well no response in a couple of days from Anna Coren,,,,,, must definately be a jurno trying to be sneaky..... anything to get ratings,,,,, I want the Chaser boys to turn things around on them again lol

You mentioned Bankstown.. They live, breathe and steal cars for a living .. Of course they get impounded people around the area think 50km zone means its a airport runway.

Honestly I drive like a huge granma and often wonder if driving my car is worth it. Huge fuel costs, unlimited groupies, theft, insurance, attention from police (which i must say are always excellent to me.)

Sometimes I think I should trade in for a MX5.. that pulls chicks doesnt it?

well last night on ACA there was another "HOON" story, I have a suspision that the person that started this thread may have been involved with the story aswell.....

And with all honesty there is very little hooning going on in the streets of sydney anymore, very rarely are they organised events these days, if someone is dragging on the street you see them at the traffic lights, only just met eachother, give it a rev, lights turn green, they dump the clutches then the siren goes off and chases them lol, otherwise they do there little sprint and then head there separate ways.....

i drive every night (work night shifts) and have never come across an organised meet on the street, all i see are wanks reving at the lights, sometimes i give mine a rev while its still red and then let the other take off like an idiot while i purposely keep my foot on the clutch a second longer, i've already been suspended once, and im not going to cop it again.

usually i'm being asked by a shitty honda or a hyundai with an exhaust to a drag from the lights, f**k them i'm not going to let my R33 gts-t sex machine stoop down to there level, its embarrasing...

Brighton used to be the ammature street meet back in the day.... i drive through it every Friday (will do it again tonight) between 1am to 5am (sorry i mean Saturday morning by that time) to take my gf home to the shire from the city and the amount of coppers checking speed, random breath tests is unbelievable, every Friday i am pulled over and breath tested (obviously looking for an excuse to book or defect a green p plater in a turbo) and i asked the regular copper that breath tests me every week about the hooning problem in the area, he says they are long gone, only randoms that may have had a drink or 2 will do abit of a burn out, or somebody who has just had a dispute may speed off, otherwise the rest of the people know we'll jump on them asap.... he said something like that anyway....

god i hate ACA and today tonight,,,, not only about the hoons and p plate laws but every single stupid story (and thats all they are, stories) they have ever made, they never use facts, they always say "as to our knowledge" because they purposely only research what will give them a better story even when it bends the truth..... I really hate ACA for many things. thats why i liked watching the Chasers, they saw straight through the mirrors and smoke of ACA and Today Tonight

anyway if there is hooning why don't the cops target the hoons instead of wasteing there time trying to "prevent" hooning by hasseling every S15 or Skyline that drives past, that doesn't stop anything? I'm either driving to or from work or driving to or from my girlfriends, yes I was suspended for 3 months for speeding to work which i shouldn't have (not in a skyline), but thats not hooning and everybody knows somebody who has been suspended for some reason, atleast it wasn't for drink driving, hooning is nothing, how many people die in australia every year from hooning????????? you can count them on your hands, how many people die from drink driving????? id say dozens easy if not most of the yearly road toll. atleast somebody speeding has some chance of avoiding a collision, a drunk driver even doing under the speed limmit has no chance avoiding an incident if a situation arose...... AND NO I DONT SUPPORT SPEEDING

    • Back again. I returned to Japan in Jul/Aug to spend time with the car on my birthday and remind myself what all the sacrifice and compromise is for. It happened to line up with the monthly morning meet in Okutama, which I have been wanting to go to for a long time. It's a unique event at a unique spot with really rare, interesting, and quirky cars. It's where all the oldheads and OGs gather. The nighttime scene at DKF certainly has its place and should be experienced if you're into cars, but there's too much bad attention and negativity around it now. IMO the better time is Sunday morning at DKF or Okutama; it's more chill and relaxed. I'm glad I was finally able to go, but not sure it's worth the drive from all the way from Nagoya immediately the day before, unless I was already staying in Tokyo for the days right before the meet, because you have to wake up quite early to make it in time. Funnily enough though I didn't drive the car all that much this trip because it was just too damn hot. While there were zero issues and running temps were nominal and the A/C was strong, RBs already run crazy hot as it is. Sure, it took it all like a champ but something about driving these cars in the ridiculous heat/humidity bothers me and makes me feel like I'm asking too much of it. I'm just me being weird and treating the car like a living thing with feelings; I'm mechanically sympathetic to a fault. Instead I was mainly driving something else around - a KX4(silver) 2001 X-Trail GT, that I acquired in May. There's a few different flavors to choose from with Xs, but visually it's the Nissan version of the Honda CR-V. Mechanically it's a whole different story as this, being the top-trim GT, has an SR20VET mated to a four-speed auto and full-time AWD! It was a very affordable buy in exceptional condition inside and out, with very low mileage...only 48k kms. Most likely it was owned by an older person who kept it garaged and well-maintained, so I'm really happy with how it all worked out. It literally needs zero attention at the moment, albeit except for some minor visual touch-ups. I wanted something quirky, interesting, and practical and for sure it handily delivers on all three of those aspects. I was immediately able to utilize the cargo and passenger capacity to its full extent. It's a lot of fun to drive and is quite punchy through 1st and 2nd. It's very unassuming -in the twisty bits it's a lot more composed than one would think at a glance- and it'll be even better once I get better tires on it(yes, it's an SUV but still a little boat-y for my liking). So...now I have two golden-era Nissans in silver. One sports car and one that does everything else; the perfect two-car solution I think👍 The rest of the trip...I was able to turn my stressed brain off and enjoy it, although I didn't quite get to do as much as I thought. I did some interesting things, met some interesting people, and happened into some interesting situations however, that's all for another post though only if people really want to know. Project-wise, I went back to Mine's again to discuss more plans and am hoping to wrap that up real soon; keep watching this space if that interests you. Additionally, while working in the tormenting sweatbox that is the warehouse, I was able to organize most of the myriad of parts that my friend is storing for me along with the cars, and the 34 has a nice little spot carved out for it: And since it can get so stupid hot in there, that made it all the more easy -after I was standing there looking at the car and said 'f**k it'- to finally remove all the damn gauges that have mostly been an eyesore all this time. Huzzah. The heat basically makes the adhesive backing on the gauge mounts more pliable to work with, so it was far less stressful getting this done. I didn't fully clean it up or chase the wiring though; that will happen once I have the car in closer possession. Another major reason to remove all that stuff is to give people less reasons to get in my car and steal s**t while it's being exported/imported when/if the time comes, which leads us to my next point... ...and that is even though it's time in Japan is technically almost up since it's a November car and the X would be coming in March, I'm still not entirely sure where my life and career is headed; I don't really know what the future looks like and where I'm going to end up. I feel there's a great deal of uncertainty with me and as a result of that, it feels like I'm at a crossroads moreso now than any point in my life thus far and there are some choices I need to make. Yes, I've had some years to consider things and prepare myself, however too much has happened in that time to maintain confidence and everything feels so up in the air; tenuous one might say. Simply put, there's just too much nonsense going on right now from multiple vectors. Admittedly, I'm struggling to stay in the game and keep my eyes on the prize. So much so in fact, that very recently I came the closest I ever have before to calling it quits outright; selling everything and moving on and not looking back. The astute among you will pick up on key subtext within this paragraph. In the meantime I've still managed to slowly acquire some final bits for the car, but it feels nice knowing there's not much left to get and I'm almost across that finish line; I have almost everything I'll ever want for my interpretation and expression on what it is I think an R34 should be. 'til later.
    • Thanks for that, hadn’t used my brain enough to think about that. 
    • Also playing with fire if they start to flow more air down low than what the stock twins can. It's not even up top you need to worry, it can be at 3000rpm and part throttle and it's getting way more flow than it should.
    • Any G40/1000 or G40/1250 results out there?  
    • You still want a proper tune on the stock ECU though. Stock tune + stock ECU with GT-SS/-9s is probably playing with fire if you're running more than stock airflow/power.
