I could see this shit happening after the stuff from last week.

Personally I have never seen the interest in hanging out at a fast food carpark anyway. This just shows another reason why.

bell st maccas will b the next one 2 b like this

I couldn't agree more with R31Nismoid and others on here who said that this was just a recipe for disaster because the police never crack down when they should - instead they wait for something ridiculus like this to occur then they respond by cracking down on all 'enthusiasts/imports/modified' cars.

What irks me the most is that only 5 people were arrested (so far). These people, at worst, will have their car impounded for a few days then be back at it. I know of retards who have had their licence cancelled, only to keep driving, getting caught, going to court and then getting a left-wing fairy of a judge who reckons the world is all strawberries and roses and these poor people have learnt their lesson now.

My best mate was killed by one of these people who drink and drive at ridiculus speeds (not a modified car). The top bloke still has his licence, is still on the roads and wont even go to trial till 2008. The 'accident' (i call it murder) occured in June 2005!

What does it take? Police are so brave and righteous when you are on your own and driving responsibly, happy to tell you all the defects/problems with your car, but congregate in a violent mob of over 800, damage property and assault people and have nothing to worry about? I mean, come on, this is beginning to really get out of hand.

My 2c worth, sorry if I came across a little peeved, but this is a issue I am rather passionate about (in case you hadn't picked up on it) :no:

Cheers,

Dan

sorry to hear about ur mate - and what you have said is very true, and it doesnt look like it will change for a while yet. Thats what angers everyone. The law is just too lenient on the crims...thats all there is to it. Toughen up the law, and this shit wont happen.

btw kamikazeR33 - which forums had said that they were going to go sick if the cops turned up?

This kinda stuff is pathetic at best, and an absolute disgrace for a more apt description. I've hung out in car parks with mates talking till the wee smalls of the morning, i've gone on cruises. but i've NEVER done shite this stupid.

i'm gonna make myself some enemies by saying this, but if anyone ever tells me they were involved in this crap or something similar i'll be having crime stoppers on speed dial.

dickheads like that deserve to be made to watch as their car is crushed, then shot in the knees, then castrated.

i can't remember what channel it was but i saw a quick glimpse around 2.30pm, it showed the idiots throwing things around in the blockbuster store

yeah was on the news. my mates gf was just telling me about it. She said the video footage of the Blockbuster stuff was pretty sad.

yep sad shit done by some sad cases....see, these morons probably used up all of melbournes water as well.....

apparently the police organised fire trucks to come down so they can disperse the mob with a water cannon.

Australia's future as a country is not looking too bright in the foreseeable future, reminds me of what France went through last year, however not as extreme but you never know, it could one day happen here in Australia. At least in France they rioted for a whorthwile cause (lower class people's futures/jobs).

mate what are u on about? you come what happened to france and this? Its like comparing a R34GTR Ztune to a Toyota Celica with a flat tyre. A few people in a country of what..20,735,146 (yes thats the latest) get drunk and cause trouble and the country is in turmoil?

do u see whats going on around the world? perspective please.

This issue will be gone in 2 days. No1 cares about a few drunk people hooning about smashing a few windows and acting like idiots - have u been to the UK or even europe after a big football match? in reality is not the biggest issue facing the state/country/world today.

Hey, rioting for the right to rip skids on a public road is a damn worthy cause. I fact rioting against our enemy, the police is the only reason you need y0! :no:

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
