Free Speech Rights & Australian Law

"Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression; this right shall include freedom to seek, receive and impart information and ideas of all kinds, regardless of frontiers, either orally, in writing or in print, in the form of art, or through any other media of his choice."

hahaha thanks for warning me im not a mod geee so that means i dont have to follow the rules yeah?>

Steve has a point, as do ya'll...

a) One rule is for the users of this website - follow their rules or hit the highway

b) One rule is a federal law for speech in general.

When you sign up for SAU, you are asked to abide by the terms and conditions. These usually encompass rules which go above and beyond the law, or have a caveat that you are willingly becoming a member on the condition that you forfeit that right on this individual forum. So you're both right..

That said, the rule was to stop people trash talking a business when it isnt justified - sometimes this happens.

And on the flipside, if there was a shithouse business out there, I would not want to give them my business - which is where the rule comes in, as the mods of this forum dont want businesses to lose customers on the basis of a single report (which could be biased and unverified). Ultimately the mods have discretion, and its a grey area at best.

I think a bit of flexibility is required. For example, I posted a very vague reference to a dodgy auto electrician near my house and never got cautioned or pmmed about it. I think its more a safety clause incase a business threatens SAU with libel suit. Andrew and Pete could possibly add more to this, but tbh it comes down to commonsense. You can post your experiences publicly without naming names, and if people are that concerned they can always PM you to ask you your personal (and more importantly, unpublished and uncensored) opinion.

-D

EDIT : Remember, if you defame someone in speech or audio its slander. In print it's Libel and attracts a more severe legal penalty.

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

    • They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
