best time for Hills driving: anywhere between 9pm to 9am

early morning (6-9am) is generally best for high speed bike riding :bunny:

dont go around giving them ideas now.

the zx9r looks nice btw, rode one a while back and really liked it, would prefer a zx7r over it though... just felt better to ride as a sports bike. the zx9r was a bit sluggish but it did have a good 60,000kms on it.

I found my old ZX7R awkward to ride. Felt too much like an old RGV in the riding position ... be a nightmare for Tangles to ride. The ZX9R is far more 'balanced' in its handling and performance. Rode my mate's ZX9R a few weeks back when I tuned his suspension and didn't mind the 9 much. But then again, any bike with carbs will feel sluggish ... throw on a set of flat slides :bunny:

good points made too ruby!at least there veiws on publishing comments isnt 'totally' biased.but its close

Its not just taxis and commercial truck drivers ... there is no real "mould" for a hoon. Could be a 16yo in a Corolla or a 50yo in a Landcruiser!

Last night I had a 4WD cock attempt to run me into a traffic light while I had my 10yo lad with me. His attitude had obviously been fuelled by the import flaming from the media. Pulled up behind him at the South Rd/Seacombe Rd lights and he put the 4WD into reverse threatening to ram me! f**king hoon!

Had I hit the traffic light, I'm certain the media would have made the story read something like:

Nissan Import in Late Night Rampage

Last night, a high-powered turbo Nissan caused mayhem and carnage, when it lost control due to speed on South Road, Darlington. Mothers ducked for cover with their screaming children as debris from the violent collision was thrown for metres from the impact. Nearby service stations were put on emergency alert, fearing the impact would start a fire, threating the local community. The two occupants of the high-powered vehicle, a 36yo male driver and his 10yo son were lucky to survive such a horrific crash. The vehicle, a high-powered Nissan Stagea turbo, is believed to have or not have lost control when it tried to drag race a Ford 4WD on this dangerous stretch of suburban road. It is also alleged that the 36yo owner of the vehicle was drunk, and had in fact allowed his 10yo son to drive the high-powered import when the drag race occured, as the son had only smoked cannibas earlier that night.

When the Advertiser arrived on the scene, it is believed the male driver and his son may or may not have been in possession of drugs, pirate DVDs, and stolen goods. A witness to the collision who didn't want to be named said: "At least the owners are showing their support for the car crushing, by crushing their own cars!".

Police refused to comment about allegations the car had in fact been rammed off the road by a hoon in a Ford 4WD.

Why let the truth get in the way of a good story?

Hmm, I have a gift ... I should write for the Advertiser!!! :bunny:

lol @ this comment

And who do you think would buy a car like that, Paddy of Melbourne 2:09pm? Even if you dismantled it, who would buy the parts? That's right; another hoon. Any hoon vehicle that hasn't been sold as new by an Australian dealer should be crushed. Hopefully, this will protect the real enthusiasts, like most WRX and Evo owners.

This isnt helping our cause at all - atleast it wasnt a Skyline...

I'm not going to read through the comments because it will make me angry lol

Silly media, cant even state what is the car is correctly.

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • 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'
