its funny because i said i would be seeing blood, but somewhere someone has to say enough...violence will only perpetuate the problem. Bashing people wont solve the issue it will make it worse.

It seems the 'one punch can kill' campaign isn't really having an effect or is it, what do people think about it?

then again mate, you never know what the true story could be.

yeah very true, but considering the police knew some of the guys that bashed them, they must be known hooligans around the city. but yeah my instincts tell me in this case that it wasnt ther fault, but i could be wrong.

there are allot of assumptions and generalisations in this thread...

remember there is always two sides to a story, i heard today the driver of the car is wanted by the police for questioning about other "criminal" matters...

so one might assume the attackers knew the victim in this particular case, and this was some form of payback or warning...

never know...

yes col, u never know, but u only see one side of the story on tv, im just going off what i saw, anyway, bashing people is just shitty especially in packs, i mean there is better ways to get back at some 1 face to face one on one. then see how tough some 1 is. the worts thing is most of the time its not worth reporting bcoz the police file a paper and it goes into the filing cabinet never to be heard of again, unless its pretty serious. people get bashed daily but i bet halfof them arent reported bcoz of the image that people portray of the police not following things up.

Steve if i was you i would seeing blood, about 4Gs worth for the people who vandalised your wheels for no reason.

ease up on the gross generalisations people, why are some people saying all Australians (Please note the country you live in is spelt with a capital) are violent wankers. allot of this shit only happens in cities where people think they are 'thugs' or 'gansta' which is well known to be a city/hood culture. Australians who live outside this American ideal of every man for himself bullshit are some of the best people/mates i have ever known.

this is why i hate cities, everyone should spend sometime in the outback jackrooing or something to instill some mateship back into city culture.

well said.....

there is two sides toe very story but im sure no one deserved hospital outta it

sad times

Well it still isn't as bad as America here... I mean one of my dads mates moved here about 20 years ago because there were armed gaurds at his sons high school. And they didn't exactly live in the slums. I mean, we are MILES off that.

Anyway, I completely blame this attack on TV, specifically 'Underbelly' its a bad influence on children, look what happens!

Few other comments, people paying out commodoores, its just as bad as paying out skylines... Same thing different name. And don't give me the whole skylines are better thing. Both cars are made for a market which is COMPLEATLY DIFFERENT. If holden shut down tomorrow there would be a lot of Aussies out of work. Moving on from that.

As a few people have said, that sort of attack is never 100% unprovoked. Some one has done something, said something, or it could be more sinister being someone hasn't paid thier debts, or is on someone elses 'turf'.

Now to the blokes who had thier cars trashed by vandals, thats a different story. Thats just some chronic bad luck. Maybe look at changing insurers to someone who does cover vandalism, if you haven't already.

hey, ive just noticed that, even tho there is two sides to this story, we have found out , most of us have seen dumb crap for no reason, at mostly at skylines :ninja:..

hey, some one said booby trap the car, i swear i seen in a country somewere and they had flame throwers under the sides of the car, so if its stolen and they get to close to the passanger and drivers sides doors, flame throwing that reach about 60cms :D GROUP BUY? :(

South Africa bud. Its to stop the coons car jacking. :ninja:

Another show to look at is "Dangerous" on fox 8 - far worse then underbelly IMO, it basically glorified car theft of imports...

Someone said holden makes for a market, and that we shouldnt give crap on holdens cause its the same same as giving crap on lines. Well I dont really dislike holden cars. I mean I dont think there a good car, I think there poorly built etc but thats not my beef with them, just a reason why I wouldnt buy one. The main reason I dislike seeing a "tough" commodore is because of the demograph of people who drive them. Hard-nut terry tough-kent wankers for the most part, as thats the market holden caters to. Its why they keep putting bigger motors in there cars rather then trying to say, go a smaller turbo motor or get something like v-tech going. The bogan wankers wouldnt understand how it works. They'd go "less cubes? oh noes!"

/end rant.

+1

Is there a place to move to that isnt full of wankers and criminals? I want to go there...

Switzerland....every one has to join the Army for a year, and when you are on your way home you just wander around on the train with your gun, it is a pretty freaky sight. Yet it is amongst the contries with the least amount of gun deaths. All the busses ect are on an honesty system if they did that here the public transport system would be broke in 10 seconds! that is a society that has its shit together with respect towards each other and trust in one another. My mates apartment and many others dont even have a lock on the door

This is where comprehensive insurance comes in... it's called damage whilst parked... you pay ur excess, the company repairs ur car... Any company that wont cover that under comp I'd be steering clear of.

Now imagine if National Service was still in here and all the do-gooders that want this that and the other stopped weren't around... Australia would be nowhere near as bad as it was. Kinda like in the paper today that Anna Bligh is considering bring in double demerit points during holiday periods if it really does reduce the road tolls like other states.... When they start educating people properly when they are young might be a better start to sorting out crap like the OP was speaking about and the violence going on... that as well as stop slapping these tools on the wrists and letting them go.

There would definately be 2 sides to the story with the OP, I told my olds and mum said there was something else recently where some driver threw their cig butt out the window and someone picked it up and threw it back in the car. I think she said this was a woman in the car, but could be something along those lines as well and stuff being said...

to all you armchair justice leaguers; why bother with two sides of the story?

NOTHING justifies getting beaten up that badly.

period.

edit: those of you that think the guys in the skyline may have deserved what they got, pending information, are f**king idiots and no better than street thugs

So many examples that I know of, that could justify this situation. For example money.

Downside to Switzerland is they banned all kinds of motorsport since an F1 crash back in the 50's or 60's that killed 80 people or something. Im sure that they have something, but it wont be big.

A long time ago i had an idea for an addition to a car alarm that gives people that mess with your car an electric shock. Its a simple circuit that could be enabled when the central locking has locked all the doors. It would work when the car is stationary, or if your at the lights, and would at the very least give you a few seconds to drive off while a would be attacker is left wondering what just shocked the hell out of them. I might put this on my to-design list again...

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
