BrownyR31 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Cation on the motorways today guys. Drove back from Noosa this morning watching many cars sliding off the road into poles (and one hilux hitting an overpass). Im happy I had awd in many cases as my torque split dial was dancing away even when sitting on 80km/h in a straight line.

666DAN Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Yeah ive been back down the coast for a bit over a year now, was in mackay working up there for a bit but got over the rain season, was still the same turbo you got off me? Yep same turbo, I had a look after it came off the car. It was a really easy repair, bearing pack was still rock solid and no play, just some impeller nicks on the outer tips. Just sounded worse than it was as the nut was really tiny and getting recirculated like being in a food processor. If it had blown through to the I/C I would probably still have the car as basically I wouldn't have heard it.

At downshift they weren't super bad, like we rolled straight past them in the celica which is audibly to loud and visually to low with blast pipes etc and they just had a look and that was all that came of it lol.

Ants Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Look, these dip sticks that do skids, burnouts, and all sorts of other stupidity on public roads are the ones to blame for the increase in police presence and more stringent penalties / harshness. If people can just be sensible that would be super, but unfortunately we all tend to silly things sometimes (including me, been there done that but I learned very quickly and already new I was in the wrong at the time) To give an example: The other weekend, it was raining pretty much like it is today (on the Coast) and was driving sensibly in our little Suzuki Swift with my wife (who is pregnant) and slowly started to brake before a round-about and some d!ckhead on the opposite side with his elevated Toyota Hilux was trying to drift around the round-about without realising that there was some soaked junk mail at the end of the round-about and lost control of his vehicle and skidding straight for us! My initial thoughts were 'well were boned'. Considering the small car we have and the car he has and the speed and momentum he was carrying. I could see he was trying to counter lock the skid. I managed to just sneak passed him before he flew over the other-side of the road. It is idiots like above that should be punished for that kind of behavior not people that just want to meet as a club and talk about their cars and what they have done to them!

t5iv Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Well, SAU isn't a club built on members who are tools on the road. What we find is that the knobs who come to events are quickly ostricized. This is why we're conducting a blood drive to smash the AUstralia record for most donations by an automotive group. We want the public to see that we are responsible members like everyone else - not flat cappers with no driving ability! Who's in for the blood drive?
