At the risk of sounding prejudice against certain cars...

whats with all of the bad stories about cars...being about commodores and falcons?

I read the news everyday at work and this is one of the latest articles:

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story...5-12377,00.html

People keep telling me i have a hoon car, but i havent really read of any skylines being crashed except for that red one...which i bet was stolen...

BUT working in a country town, everyone here loves commodores or falcons and gangs up on me because im into imports!!!

Anyone know any other stories or anything?

Or even, can show me stories in the news involving skylines or WRX's? :thumbsup:

5 minutes, hai 5!

Most commodores rear vision is impaired by a big f**k off skin/unit/show some/thor sticker, so they don't bother looking behind them any more because they can't really see. That's reflected to the rest of their driving habits, true story.

And I was going to buy a VE SSV Ute next :P

Do they make them for men yet??

It ain't only falcodores being tools. Had a 200sx infront of me on the freeway last week decide that it would be a good idea to spin his wheels, in the rain, amongst traffic, doing over the speedlimit and nearly lose it into the side of another car :)

ANOTHER ONE:

Article from: Australian Associated Press

A P-PLATER was caught driving at 180km/h before crashing his car on the NSW north coast, police said.

Highway Patrol officers were doing speed checks on the Pacific Highway at Bonville just after 4pm (AEST) yesterday when they detected a Holden Commodore allegedly travelling at 180km/h, twice the legal speed limit for P-platers.

They followed the car, which went out of control on a sweeping bend at the top of the Lyons Road overpass off-ramp and crashed into a safety railing, police said.

Police arrested the driver, an 18-year-old from Fernmount who was uninjured in the crash.

He was taken to Coffs Harbour Police station where his P1 licence was suspended and he was charged with driving at a dangerous speed, negligent driving and exceeding the speed limit by more than 45km/h.

He is due to appear in Coffs Harbour Local Court on July 13.

I still havent seen any reports in some the same context about skylines, WRX's etc lol

"wheel-spinning continued for more than five minutes"

falcons can do 5minute burnouts now? :)

You haven't abused an EF obviously.

Yes, falcons have a rev limiter. (Bwaaaaaaaba---baaa-bbaaa---baaaaa *drop to 1* bwaaaaaaaaaaaaabababababababaa) and so on.

Can't even believe that car sold...

      Haha no I'll do that one tomorrow. I've been ignoring it. It's the 5.0 one I'm taking about. (There is a little X to hide the 4.7 one if you want)

      So I'm going to have to keep ignoring the 4.7 update, or whatever version it is? Poop. I was hoping you'd put me out of my misery.

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
