Hey guys, i was just driving into town goin up Main north road, and the traffic is banked up badly. Im thinkin wtf is goin on. Anyway 5 mins later, near subway, there is a white EB? Falcon which was on its roof. It had taken out a tree and was half on the footpath, half on a fence belongin to a car yard.

I was like daim, how the hell could that happen.

Anyway it looked pretty bad.

i heard it was someone who did a runner from a petrol station, clipped a car and hit all the cars at the front of the yard, flipped and hit a stobey... needless to say he ended up in the morgue...

Is what I heard correct?

I was on my way to Fresh FM back in the days when I used to get up at 4 am and work there at some ungodly hour. And there was a high speed chase coming out of town with a skyline and a wrx, and the cops were behind em chasing em. Highly stupid but highly entertaining.

thats sad .. well today i was driving into town in the early hours of the morning .. anyways whats the road called coming out of the city into north adelaide where u can turn off hindley street?? anyways on that road i saw a 180sx which obviously tried some drifting .... smashed on the front right hand side ... probably hit the tree next to it cause the size of damage seemed to match the size of the tree next to it ... hope it wasn't anyone on this forum ...

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
