thats the only part that concerns me.

I doubt car crushing will be dished out like an on-the-spot fine. There would have to be a scrutineering process to go thru ... IF it ever happens.

Does that mean each Police Cruiser will be fitted with a car crusher?

Exactly. :)

its very concerning that any officer has the right to get your pride and joy crushed

i highly doubt that this will pass but for those being stupid there should be something apart from crushing their car.....like suspension of license for 2 years or greater something like that as the driver is the one that needs to learn the lesson not the car lol......a car doesnt drive by itself its the tool behind it.....and if this law passes and you get a little bit of wheel spin of the line....can be classified as a hoon and car crushed....dont think we want that happening do we

"These repeat offenders are hell bent on driving dangerously and engaging in anti-social behavior," Mr Rann said.

how is it anti social?

and if it goes ahead, they better have some strict guidelines for the crushing of the cars. I mean it would be too easy for any police officer to go well thats an import and deserves to be crushed, even tho you havent done anything wrong?

if that makes sense

trouble with license suspension is alot of tools ignore it and get away with it. id like to see tuffer penalties for the repeat offenders, ive talked to knobs who just kept driving as normal without a license and there extra suspensions hardly seem to fit the crime.

the talk of car crushing is leaving me picturing the ending of gone in 60seconds :) "unicorn"

i guess that will make these cars rarer and therefore more valuable, as apposed to the defect the crap outa em till they sell it cheap so someone that caresless about it can drive it.

comment submitted. *waits for it to be edited to support the crushing of cars and then posted*

this state shits me to tears. seriously. rann, the big thinker has attempted to introduce or has introduced such awesome and helpful laws as;

ZERO tolerance on speeding. (ie, 1km/h and you get a fine, it was kicked out first time round, notice the 'creeper' ad's on these days? yeah? hes trying again)

anti association. (sure, it works on criminals in theory, but what about when he gets bored? or someone takes his ear and suggests another group to target? a bad idea if there ever was one.)

car crushing. (waste of time, waste of money, waste of resources, i could go on. and the system their basing it on, well, in the states they do crush cars, yes, but rarely if theyre privately owned unless youve really f**ked up, they tend to only crush rebirthed cars)

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
