tut tut...anyway I have had clients who have been charged with such dangerous offences for throwing bottles out the window general road rage which turn into assaults. Bottom line is, get as much detail you can about the person, car, incident and report it.

Sure, the police might not do anything but in my experience they sometimes do and it's better than nothing. Otherwise you'll need to see me for your road rage :D

Here's a good one, a mate of mine was on the receiving end of some road rage through the tunnel. They both got off at East Pde and when they pulled up at the lights my mate got out of his car and, without saying a word, reached in the guys windows, ripped the keys out of the ignition and pegged them down onto the train tracks, got back in his car and drove off. Never heard anything about it :D

We've got a fair few twats on the road down here in Victoria too. I usually get a pack of idiots in a commo yelling shit, or tailgating but haven't got anything thrown at me.

Saw someone throw a cheeseburger at another car at traffic lights once though - the windscreen wipers didn't help much at all.

Thats hilarious but pretty bold and cocky and a little stupid.

i was on my way back home from toodyay and there was a bmw and then 2 road trains in front of me and we were going about 10km under so when there is the over taking lane i go in to it to over take and the bmw in front goes to do the same thing and that is cool and then just as i pass the last road train the bmw slams on the brakes for know no reason and i had to slams on the brakes coz im not cutting in front of the road train and then be4 i know it the bmw is back in front of the road train and the over taking lane just ended and the is another big truck coming the other way and lucky for me one of the road trains saw the hole thing happening and let me in but it was real tight.

hay come on ppl back of the young ppl im 18 and know heaps of other "young" ppl that dont do stupid things. granted that some of u have had problems with young ppl we are not all d**k heads (referring to first page)

"peterw > Saw someone throw a cheeseburger at another car at traffic lights once though - the windscreen wipers didn't help much at all." lol that reminds me about what happened to a guy i went to school with somebody shat on his windscreen when he was at a party. lol the wipers didn't work very good also

That is farrked..wat kinda party was that?

Firstly, a guy my friend works with (already beginning with a most reliable and close source of knowledge, yes) sold his S13 to buy an old-school BMW. Pulled up at some lights, and the guys in a massive truck pulled up and asked if he'd got a light. He said he hadn't, because (as far as I know) his car doesn't actually have that capability. So, sitting in a convertible's a pretty vulnerable place to be, and this truck full of builder-types start abusing him and chasing him; by the time he'd gotten away he'd run 6-7 red lights and hit 160ks.

I've never really had any trouble like this to be honest, but what I can say is this; dickhead drivers annoy me to NO end, and when I see people doing this, quite often I just drop it behind them, chuck on the high beams, and chill out. I genuinely like being albe to see stuff, so I'm not fussed, and practically NOBODY has headlights as bright as me is seems.

That said, the constant calls for burnouts I get are insatiable, and just downright annoying. JUST BECAUSE YOU RIDE A PUSHBIKE IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT I HAVE TO MAKE UP FOR IT BY DOING THE SKIDS YOU'RE INCAPABLE OF FOR YOU!

You can only get away with a baseball bat if it's in the boot AND you have other baseball equipment to back it up.

I have a trusty 4 D-cell maglite :P

Well one night I did!

Was coming back from my mates place one night (was on my P's) in my Lexus (not even a hoon/import car!) and this Commodore thinks he was all that. Kept speeding up, tailgating me all that sh*t. Had my mate in the passenger seat with me. I just want them to leave so I go the speed limit, obey the road rules and decide to go into a residential area (I figure whos stupid enough to keep doing that shit around houses). They still follow and as I go to turn right the try and overtake me/hit my car/swerve me. So I say to my mate thats it! (After I gave him my phone and told him to call the police, yeah they were being really useful, he was on the phone for minutes.

Well the day before I had played baseball and remembered my bag was still in the boot. So I pulled over and they slowed down. I got out and then went to my open boot. They got the f*ck out of there before they even saw what I got out!

I guess some people can't live with the fact that other peoples stuff is cooler/nicer then theirs.

What the f**k dude, control yourself, pull your head in & don't mention that shit on here again.

He's right guys,lets pull our heads in. We need to stop saying stuff like that on this forum.. next thing you know, a current affair will have some incident involving a skyline driver and weapons linked back to this thread and further drumming in the "dangerous hoon" image middle aged Australia has of import drivers.

See, even if something happens and its not your fault, the media will try to turn it agaisnt you because they may see you as a hoon and thats coz of the cars we drive. so, as many guys have said here, if somthing happens to you, try to get as many details as possible and report it, dont get out of your car if ur harrassed and leave the scene fast

A couple of months ago, before i got my Skyline, was in my Vectra, i was driving home from my gf's at about 10:30-11pm, something like that. Anyway im driving down this street, and i see a bunch of people standing by the side of the road infront of a house, so i just thought "ok, someones having a party". So i slowed down a bit, and as i get closer, a couple of people start crossing the road, so i slowed down more. Then this one guy starts walking towards me, looking like he is about to try and tackle the car. He was clearly smashed, and looked like he was about to pass out right infront of me, so i moved onto the other side of the road, and went past him. As i start to speed up again, i hear yelling and then two glass bottles hit my boot. I was so tempted to stop, i was so angry, but i thought i better not because it was a whole party vs me, i wasnt liking my odds. When i got home i checked, and i have two big dents in my boot from that f**ker.

What the hell makes people throw things at cars? It like they are trying to show how tough they are. Im more than happy for you to stand in front of my car and discover which one weighs more, you or the car; but im telling you now, its not an argument youre likely to win

Cant believe none of you used the 'Grand Torino' approach:

If they dont speed off

1 Slow down

2 Wind down your window while your next to there car driving or at the traffic lights (my favourite)

3 Extend your hand out while you glare at them in the eye with a mad dog look

4 Give em the old Handgun action at each there heads.

5 then if Im in a really pissed of mood i tailgate them as if im following them home :O

Normally scares the shit out of them

But tailgater get is worst neutral dump floor it, ive never see a car spit so much shit out the exhaust in my life, i guess thats why im get 260 to a tank.....

haha there cars covered in black shit haha

lol i did that at a set of lights, AND IT WORKS!! the guy stayed about 50 meters away after that

I work in security at a shopping center and if ever we someone hoon they get a record on police file when we report it.

Can you describe what you would call "hooning"? what about your colleagues?

Just trying to gauge how subjective it all is :(

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
