wow an interesting read there guys.

Has anyone noted that the original response and tv program related to the easily available "hoon" activity easily available through such meduims, why they chose to include them in the footage, but did TT had any predispositions to achieving social justice on any level, why did they collate the "best of the worst" to play on air within the main raitings bracket?

So while they are bad mouthing hoons and the influence this footage CANor MAY have on they youth of australia, they display it at a time when most people of all generations and age brackets are watching and expose it to a wider audience.

It is unfortunate that it is easier to single out a minority which for a long time has a stigma attached which is a menace to society and will absolutely in no doubt kill your children and if not, force them to take drugs, perform underage sex and spawn a generation of doll bludgers that the average whire double income family with 2 children need to support through their taxes. i'm supprised they have not jumped to the conclusion that the import cars also bring in illegal immigrants hiden in the boot carrying sars and child prostitutes.

It is also unfortunate to acknowledge while 5% of the population is sore about labeling enthusiasts and hoons in the same bracket a further 95% of the population agree with the findings or are atleast missinformed enough to believe the unjust and false media properganda they produce.

I'm all in support of those who want to fight but honestly, really is it going to get you anywhere?

maybe... as they do the toy run with bikies 2 weeks after a bikie underbelly society "terrorist" special...

still rather than writing intellegent emails that expose the incompetencies of the channel 7 journalism facalty, their pathetic attemps to reply will fall of deaf ears and wouldn't suprise me if this guygets his jollies off of emails from the minorities he aims to discriminate.

i'd consider it a better option to pin this 'Producer guy" and shit down his throat...

I like to think that there's more than 5% of Australia who watch TT and ACA for comedy purposes only. That said the Herald Sun is one of the best selling papers in the country :)

its true, although i got quite worked up over some stories....now i wont even watch it anymore cos i think we definitely need less stress in our lives.

Especially the hoon stories...speed cameras.....dodgy police etc

I watch it every now and again for a laugh, I only get riled up when people repeat the stuff from those shows like it's fact or try and defend their 'ambush the bastard' journalistic techniques (which the Chaser famously imitated much to Ch 7's dislike).

This is the kind of complete and utter garbage Today Tonight is renowned for, thankfully this kind of advice is legislated against and they copped it, whereas rubbish opinion segments that appeal to people's very low level nature, are not:

I have a mate that is the camera man for sunrise. he may be able to help us out.

I was thinking this the whole time i was reading through the thread, send it all to Koshy to put up on the roswall...... (yes i am a sad sunrise addict hahahaha)

I think he would have something to say i am going to try and cut and paste this thread into an email and send it away, better yet if GT-Rr32 could get his friend to put the hard word on about this too?

    • You're already well into "gearbox is a consumable" territory there. A billet plate will either make it (effectively) 1% stronbger or make it last one more pass. At some point you'll probably tear 3rd gear into small chunks and regret all the life decisions that came before it.
    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
