I'm in the Belco area. My brother's car (Honda 4 banger, nice looks but nothing overly special) just had a massive brick thrown through his passenger window. We heard a smash and a loud car like another honda/hyundai/something with a big canon exhaust on it hoon away. I rushed out and stood quietly on the street corner and could actually hear the same car going around Page/Scullin area, revving up high in second gear, then slowing down, very frequently, and repeatedly up and down the streets, like someone looking for something (more ppl to vandalise or attempt to steal I guess). I WISH my car wasn't in the shop atm, or I would have been after them like a shot, and I reckon I coulda tracked them down just by pulling over and listening for their srupidly loud engine noise telegraphing their position half a suburb away... especially in the cold morning air!

I'm so annoyed right now. One of my brothers front tyres blew out on him only 3 days ago, he's been patiently putting up with giving me lifts around to get my car sorted, and now this ****. I'm not a vigilante, but I would have found em, got their rego/make/model and maybe followed from a VERY long distance while having a passenger call the police to catch them.

There aren't words to describe how frustrating it is, and that's ME, not him - he'd be more p1ssed off! And MAN does it suck having slow-witted parents who are too scared to even go outside when they think a vandal is 'on the loose'.

Did anyone else in that area get vandalism, or notice any stupidly loud-exhausted cars going up and down streets??? It happened at about 2.50pm and they were cruising around the suburbs for at least the next 15 minutes, EASILY heard from several streets away. If so, PM me! WE'RE FUMING!!!!! :D:)

Errr I guess it would sound like every other little four cylinder car with a farty exhaust on it. I couldn't tell... just heard if hoon off, then it going up and down the streets in Scullin in a very 'wandering' fashion. Excess is gonna be $1600 (noone to point the finger at, and bro is under 25, with just cars). A friend of his said his Prelude's window was 600 itself to fix, and there's panel damage on my bro's, so we figure easiest to just make the claim and be assured the repairs will be good (or sorted out if the insurance repairer stuffs it up, as we know they can).

    • 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.
