Its not just a NSW think unfortunately...

Some of you may remember the same thing was tried on me here in QLD a few months back... They nudged the side of my car, I stopped, realised what was going on then took of... They followed me at high speed for another 5 minutes until I got away...

Everyone just be carefull and if you can, dont get out of your car and drive off...

Anyone know what ethnic minority these thieves were?

Stuff like this makes me sick but do we really need ignorant bull$hit like this thrown around? Are you really that much of a racist?

How is it racist? You don't even know my ethnicity, nor which "race" I was commenting on. For the record, I wasn't commenting on any specific race (in fact the question left the answer open to "Australian", maybe I should have left the word "minority" out) and I am not of white Australian decent myself.

I will admit that I think a gang of white Australians would be the least likely type of people to carry out such an act. If the gang was Aussie I will be surprised, but I'm not saying it would be impossible.

How is it racist? You assumed that this gang of crooks were from an ethnic minority. That's racist in anyone's book mate. I accept however, that you may have chosen the wrong way to express yourself and the question you REALLY intended to ask.

I don't HAVE to know your nationality. Why should I care?!? I didnt imply that you singled a particular race in general. Do you beleive that's the ONLY way to be racist? Come on.

More to the point, think of this. What does it MATTER what nationality the crooks are?

A bit more thought next time hey?

This is scaring me to death. All the shit I hear about car jacking lately. I am considering for going full comp insurance in favor of a tracking system.

but I agree with XEQTOR there, If I happen to get blocked in or chased, they better be crazy to follow me or have a gun, anything else and they will be tasting club lock right in the GOD DAMN TEETH!

Most car jackers do have guns. I was suprised to hear that this bunch didn't (maybe they are just clueless). I know personally of 1 person that has been carjacked with a pistol (and his car joyridden briefly and written off) and know third hand of 1 or 2 others.

I would cry if it happens to me, now I can see reasons for why people want gun licenses. the government are cracking down on guns but there still seem to be too many out there, or weapons of any sort. like when that kid walked into the school yard and shot his ex girlfriend with a crossbow.

when things like this happens, you need to stop and think what makes us any different from animals?

A guy I know owns a phat looking 01WRX. really nice car. goes reasonably well and looks hot. he also lives in bankstown, so I was told the other day the cops pulled him over and when they were checked over the car discovered a metal batton he has made for himself. when the police questioned him on it he explained what it was for and where he lived with the type of car he drove, they let him off.

      I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.

      We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.

      Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)

      New Skyline will be RWD and manual

      Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
