aaha funny shit i checked it out, what a load of crap thoe i do like the idea a blocking off the road while two cars drag in front on the freeway. Thoe the incident with the mums driving her sons car "trying to do a burnout" haha fcuking lolz. RalliArt Magna Full Sik Non-Turbo...lolz :) Wouldnt mind checking out the inpound of all the cars they got, prob the cops take them out for spins when they have some time.

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 think that was in qld. correct me if i'm wrong someone.

different laws would apply in nsw

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!

i think that was in qld. correct me if i'm wrong someone.

ok. but then i'd be wrong.

different laws would apply in nsw

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

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
