Im not sure if anyone has posted this here before.

Quite a good read. Tells you all the restrictions as far as cameras after limit changes, at the bottom of hills, how the radar has to be alligned, etc.

I especially like the theory of going to view your photograph and if there is any other car in the pic (as would be the case on the freeway, etc) then they cannot fine you!

Also I have heard that if you get booked by an actual human police officer they have to be wearing their hat when they walk up to the car (otherwise you cannot be booked).

Another one I heard was if you are speed checked (cop travels behind you and uses his speedometer to determine your speed) then they have to produce a tyre guage and all their tyres must measure exaclty 37psi otherwise they cannot book you.

And last one is that if the have a hand held unit they must take two read outs, 3 seconds apart. They have to show you both readouts if you request this. And you can only be booked for the lesser speed. My Father has used this in Sydney and it downgraded him from a 15-30km to a 0-15km fine.

You know how they could save money and save lives.....scare tactics.

Who would continue at a speed (subconsciously) above the speed limit (speed limit = what that sign said) after they see a sign saying "Speed cameras are used in this area"? or something to that affect.

Hey I saw that 'hoons' sign on the way through Mandurah too, and I think I've seen it in Bunbury as well! I wonder what they'll target next: 'loud doof-doof music'! Or 'overly done up Hyundai Excels'? Ha ha!

"But my mom says I'm cool."

I like in the Pizza movie, cops are now targeting "Lebanese". Won't go too well in Cronulla at the moment :)

At Sir Charles Gaidner Hospital the speed limit is 30km but heading north towards the tee junction the last 50 meters there is a state limit speed sign. Which means your are leagally allowed to do 110km per hr for the last 50 meters

Well RADAR detectors are about to be banned. Funny no one seems to be complaining about it? <_<

Or, stranger, not after the lowest road toll for decades, thanks mainly to the new driving test rules, it seems that the real reason that people are dying is RADAR detetcors. Must ban them.

:D

Then of course there's the gymbyments commets last year that budgeted speed camera revenue will be/was down 10%. Must do something about that.....

End rant.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
