So you have all concluded danielson did this? Because I'm not sure if anyone has meantioned this.... but the rims in the Herald Sun photo are white... NOT CHROME. I also don't see the decals down the side. At first I thought you guys were joking but now I don't know. :P

relax, i think everyone mucking around, right from the start i said the rims look whiete and theres no stickers.

Just on that note (by the way I'm not trying to say it was danielson lol!)...

If you put chrome wheels on your car that are a pretty full design (ie not spokey - don't know how to explain it, say danielsons is a full design and r34 wheels are a spokey design)... and then take a photo of it with the light reflecting off them... what colour would they come up in when you printed them in a news paper? (ie not on a ring-a-ding photo printer)....???

I know what colour i'd guess they came out as (that light reflection is a key factor i believe).

just for curiosities sake? anyone?

(p.s. excuse the poor spelling)

Wouldn't be the first time a police department pulled a stunt like this in order to validate a crackdown on 'hoons'.

Think about it. They buy a Skyline, give it big wheels and fancy paint, take a few (bad) photos of it doing stupid things, and woila, they've got an excuse to pick on ALL of us.

The car might have cost around $30,000 including paint and rims, and now they can jack up the price of fines they give us, which will probably bring in another few hundred thousand dollars a year.

Not bad thinking, eh?

and that wouldnt be the first time i've heard of someone saying something similar to that either.

same goes for aca and shows like that whenever they wanna make stories out os "hoons" etc.

they go out... find a bunch of bored p platers and stuff, tell them to jst drive like idiots, video it... then wind it into some bullshit story.

i read it in an article somewhere once. cant remember where. but dont think it doesnt happen.

Haha.this thread is so amusing.We all jump to a conclusion.Then we change our minds.lol.

Personally i dont think that he did it.But having said that i havent seen all of the pics of the car in question that were in the paper.All i saw was a bike doing a front wheel stand.

Belive it man.They would go to extrordinary legnths to get the right information and pics for a news story.

point out where i agreed with anywhere in the previous 4 pages?

i didnt. i dont believe any of the media's bullshit at all.

its hard to believe when... you turn on one ch and see a story, turn on the next see the basic same story but twisted slightly... and then on the other channel the same thing but twisted slightly again.....

Need to remember that they throw around this stuff to sell newspapers, and get ratings.

Most of these pop journalists have as much integrity as a used car salesman.

Remember the Today Tonight video of the WRX, which was actually from New Zealand? They went on and on for weeks about how they were going to do something about "hoons on our roads".

Then remember the photos of the "hoons" that theyd pulled off the internet?

I'd take it all with a seriously big grain of salt.

The biggest problem is idiots on the road without basic driving skills, like knowing how to merge at speed, following basic road rules, and keeping safe distances between the vehicle in front.

In my area at least "hoons" in "hotted up cars with big exhausts" are outnumbered 100 to 1, by retarded soccer mums who drive over roundabouts and curbs in 4WDS.

    • Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R. 
    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
