Supposidly he booted it, the ass went out, he clipped the high gutter which sent him flyin into a parked car... no breaks...

thankfully nobody was hurt, even more of a reason why we need a motorsport complex on the coast.. to get people to stop trying to drift on suburban streets ffs

sh*t he must have been carrying a bit of speed....this will do wonders for the image of imports and the general car scene on the coast. Cant wait to see it on the news tomorrow, I think I can already guess the story!

yeah, great... guess i should de-register the 31 and lock it in the garage for the next 6 months... i'd already had a chat with the local laws of maroochy tonite, and basically.. there nuckling down after Jd and the rest died when they hit the tree.. the pressures on.. and young people in performance cars are now a big target

as quoted from a female officer tonite "You drive a skyline, that is a hoon car, the only reason you drive it is because it is a hoon car, even if you dont want to admit it, even if you drive it around normally, you drive around in packs and encourage others to hoon"

woo.... joys

This was one of the guys of the www.sunshinecoastcruising.com forum....his car was, from what ive read on there pushing out around 400hp with a big single....no real details of the engine that I could find without looking properly. The police have no idea what "hooning" even is they just classify it as driving in anything modified now, its rediculous but thats how it is and this type of thing only reinforces the distorted image they already have of the modified car scene.

it was claimed to have had over 500rwhp, but when we saw i run the other weekend it wasnt impressive at all and ceratinly not performing to its claimed 500hp although it did have a bucket load of money spent on it, he used to own a blue r33 and another r33 before that and was active on this forum at one stage. Its a shame cause it was a nice car but you do stupid things in public areas stupid consequences will eventually occur

god is she a dyke. typical uneducated cop off the street. I dont think thats a fair statement to say to a community that enjoys automotive recreation. my 2c.

:P

this makes me incredibly sad, really :wave:

a gun doesn't make someone a murderer, the person who uses it incorrectly is the murderer

stupid f**kwit police, and stupid f**kwits in imports

Yeah, well, if i drive around in my car most times under the speed limit, and they classify me as a hoon, then what do they classify the dickwit business men in their m3's or bmw's who do 160 on the highway?

and fair enough young people who drive performance cars sometimes crash, like the accident up ere with JD and the rest of em in the statesman which hit the tree and killed 3 of em, now there all full on about hoons etc, but they need to even it out a bit and stop pushing the blame onto performance car/import drivers because geez ive watched the news and seen the reports on familys dying while towing there caravan etc but they dont target them, im sure mr business man isnt paranoid about the police when he goes to his car of a evening.... why should I have to feel paranoid because i drive a nice car?

:laugh:

this topic sort of shifted abit. I think the point is the guy knew how fast the car was, hes been driving high performance cars for awhile now & he should of known better than to drive so crazy on a suburban public street. Theres nothing worse than having your car damaged by another bad driver.

unlucky buddy,

That's not UNLUCKY, that's f#k'n STUPIDITY!!!

The sooner we as a collective realise & act upon the fact that stupid acts by an absolute minority of Import owners/drivers are the reason we all get un-fairly targeted for the cars that we choose to drive the sooner we may be able to have that attitude reversed.

:laugh: Comments like "Unlucky buddy" & the mentality that goes with it do NOT help our cause........ :ermm:

But, if we are all REALLY honest, its pretty true. I know lots of people who go down the coast, they dont race, yet they are always in the pack to watch the races... As the saying goes, you dont buy a fast car to not go fast.

I’m sceptical at 500rwhp. But that’s not the point.. Rodgers mates drive this Supra like fools, if in fact it was one of his mates driving; this crash does not surprise me to be honest.

Shame though, was a nice car, and sounded sexy as.

I believe tonight on the New’s they did yet ANOTHER Hoon story, using this Supra? Or perhaps it’s on tomorrow.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
