Dont know if anyone here just saw ten news, but it showed an 18 year old man, who went into court for offences such as driving without a supervising driver (he was on his learners).

The police are trying to get his car permanently impounded.

He also led police through a high speed chase a few months ago.

He was going 120kph through residential streets, with police eventually calling off the chase when it got to speeds of over 160kph.

His car was a black (or was it midnight purple) R33 Gts-t with the plates MRGTST

If you're on this forum, i hope you car gets impounded, maybe that will teach you to be a d!ckhead on public roads.

Its c@nts like you that give the whole scene a bad name.

Hope this doesn't effect and liners out there, even though it probably will.

That's all i have to say.

don't mean to sound like an ass...

but this is getting too annoying, everytime someone does something illegal on public roads and gets cought etc its always "you moron thanks for making the rest of us look bad etc etc etc etc"

he got cought and he's obviously paying for it so just get over it.

it's nothing new it's always been like this why does it surprise you?

behave, do your part and stop bitching about what others do.

sheeeesh

again, don't mean to sound rude...

Yeah I saw that on 7 news a minute ago. No matter what anyone says you cant justify being caught 7 times in 16 days for offences on your L's unless you are a total di(khead. So thanks Mark Russel for bringing more heat to out scene.

On a positive note i'm currently looking for a black 33 so I'll keep my eyes peeled for it at the police auctions!

Yeah saw it just then as well. I agree that its completely stupid what he did, but really who really cares anymore about having people look down on skylines now. Seriously between noble park and hoons and skylines and everything else whats the point of having a winge about it anymore ^^^!

Own a skyline, drive it how you like, be prepared to get caught and accept punishment. Simple as that.

Yeah look its all blah blah blah. No point in complaining. People will make up their own minds about Skyline drivers and looks like many already have.

Convince one person otherwise, fine, but people as a collective are stupid and naive and will have their minds made up for them, i.e by the media. *cough* ACA etc

Unfortunately anything we say falls on deaf ears.

agreed. cops dont hear about it and go "ok things are now worse for skyline drivers"

Like the others said, the majority of liner's are mature & respect the roads, safety and the laws for good reason.

Everyone knows what can happen when abusing this.

I've cruised with the QLD fraternity recently and all were well behaved and drove sensibly.

When parked we saw 2 180's racing a 33 off the lights and someone could have been hurt in the process.

They're idots, most aren't.

The powers that be (ok, maybe with the exception of one in Melb) soon work out who to hassle and who to let be.

Just be good and enjoy/appreciate your rides, coz one day you'll have kids & drive a boring family car!

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      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

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      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.
