hey guys, i just watched the news and they are talkin bout hooning and shit again, particularly about p-platers. this time, they are talkin about bringing in crushing-the-hooner's-cars laws if they were caught. more undercover cops will be around this time as well. on the news, they also show a done up commodore being crushed and evos and fc rx7s being confiscated, luckily no skylines on the video. as usual they showed the blue S15 doin doughnuts video again and surprisingly, a pulsar doin FWD burnouts as well.

k now i have no problem with people who do the wrong thing being punished but from what little i know this whole hoon law thing is a bit ambiguous for the total confiscation of someones car

and as for crushing what a waste of time hows about you auction it off and use the funds for better roads, education, helping out victims of road accidents etc

and while im on my soapbox lets stop bothering about afew burnouts and deal harsher with the serious problems like drink drivers and road ragers take their cars off them damn it

I think they said on the third offence (or after the third offence not sure which) they will either crush the car, auction it off or use it in undercover operations. I just reckon it's scare tactics, would get contested in court immediately and no doubt the cops would lose the case. It is stupid anyway as people who fall into that situation would be more likely to try and getaway from the cops and be even more reckless doing so knowing their car would get confiscated/crushed if they get caught.

Apparently they're also starting a new operation using "hoon" like vehicles with plain clothed police officers who will no doubt be entrapping people to street race putting the public at risk. It's a shame our police force wastes an enormous amount of resources on such a minor demographic when it could be done much more effectively with less resources and especially when it should really be going towards more important things like burglary... if you call the cops after your house has been robbed (or even if you catch the thief yourself) the cops will take their sweet arse time getting there (hours) but I bet if you made a phone call about hearing a "hoon" they'd be there within minutes.

Not to mention the hoon law is complete crap in the first place and is basically a free pass for the power trip cops to do as they please.

Nah, the fact that "hoons" take priorities over murderers is GREAT!! Anytime we have paint sniffing natives at work (I'm not racist) we just tell the cops there is also someone doing burnouts in the carpark. Then they take the 2 minute drive from the cop shop and move them along. /sarcasm

Ok, it takes 40 minutes, they need to get their priorities right, but thats for another thread.

Honestly, cops trying to race you is just f**ked up. Why waste time, money, and effort to encourage people to do something dangerous in the attempt to "save" lives? Try going after the dickhead I saw the yesterday fish tailing up Mirrabooka Avenue in a red Ford AU Falcon who ended up doing a full 180. Imo THAT is more dangerous then 2 cars (one driven by a cop) doing 140 in a 100 zone!

Also, if you get hoonlawed 3 times, you deserve to be shot! Sorry, but thats just stupid!

yeah i saw sorta the same story the other night but it was about how people are setting up illegal drag and burnout meets

on the outer parts of perth, nice one from the blue rb powered s13 but the reason for the news bit was coz someone who

remains annonymous handed over his info on the whole scene, must have had a bad day with his car buddies an decided

to help end hoons, dunno how many mates he's got left now

Fairly sure i had a cop trying to get me to race him once, old falcon (super old like XYish age), dude was spinning his finger as in like "smoke it up" or whatever and was spinning the back tyres waiting for the lights when i noticed a commodore behind me, i took off slowly when the other guy launched and when i turned off i noticed the car behind me was an undercover car surprised me the undercover didnt chase the other guy and i didnt think much of it.

Just saw yet another "hoon law" article. Almost every clip was shot at Barbagallo either at the drifts or at Powercruise, and interviews of not-so-intelligent people saying how they don't think burnouts are illegal.

They were also talking about the poor 16yo girl who died in the 180SX crash. What about the 20+ people died on the road over the Christmas season? As far as I know, only 2 people have died in a performance car in the last 6 months or so, one was doing the speed limit, yet was still made out to be the bad guy.

Exactly, because of australias aging population cracking down on "hoons" is a great win with the public. They dont even really care about what the hoon legislation does as they dont really understand it that much and most of them drive 60 in an 80 "because thats safer". The fact is Politicians only care because it gets them votes, and hence gets them paid.

We'll be old one day. I wonder if we will still disapprove?

Man I swear this hoon crap pops on a monthly basis.

It pops up for a while & disappears, & repeat...

Also does anyone have the link to that "new" hoon video on the news that you guys are talking about?

I stopped watching AU TV the minute I found out how to BT.

The old folks who can't drive over 60km/h in their 3 cylinder Charades who complain when us young hoons "flog" it off the lights in our stupidly-loud "hoon cars". I shift at 3000rpm and still leave the 1.5L shit boxes behind. And yet... I'm the bad guy?

Of course you are the bad guy! His old therefore he can't be the bad guy... nah jokes ;)

But thats how these people think anyway.

I remember a while back while I was waiting at Nandos I was flicking through the pile of newspaper there & found this article where it talks about how the cops found a holden ute doing close to 100km/h in a 40 zone so they stopped the ute & did the hoon law on him & took his car away.

The problem is the driver is a 70yr old flamin mongrel, who started complaining to the cops, & he even made the remark that he is a good driver & that the hoon laws shouldn't target people like him (coz his old), it should target younger drivers & their cars.

Some f***** nerve his got to speak like that, he even mentioned that his going to court regarding this matter & getting his car back.

If you ask me, if they do bring in the crushing a hoon's car law here, the cops should crush his car asap & ban him from driving for life.

His attitude totally pisses me off :D

End rant.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
