man im kinda glad i dont live in Oz anymore. It was this kind of " kick the guy when hes down" attituted that was a deciding factor in my move to Tokyo. except in this case its only a kid. Where do people get off sticking the boot in? So what if he blew his motor? thats a price he was going to have to be willing to pay when doing the things he did.

the video on youtube? didnt see it. And judging by the replys a lot of others didnt either. Thats not the point anyway. You harpoon this kid while at the same time hiding the fact that when we were P platers we did exactly the same bloody things..

so you think "hypocrites" isnt an appropriate word for people who act like this? I do.

and i wont hide the fact that i did stupid things behind the wheel when i was 18. lots of dumb things. more than just inside a car. you ALL did too.

cut him some slack. No ONE got hurt. His engine is gonna cost a motza to fix. If he had any brains after this hed take a defensive driver course or get a cams license. and let loose on a circuit.

Many of you fail to realise and understand that this is not reasonably or practically viable n many instances. So people resort to the street. The kids BIGGEST mistake, more thaan letting rip or blowing his motor was posting on Youtube. Its made millionaires into buffons and no-ones into someones. Unfortunately, in this case, it showed his stupidity to the world and with it SAU members.

dont rip him because of the double edged sword the internet is. advice should be given. Not a beating.

get a bloody grip.

Aww, everytime theres one of these it gets deleted b4 i get to see it, i sorta don't see why a burnout is such a big deal anyway.. Spose because of the stickers.. =.=

and look at the lynching the kid copped because of it.

you know...NO-ONE else on SAU ( heaven forbid!! ) would do anything of the sort! wouldnt be seen dead with smoke comiing off the tyres...

and posting it on the internet with club stickers showing....being a club member is completely different from joining the forum.

the point being made... was that he was giving the club a bad name by being a dick on public roads.. with people around, whilst having the club stickers on his car.

im the first to admit im no angel on the roads... ive never once stated i am. but being a sick c**t at sum random industrial estate at 3am where theres noone around is different to a main road in sydney.

thats the point... its giving the club a bad name. the club and forum are 2 different things...

if you have the skylines australia stickers on the car, your representing the club by doing so... thats the point being made.

yep, nobody cares, not giving the club a bad name. It's kinda like cheating on vce exams and getting caught, you did it not the rest of your school, but your school still gets a bad name to the public not you.....

i made my point with the first few posts.

the other posts ive made in this thread are just correcting people such as yourself or agreeing with someone else...

ok i did see the video..

he was on a main road.. the wheels were not just spinning and smoking.. the car was moving around, he obviously didnt know how to control it, the car in front of him started to move away cos he couldnt tell where the car was going to slide off to next..

its was a stupid thing to do, in the middle of the day, in the main road at wisemans ferry, on a hill.. with cars parked around him, people trying to drive on the road and people walking past.

i for one, can say, I have NEVER done some thing like that.

and then to say he was proud of doing it, is even more stupid.

I have stuck up for you in the past Alex. but this is just stupid..

this is just as bad as you getting pulled over doing, what was it again, 40 over the speed limit? in a 60/70 zone?

im not sticking up for you this time buddy

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
