Well i have to say that now we have a really strong team, consider last night some of our best weren't playing and that was only a FRIENDLY match.

At least we're going to Germany and looking into our back ground soccer isn't so popullar here unlike most others continents, their team has more moeny to spend, big sponsors, die hard fans that's why most of our best players are playing oversea which is good for us anyway.

Really looking forward to AUSTRALIA VS JAPAN.

australia will be eliminated very early on in the world cup ... :D dislike it if u may but we as a soccor team SUCK ...

well compared to world standards

Yeah we suck so bad we've beat European and World champions :D

Australians have played in international teams since the 1850s, that's right 156 years of Australian international football players.

I would hazard a guess that every country in the world plays and we're one of the few in the World Cup.

We'll win the World Cup, maybe not this time around but it's coming. Johnny Warren said so.

all credit to australia they shut greece down in the first 5 min and that was it,,,the game was over..As far as the world cup gos i think australia has a very good chance as long as they beat japan in the opening game if that doesnt happen than they got no chance..

P.S i was at the game and i had 3 racist idiots sitting behind us saying burn the greek flag......idiots like that cant handle their alcohol coz once we stood up they become very appologetic......fooools ruined my night.

I watched the game at Brighton (Sydney), it was obviously full of Greeks, but when the aussie's scored, people still cheered which was good.

The game finished, Greece lost, flares still went off and everyone was celebrating. Night went off pretty much incident free suprisingly (expect for some lebanese guys that came down with a lebanese flag just trying to cause trouble).

Yea true remember when Australia also beat England in a friendly a few years back. You can't really jusge a team by how many friendlies they win. When it comes down to the crunch, thats when the men will sort themselves from the boys, - like greece did at Euro 2004

Yeah, those idiots dont deserve the tickets while a lot of other ppl miss out on them. I was right on top where most of the Flares went off made me inhaled all those smoke in :) .

well done to the aussies, they deserved to win, and they should've won by alot more.. greece barely had any chances and were never in the game, regardless being a friendly or not, i think they take the game seriously.. everyone thinks the australians arent any good, well they beat uruguay and i think there a failry good team, considering they usually make the world cup alot of the time. I think australia just might be alot better then what people think..

considering greece didnt even make the world cup lol...

was a great game by Australia, the Greeks hardly had a chance to score in the first half, then Aus switched to defense in the 2nd half, Greece took more posession of the ball but the defense did well to contain them.

good goal too, very good play kicking in from the corner over the box, the Greeks should of seen it coming because the Aussies tried the exact same thing just a few mins earlier. The game started to die down after that but still good overall.

only getting there and back was the real hassle of the night with some tossers on the train on the way home.

FYI I was not on the highest row possible in the 'G, but only the 2nd highest row lol :( wonderful view though...

although the soccer game was reasonable to watch, it's the after effects of the game that were the problem. i was working at flinders st and the actions of the crowd were absolutely pathetic.

it's the only word for it.

PATHETIC.

examples:

- a large group ( ten or more ) of greek supporters were beating a girl because she supported australia.

- greek supporters doing burnouts in the street before running up the back of a cop car.

- australian supporters throwing bottles at other fans.

this is only a fraction of what happened on the night, it was bad enough that SIX police response vans could not control the crowd at federation square.

not only did the greek fans reinforce the stereotype of being drunken wog hoons, but the australian fans were just as bad at promoting the yobbo image.

if this is what we resort to after a "friendly" soccer match, i'd hate to be around for the world cup matches.

if you were involved in the riots you are absolutely pathetic. it wasn't cool, it wasn't "fully sik uleh", it was just plain PATHETIC.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
