Yeah brad did the ambo sirens thing to me a while ago.. Laughed my ass off for ages.. hahaha

Ash you did the right thing.. Good on you! Some people just dont use their heads when they are driving, it was either stolen or the guy has seen Gone in 60 seconds a few to many times.

Good work!

Drift panda, thats a pretty big generalisation.

If you met me, i KNOW you wouldnt think im a wanker or up myself (ok now it sounds like i am, but im the most down to earth, relaxed person around)

I drive a rex (a black one!!), so.... i know wankers in every type of car. Excels, pajeros, colts, lasers, commys, skylines.......

Its a pretty ignorant statement.... Sorry but you get sick of it after a while. Its the same as saying every P plater had their cars bought for them by daddy.

Hey ash....good to see you're ok!! Think what makes this so scarey is the fact they so obviously followed you around the block....and then waited for you when you lag behind?! Most people would give up and keep going at this point... especially with you being so unresponsive!!

Just tools making asses of themselves, and ruining your night in the process.

I was driving along Richmond Road late one night when a came up behind a white VL chock full of drunks driving slowly. As there was two western lanes i cruised on up alongside them going about 20km/h quicker.

Just as i was about side by side i saw a bottle fly over the roof of their car and just miss mine.

Naturally i slowed down, by this stage was doing about 30km/hr in a 70km/hr zone. They too slowed down, and i just knew they had plenty of empties ready to throw at me. Slowed enough to get it into 1st and then pegged it past them. Thankgod they missed with the empties.

Persistant bastards followed me, i would get about 100m ahead then slow down... but they kept on coming right up my ass. As i was getting close to my place i decided to get the hell out of there and took off down Richmond Rd on the speed limiter.

No mobile phone meant i couldnt call Police, and me being no Columbo didnt even get the lic late as i was too busy worrying about the whole situation.

Does this remind you of a certain cruise involving multiple commodores with blue and white racing chequer'd stripes down each side of their doors?

Thank God for slo200 at the petrol station.

can i ask u a simple question??

were these people of middle eastern origin?

and if they were? it doesn't matter what origin they are from, the point is they are idiots for doing what they did.

glad everything turned out ok for ya ash, all the best in the future.

Spot on Staunch,

"and if they were? it doesn't matter what origin they are from, the point is they are idiots for doing what they did. "

Not wanting to start any sort of racial debate, it just shows how ill informed and narrow minded some people are.

Conan why didn't you ask Roy the same question,

"were these people of middle eastern appearance"

Hmmm, i wonder why?????

The fact that the wankers were so persistent would have frieghtened any one of us on thia forum. But hey their's not all that much that can be done about it.

Atleast nothing came of it.

Ash: went up to my old work at Optus World North Sydney today and found they were ram raided Saturday night by a bunch of guys in a WRX - shop window smashed in front of several witnesses and the entire safe ripped out in 60 seconds. Makes you wonder if its the same wrx thats been involved in several incidents around the traps...

/edited: for the benefit of Bassit and Docile :D

"This group of individuals who are committing crimes around the Sydney area in their WRX are making a name for themselves - there have been several reports of ram raids, the attempted car jacking and other criminal acts over the last few weeks"

BLITZ. you are an idiot.

So many people on these forums (ALL forums) make stupid generalizations like that.

LS1's use oil, Every p plater with a nice guy, got it as a present. WRX are wankers. At first its a bit of fun, but its time to cut the crap.

It pays to respect all cars, or no one will show YOU respect

Docile and Bassit: I was referring to the "WRX boys" as in these particular individuals that have been commiting crimes in and around Sydney. I am not the sort of person who posts dumbass generalisations like some people.

As has been said, plenty of my friends drives WRX's so I certainly do not class anyone as an idiot simply for driving a particular car.

blitz, u think they ram raid in thier own wrx's? :D

all ram raids, they use stolen cars, it just happens they use wrx's coz they have great traction/acceleration.

maybe these guys would steal a gtst to ram raid.... but they know they won't b able to outrun a holden ss with one :shake: (j/k)

i dont class any particular driver as an idiot, but you blitz can be classed as one :)

Bassit can you be any more of a dumbass? Learn to read and comprehend at the same time. How the hell is wether they use their own WRX's relevant? its not even a point of discussion for gods sake.

I made a general statement that the individuals who are currently using a WRX to commit crimes are becoming well known over the past week and still dont appear to have been caught.

Thankyou for you excellent theory about ram raiders using stolen cars - you must have excelled at school.

You are beyond stupid - so before you try and challenge me again how about having a good think before you randomly type compulsive bullshit.

they use stolen cars? BRILLIANT!!

Maybe we have some new super-intelligent criminals in our midst!!

How about you use that wonderful brain of yours to work out that he was referring to the criminals who are using stolen WRX's as the "WRX boys"? He wasn't just slandering WRX drivers in general.

it's getting hot up here! chill people, wrx gang is laughing when they read this... they are loving them selfs as they hear so much things mentioned about them. The reason they get wrx is because they are 4WD and has FOUR doors, easy to carry 4 people for action. they need the power too to out run the cops. I wonder why they don't take the Ford XR6 Turbo ??? i have no clue! Leave Imports ALONE! they are hard enough to find... Ash mate, sorry to hear... next time should duck for cop station straight away or simply, pull into any petro station that has many exits.

If you guys want to see IDIOTS on the road come and do a ride along with me for a shift. Every nationality has a shallow ended gene pool, trust me!!!!!!!!

ASH: I couldnt resist the temptation when I seen you facing the wrong way, just had to give ya a bleep! I was impressed you were still standing though! Lots of others have fallen over! LMAO

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
