood otherwise i would have been ***ked. Didnt even ask for licence or anything, and i drove by thinking, "damn i was lucky"

Anyone else see?

I live not very far frm that area, they have done the same setup in the past. Last year when they did one I think they got 25 drivers over the limit, 6 expired rego's, and one stolen vehicle.........so they would haul it in.

And your right, there is no way out, your screwed which ever way you go.

Yeah, was driving down princes hwy with a few other cars and saw the booze bus ahead of me, looked to each side going across the intersection and the busses were everywhere... there was no way out!

Though it was good to see the cops were trying to get the drunks off the road and not hassle us when going through the booze busses.

Yeah saw that as well, they were on a purpose and thats' all about drink ppl not import so its' all good. There were plenty of VLs and other hotup car cruising back from da city, saw GTR90 as well, don't know if hes' on the forum.

I got stopped. I live near there. That intersection has more fatalities than any other in Victoria IIRC. My sister and I nearly got killed by some dumb****s that ran a red :madfark:

I got nothing against booze buses and I hope they book every mother ****er over the limit.

thats right, but it sucks when your under the limit and then when u go to drive the alkohol creeps back up to ya! so ur screwed without realising it, a friends sister got done for that a few months back...

    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
