Saw this in the paper, as per my normal retaliation I replied via letter to the editor. I wonder if they are getting sick of my replies to their stories yet.

AntiHoon.jpg

Hoon Watch Launched.

Your facts in regards to the story on the anti hooning forms that’s Elmes and Simpson will be distributing are not totally correct. The system in theory has it merits and as a car enthusiast and car club member I do agree the local hoons needs to be pulled into line, as it’s a case of one bad their all bad in the public eye unfortunately.

The system has not worked and has been abused in other areas. The forms have been filled out in an act of a personal vendetta against certain car owners and even filled out from other “hoons” who have had a falling out with someone else as a method of pay back. There are countless reports of this form being used as a practical joke on friends.

Unfortunately there have also been situations, which are in the process of now going to court due to the revenge issue.

You may also note, the Police cannot issue an infringement on the hear say of these forms, it’s only another information source which has and will continue to fuel any anti social behavior which will result in fights.

Yeah "Hoon" watch wont last long...

Like the lady who was pointing her hair dryer at people in a school zone down the gold coast last year to try and get people to slow down...

Well she copped a brick and the problem was solved... (I dont not condone brick throwing, just saying is all)

Bad things come to do good people...

I mean what sort of sence of satisfaction are they planning to acheive...

Their simply making them selves a target to a generation that will react stupidly and they will be left with the trauma of the situation...

I got a simple solution, wrap yourself in cotton wool so your sorted and drink some red wine chill out and just worry about yourselves...

damn do gooders

(makes me wish that white rum ad was real like "But my fish is sick")

That’s it. I think for the most part Mr. and Mrs. Public can use common sense and know the difference from a true pain in the hoon ass, to someone driving a stereotyped car to work.

The problem will be with the typical neighbor hood pain in the ass. The person who takes it upon them selves to be the street sheriff, we all know the types, the middle aged complainer about bins being left out too long, no understanding why you’ve let a car run down for 25seconded after pulling into your driveway, the person we’ve all had an argument with.

They will abuse this system the most. I don’t even need to get into the personal vendetta problems with this and some of the “car gang” way of thinking with revenge paybacks.

Another Hoon Story – The Forms

i thought this meant the cops would be watchign the fourms more and reading members write-ups etc

which would be bad, there was a thread the other day on NS "who has the dirtiest street driven car" go figure

ill agree with you on this one, i have dealt with these people, and i just recently bought a more obvious car now. If the caretaker ( senior aged guy who we pay money to take the bins out) is complaing about people parking more then 1 car in the carpark of our townhouse complex i cant wait to see what my turbo timed engine is going to go down like..(although theres much bigger wankers with even bigger ford and holden crap 8's that are louder.. so i might be oK)

I can already see it at the next body corp meeting... wanks... although i could be just pigeon holeing him..like they like to do to us.

they already do this.. for some time.. didnt u know?

Quick lets get together at 123 Doughnut St for a street race.

I'll bring lots of Naws!

Seriously the appeal to idiots should be glaringly obvious, I mean Today Tonight and it's clone do well enough. Kids these days.............. :blink:

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
