Yeah, my mum came racing into the dining room this evening..

"Mark Mark look! Skylines have been caught hooning!!"

my reply:

"Great, just what I f**king need, more attention by the boys and blue, and people giving me sideways looks because of what I f**king drive...."

Just kept eating my roast... The media always screws car enthusiasts and I really couldn't be buggered tonight...

Mind you, I got caught for hoon laws last year, so call me a hypocrite, but at least I had the consideration TO DO IT IN A FREAKING VL COMMODORE!!!!

Im sure there is just as many falcadore and commonwhore drivers being hoons too.

In every club/culture/instituion etc there is a minority that will do the wrong thing. Even the police force...thats why they have internal affairs etc.

It cant be stopped and the public will always brand the whole group the same!

Just have to live with it and move on.

lol lucky for me the news crew wasnt there 5 mins earlier.....

they were nailing plenty of cars that night,12 to be exact, car club part might have something to do with the fact there was a cruise on fri night, and the cops knew about it.

who says they were giving sauwa a bad rep?? no where did i see or hear them use the name of any clubs.

The government needs to make some more places where people can go and push their cars to the limit. We have a drag strip at the bottom of perth and a race track at the top of perth (which is pretty crap) and we just need more. They forget about all the people that are into cars

Yes im sure that all of the posters in this thread have never broken a law in their lives. :(

I suppose threads like are just a part of life as are news based shows making a fuss about "the menace on our streets: endangering our children and raping our pets"

Im in the "ignore it and it will go away" boat im afraid.

I'm so bored of these threads. If someone tells you your a hoon because of the car you drive.. slap em over the head or something and tell em to wake up to the fact that its people that drive cars not cars that drive people.

But anyway I'm sure pretty much everyone on here has done silly stuff in their cars at one stage.. you just didnt get caught on camera like that guy.

I'm not saying I've always been an angel on the road. I've had speeding fines and a car accident when I was 18. I have learnt from all that.

I just wish the media would stop generalising, as for the most part, I am a safe driver as I'm sure most of you are.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
