***en awsome cruise we had a mad time goin home on freeway was a mad time 190 in the emergency lane and doging truks tryin 2 run us off road lol

Seriously, these are the clowns that should not be on the road, sure have some fun sometimes. but the line is drawn between fun and stupidity and i dont even have to mention what side these guys are on :), but doing stuff like that is beyond the joke and thats the reason why the cops are so hard on us guys, cause we are sadly in their eyes in the same category.

Please dont ever let me catch any of you guys doing any shit like that, its a discgrace really to calling yourself a car enthusiast.

Sorry bout the rant but i think you know where im coming from.

I seriously hate the whole 'car enthusiasts' tag and the way it is ALWAYS negativly used, by the media and the stupid idiots that cause this heat to be put down on people like us.

The name itself suggest a sense of respect for the machinery that we drive, plus with that respect comes a certain degree of following the road rules, (hey, we all cant be perfect).

But what really gets me is that these....(and I'm about to use a clique here) 'hoons' try to pass themselves off as enthusiasts.....

Really they are bored, stupid, immature little s***s who have no respect for the car that they drive, other people on the road and just general public order.

They all seem to have an inferiority complex about the 'true' car enthusiast....

IF that event in Terrigal was really about car enthusiasts then it would have turned into a mini car show, becuase most people there would have attended to enjoy a nice trip up to a senic place and talk to a few people about a common interest and possibly make a few new friends in the process.....

Well sorry to ramble on, but I felt like I needed to get that off my chest.....

Thank you all for listening....

funnily enough after the cruise of friday night up to the same place, the only time we had trouble with the cops was at maccas!!!!! it's my guess that if we never went to maccas that we would not have had any issues!!

pretty funny overall!!!!

guess we wont be going up there anytime soon without any issues, hope this isnt the case!!!

Are these guys serious or just FCKED in the head!

I just read a few pages and they are the biggest bunch of tossers I have ever read posts from. talking about killin cops an stuff. doin 190km/h on the f3? dickheads. I thought it was just the Magazine that was shithouse but now I see the forum isn't any better. too many knobs.

We all have problems with the police, but if you be reasonable and keep calm, just chat with them most of them will be alright. they should try organising with them like last time I went on a cruise to bathurst in a big group, the organiser rang the local cops there and told them we were coming and where to. The supercruises never seem to have any problems I hear. there were heaps of cars there last year.

I think these guys need to step back, and take a look at what it means to be a car enthusiest. maybe re-evaluate how they act on cruises.

They're not enthusiasts, just hoons who just wanna drive fast and don't care about anything.

The comment about dodging rocks and trucks in the emergency lane @ 200k/hr left me lost for words

I was out there (resident of the Coast an all) for some lunch and saw the biggest convoy of circus clowns roll through...

It was a case of:

Rice, rice, rice, oooh that's kinda cool, rice, rice, damn that's low, rice, rice, geez that's loud, rice, etc etc...

(It's interesting they describe the place as a "quiet resort" pffft. Hardly. More like a run-down Coogee.

I tried go through the Haven to check some of the rides out but there were so many arse-monkeys parking all over the road, wandering all over the road, not to mention all those who stopped to talk to their mates thereby blocking the road.

I think the worst aspect of this is the total lack of respect they've shown for the destination, the authorities and the (generally) good name of car enthusiasts and tuners.

Be they hot rodders (unfairly named in newspaper), street machiners (when you say hot rod, mostnon-car people think of V8s) and import/high-tech drivers we've all been impuned by this behaviour.

I hope the police show a similar lack of respect the next time someone like them organises a cruise.

Sorry, rant over...

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
