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

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
