I found the police officers opinion on car crushing the most interesting.

We really need a drag strip here in SA with a reasonable entry charge so those that do street race realise how crappy it is when you can't really give it all she has without fear of being busted or some one pulling out in front.

I have seen this report before, one of the better "hoon" stories ACA has done.

For ones they are looking at the other end of the spectrum.

Also who the f*ck was that b*tch on the radio talking about crushing the "hotted up do-b do-b mobile" She should get her car crushed for one.

good to hear the other side for a change.

but 10 f6's at 70k each and their only getting 1-2 cars a month? is it me or does othes think that money could be spent else where? somewhere where it's needed maybe?

cops need to make other people know that their there, not hide to try and blend in to catch people in the act. stop the act before it happens!

i could go on and on but its not like it really matters. nice find either way.

ive been defected out the front of mallala once along with 60 or so other cars that day. all i was going to do was watch some decent drifting.

i understand that if your car is illegaly modded then cop it sweet but noone knows what illegal or not anymore. people are being f**ked over for the sake of it and being sent to regency because of the car they drive.

im waiting for the day that we get pulled over towing the drift car on the back so they can defect it :down:

People do speed to and from Mallala so why defect stations, this only prevents people from attending such events and keeps it ON the street.

Spend the $$ on increasing the number of speed camera's or laser guns.

I too have seen the defect stations but then carried on to see a lack of speed laser/camera's with some overtaking at crazy speeds.

Modifying will never be stopped so why not try to stop the behaviour on the street and encourage 'hoons' to take it to the track.

yeah thats the key......needing a drag strip is no brainer, it goes without saying but just you wait and see, if and when we finally get one, 17 year olds will have to sell their mum's on the street to be able to afford entry just so the strip can be paid off pronto......some of these kids with turbo cars can barely afford the petty to drive out there let alone a ridiculous entry fee......they'll continue to abuse Adelaide streets and only the true cashed up petrol-heads will pay the entry fee.........I'm generalizing of course but keeping it real nonetheless.

Good find btw Joel.

i vote SLED contacts aca adelaide and organises an interview, pledge exactly what he just said above,

and make sure they learn the difference between an enthusiast and a hoon ffs.

pfft why?

SLED drives a burnside bus now!

ror

-D

that's a low blow Ben............it's kinda like my GTR.....twin snails, 4WD, 3" zorst, Bilstein suspension, 6 speed, slammed....to the carport ceiling. :)

Yeah but it still gets no respect from me mate :)

You want me to respect an off road vehicle? Buy a unimog you softcock!

:blink:

I ran this idea past some people months ago, but there was no interest in it.

An interesting find tho.

    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
