hey guys,

just wondering if any of you happened to be on gouger street saturday night. between 1-2am

i just happened to be driving through at the time to pick up a friend, and i heard all these bang sounds and then alot of the cars in front of me were doing uturns, i thought nothing of it, i just thought kids were fkin round with firecrackers or something, and then i turned down the side street just before Esco Bar to find a park and a sus looking silver 4wd was coming towards me and then suddenly reversed real fast and went the other way and gunned it out of there, everything was real smoky and all i kept hearing were bangs and i noticed there were smoking shell casings everywhere on the road.

just a story to tell you guys, i didnt get the number plate of the 4wd or anything, so not really any help to the police - but yeah, were any of you guys there and knew exactly what happened ?

Yeah, like the two diners who were there "hours before". They were probably miles away from it at the time :) Diners are usually ushered out about midnight at most venues. But trust the kiwis wanting to get into the spotlight on aussie soil :)

I'd have more warrant saying I was in London just days before the bombings, in those particular areas that were bombed ... which I was!

surely that would have made you think that it was a shooting?

1 shot or 500 shots.......its still pretty f**king dangerous.....specially in or around china town where it is busy most of the time anyway....public safety as risk....where are the cops when that happened....ohh thats right patrolling the streets looking out for hoons.....

yesterday morning i heard them say on the radio that there was a shoot out between 2 cars and there were about 15 shots fired between the 2 cars and they arrested 3 people over the incident.... But who knows what really happend what the media release is never the same as what happened.

I was out on the bike with a couple others till pretty late in Hindley last night, eating outside 'Yannis' but didn't hear anything from there.

Apparently Hells Angels were involved.

Hope no authorities are looking for our bikes.

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
