A man has been caught speeding at 203kmh in a Toyota Corolla in Sydney's west, police say.

The 23-year-old was observed allegedly speeding in a 110kmh zone on the M4 on Wednesday night.

After being pulled over by police, he was administered a roadside breath test which returned a reading of 0.05.

He had his licence confiscated on the spot and is due to appear in Windsor Local Court on February 28.

In a separate incident, another male driver will appear at Bankstown Local Court on March 5 after allegedly driving at 154kmh in a 70kmh area of the Hume Highway at Chullora, in Sydney's west.

Damn straight! it's 4:30am on the M5 down past Narellan rd. hahahaha jks

it's been a problem since the 1920's when cars began to reach speeds that could kill. Pot aka M.J, aka reefer has been illegal to grow since <insert year>. it should be extinct by now, but it isn't! why? because banning **** doesn't make it go away. I'm all for arguing when you get done for 15-30km/h over the limit (depending on time and place). but doing 203km/h on a road when everyone else is doing less than half that speed is just knobbiness at it's best - Best case, he hits the wall and takes himself out of the gene pool, worse case is that he takes someone else with him (who could one day potentially produce a really really hot daughter or something hahahaha - i think that sounds really bad, doesn't it?)

Driver charged after travelling at 203kmh on M4 – Operation Taipan

Friday, 15 Feb 2008 05:28am

Police have warned drivers about the dangers of speeding after officers attached to Operation Taipan caught one driver allegedly travelling at almost 100kmh over the speed limit.

A Toyota Corolla was detected allegedly travelling at 203kmh in a 110kmh area of the M4 on Wednesday night. The male driver underwent a roadside random breath test which proved positive. A subsequent random breath test proved positive and a breath analysis returned a reading of 0.05.

The 23-year-old’s licence was confiscated on the spot and he will appear in Windsor Local Court on 28 February to answer allegations of driving at a speed dangerous to the public and exceeding the speed limit by more than 45kmh.

Meanwhile, a man will appear in Bankstown Local Court on 5 March after a driver was detected travelling at 154km in a 70kmh area of the Hume Highway at Chullora.

Bankstown Police confiscated the driver’s licence on the spot and the driver will appear in Bankstown Local Court on 5 March to answer allegations of driving at a speed dangerous to the public and exceeding the speed limit

Acting Traffic Services Commander, Superintendent Ron Mason, said the number one cause of fatal crashes was speeding.

“While people might be angry and disappointed they have been pulled over by the police, they should also be grateful,” Superintendent Mason said.

“There is the potential that we might have saved their lives or someone else’s. The aftermath of a crash is something we see every day when police have to give death messages to the loved ones of those killed in crashes.

“The attitudes towards putting the foot down might change dramatically if they ever could see what we see. That is one of the reasons why traffic cops are so passionate about what they do. It is not about ruining someone’s day – it is potentially saving someone’s life,” Supt Mason said.

I'd be careful doing that these days. There is a certain purple VE SS that i see pretty frequently on that stretch of the M5, and half the time he has someone pulled over! ;)

Edit - Not that im saying you would do that! lol

probably an old school corolla from one of the other forums

Well it probably was silver in colour cause they are the only ones N/A that can easily reach that sort of speed... :toast:

      ASV50 Camry Head Unit Options

      I have a 2014 Atara SL with the JBL Navigation head unit, it's getting a bit long in the tooth and I'd like to add Android Auto so I'm curious about what other owners have done. I don't want to lose the reverse camera and the dynamic guidelines, there are also some other car functions as part of it that would be good to keep. I have seen plug in modules that wire in that add the functionality to the existing unit so it's possible to keep it and switch between stock and android but I haven't seen a specific one for this model JBL unit. Has anyone had success with a later model Toyota unit bolting in?

      1zz-fe engine rebuild

      Hello all, Working on my 2002 corolla. It needs a engine rebuild due to burning oil out the back. It has over 400,000 km on it and I havent looked after it. Everything is still original on the motor. The only thing that I have replaced, was the brushes on the alternator. They were completely worn out. I am pulling the motor/gearbox out of the car. Wont know the condition of the block or head until I strip it down. I know the design of the piston where changed in the 2003+ models for more oil holes, which stopped the buring of oil. 1. Was there any other changes made ? 2. Does anyone know of where I can get a engine rebuild kit for 1zz-fe motor in australia ? 3. I have only found one place that I can get a new short motor built but that is in the USA and they do ship to australia but was hoping to find something in australia Thanks for help. Dragon

      2007 Corolla Sedan rear seatbelt question

      Hi everyone, new member here. I've got a small problem which I'm hoping you can help me sort out. I've read the "read me first" thread and done a forum search so apologies if this ends up being a repost. Ok, so I've just has a bloody mouse chew through the rear seat and half (but only half) of every rear seatbelt. Which is nice. So I need to replace them. The problem I appear to have is that none of the local breakers have any suitable vehicles that I can pull them from and the ones I ordered and was sent from the bay of fleas has the wrong brackets on, despite being allegedly for that vehicle. Further searches come up with every seller showing the wrong bracket, so either I've got a special car which is different just because, or (more likely) they don't know their ****s from their elbows what they're selling. I'm after some aftermarket ones as they never get used and just need to be there to get through rego so don't really want to spend a heap of cash I don't have on genuine parts if I can avoid it. I've replaced the centre one (a mate just randomly had it in a box in his shed, which was handy) but still need the left and right. I've attached the bracket type I pulled from the car and need. Is this a standard generic Toyota seatbelt or specific to the 2007 Corolla sedan? Does is need to be specifically for the rear left and right or do front ones fit? Does anyone know where I can source an aftermarket pair? I will really, really appreciate any help offered with this, I know my way around a box of tools but very little about mechanikicing (which is part of the reason why I bought this car - something simple to learn on as repairs/replacements become due) and this is a simple fix which is turning into a drawn out headache. Thanks - Matt

      Hi from Wagga

      Hi folks, I'm in Wagga, have what I thought was a nice, cheap and reliable 2007 Corolla, and am joining in the hope of picking the collective brain to troubleshoot and avoid tossing my computer and the relevant car parts out of the nearest window. I'll play nice and restrict the swearing to off line areas :D See you on the threads! Cheers Matt

      Amplifier 88650-60D60 no longer made

      Hi all, Wondering if anyone has had this issue. I recently purchased a 2007 200 series landcruiser, and the amplifier for the air con unit stopped working. Part number 88650-60D60. (Looks like a circuit board) All controls for the air con now do not work, very frustrating in winter when you dont have any way to unfog your windscreen. Toyota have informed me that they no longer produce this part, and there is nothing superseeded to fit in it's place. My question is has anyone had this problem? If so what did you do to fix it? I have got onto an auto sparky who has had a go at fixing the circuit board but its unserviceable. Any feedback would be much appreciated.
