its was pretty obvious that it was just for show. why else would they have the 2 top chief of police in the car with them chasing down the "hoons". thats was funny how the cop said one car makes more noise than 8 cars put together. also if they catch you 3 times "hooning" aroung then they can confiscate ur car for good. that would really suck. but... if you wanted to be a smart arse could you sell ur car after getting caught 2 times and then re-buy a same model car?? do u htink this would work.

I missed it. Good to see some High Quality cars on TV and even better to hear that there was a Skyline this time!:)

At the end of the day the story achieved it's purpose, you watched it. Hey I only didn't catch it because I forgot!

Think about how popular cars have become around the streets? Of a weekend numerous fastfood outlets are logjammed with cars going nowhere and this is a potential audience for them to appeal to even if you know the story will label you, you still watch it.

The people who think you are now more of a hoon than ever have also watched this story thus expanding the viewer base and exposing more to the advertising after the segment.

It's all about ratings!!!!!!

I'd like to see this get off the ground:

I was recently at Ford spare parts in brookvale.

I saw a cop pick up a fully marked XR8, must have been in for service I guess.

He's absulutely woofed it out the driveway tires blazing and all (no sirens or lights mind you).

Then on my may out I saw him go flying past going around the block at ridiculous speeds.

My route home is actually past the Frenches Forest Police Station and on my way he has come screaming past me. I caught up to him at the next set of lights and followed him the rest of the way. All he was doing was going back to the cop station. No emergency, or need for speeding.

Just goes to show the cops like having fun in cars as much as we do! Bunch of hippos!

ok. but then i'd be wrong.

true dat.

but not by much. you can have your car confiscated for a short time, then months, then, if in 10 years, you get done being a hoon in a car, it can become "property of the crown" and sold at auction with no money gettin back to ya :P

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler?

      Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed

      the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box

      Plan B? Get someone to machine up a metal bush/collar/whatever it needs to be to replace the rubber? I haven't had a close look at that part recently to have a proper feel for whether that's possible. But it might be easy.

      I do not want to install a short shifter and the only other stock throw shifter I have seen is the Nismo "Rigid shifter" for $290 So plan A is to fill it with sikaflex to stiffen it up and hope for the best
