Anyone here know if theres such thing as a hoon database? My mate today got caught drag racing with some random, anyway the cops didnt 'see'

it they just heard it and they asked for licence etc and got their number plates and said "you guys are in the hoon database"

is it a scare or is there actually one?

There is a "Dob a Hoon Hotline" where you can phone up and report "Hooning".

Cops take your details down just to keep track of you, make sure you paid your fines, check if your license is not suspended.

Normal cop checks.

Good question, i would like to know too. A work mate drives a 180sx, and has a load exhaust. He gave it a bit too much stick in the car park and apparently someone phoned the cops, a few minutes later, the cops ring him up on the work phone abusing him.

also, is there a loophole into this? you can just get different number plates.. :| True? because ONLY that number plate is under their system.. and vicroads arent linked with the police (as the picture doesnt come up when they do a registration check (vicroads has the pictures however))

i got caught doing something in dandenong (no it want drifting!) cops said our plates would be on a "black list" and if we even got seen down in those parts again wed get impounded, duno how true this black list thing is though..i wouldnt wana test it though... hmmm...

I am on this "list" apparently, i was driving up to lilydale one night quite late and got pulled over. Got asked if ive been in trouble with the cops before i said no, she said ok wait here. She then came back and said remember what happened in october last year? I was like, no? She said you were spoken to in albert park yada yada, im on the suspicion that your'e here to hoon and i will radio the other cars in the area to keep an eye on you.

So yeah, im f**ked. One stupid thing and im finished.

yes DOB in a hoon is a internet based website that targets hoons and to dob them in.......like a forum

and they were featured in 'Acurrent Affairs' many years ago....

a mother who got sick and death of seeing hooning was the founder......

anyhow..... you never tell us what area you are in.....

and where did it take place?

because if its the dodgy south west in sydney area around... Whetheril Park, Cabramatta, Fairfield, Smithfield, St Johns Park, green valley, etc etc etc......

the council has actually set up a Hoons hotline which they have joined forces with the Fairfield City Police..... and you can dob in a hoon....(im guessing its just for that area not the whole of sydney)

this was on the news... and it is said that there is a GUARRANTEE that action will be taken for EVERY single call.......

i think this is a good idea..........to stop idiots....

but then again....how accurate is it? i mean.......if i hated someone i could jsut try and dob him in and set it up?

hmmmmmmmm

Pretty sure the "blacklist" is real, its a mark against your rego info when your looked up on a police computer.

A hoon database wouldn't surprise me...have never heard of it before but you don't exactly get to see what the police store on you too often.

I swear, that is a TRUE story, and yes, i did get spoken to in october last year. It pisses me off real bad because i don't know how long that will be on the record for, i don't even know if it will ever be cleared. All for doing one stupid thing. My driving record is actually pretty immaculate, just a few speeding tickets here and there thats about it. Doing one thing wrong and now i'm viewed as being some sort of hardened crim.

similar to what your talking about....this is a public online based one.

Seriously! how much of a nerd would you have to be to actually do this? :D Well his a example of what im guessing someones whos a member below would say!

"Hi im a member of ratetheplate.com.au and i love being a pretend police officer, im also a part-time tennis ball stamper which can get crazy at times! My other hobbies include peeling oranges, watching paint dry, watching grass grow and my favorite reading the dictionary!

Get a life people! :banana:

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
