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.

    • Call me the "Crazy Cat Man"...., maybe that should be my new forum name....LOL....., but seriously.....someone change it please, thanks Just grabbed the two black Oriental kittens that I ordered a few months ago to guard the house, I am assuming that because they are Orientals they know KungFu, Karate, or are Ninjas, or some other lethal fighting skill, even at only 3 months old they already have Parkour down pat Introducing...Bella & Donna
    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
