I'm at the the lights at I think brunswick st just at the end of the eastern freeway. Some shitty old stationwagon volvo was reving and giving all the signs of wanting to race. I laughed and when the light went green putted away while he screamed off (cough laugh choke). Anyway I saw a red light camera and thought something was a bit odd about it, I have recently heard that some redlight cameras are now speed cameras too. Anyway this volvo zipped off at around 70 and I hung back doing the speed limit, as he went through the intersection. FLASH! So heads up, I know the lights on springvale and highstreet rd have a speed camera, so here is the second one. I believe there are currently 4 in victoria! :/

There are about 3 sets of speed/redlight camera's on alexander parade, 3 in bound, 3 out bound. They've been there for at least 2 years now. The one on higtstreet road and springvale road is NOT a speed camera, it is an updated red light camera. There are 2 different sets of speed limits that intersect there, one is 60 the other 70. The way to tell for future refrence is look for a large cyclinder on a pole or the side of a camera, thats the radar.

There are far more that 4 in victoria, there's at least 2 where mountain hwy meets boronia road.

Plenty of intersections have these now. Dandeong Rd on cnr of Orrong is another example.

They look like this:

If you run a red - they get you.

If you speed through on green or yellow - they get you.

If you speed through red - they get you twice.

welcome to a long time ago.. jeebz, half of those were up a couple of years even before I left!

I've noticed the victorian road toll is also pretty much exactly the same as it was about 4 years ago too, they government just has a lot of money to show for it..

    • 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.
