Divert cops from the TMU units to start dealing with the real crime. That will solve the problem period.

And to all u wog/lebo bashes (talking to u especially Nismoid), have u thought that ur attitude towards ethnic minority groups might be part of the problem.

I'm sorry but Australia is a very racist country as has been highlighted recently by the Indian bashings and the comments by ex Telstra CEO Sol Trujio. When u segregate a portion of society then really what do u expect? And this is not a new phenomenon either. Look at the LA riots, the riots in Paris 5 years back and the Cronulla riots. I just hope that Melbourne never reaches that stage but the situation is not hopeful when you look at the attitude of alot of "anglo australians"

I was simply stating fact. You look @ all the news reports, transcripts and so on... You can't argue that which is clearly in front of you I'm afraid.

Some of my closest mates that i grew up with are all lebanese/italian/maltese/greek/The land of goat sphincter rings, i was the minority group growing up in my area actually. Out of 200 kids in my school year level - about 15 were 'anglo aussie' as you put it, the rest were from groups as i just stated :thumbsup:

I see though you missed the key point where i said - Its these people from these communities that are saying its 'their own' that are causing a lot of the issues, making fights out of nothing, bashing people almost for fun and so on.

So if you somehow transpose what i said into racism and 'leb bashing' - that backs up what the people from these very communities are saying about people getting their backs up for stupid reasons and 'making' things out of nothing.

I can confirm this as i work there.

Mind you, any wog can get in on wog night, and usually no trouble.

Aussie night, its all regulars that the promoter knows or has met previously, and still there is trouble.

don't get me wrong, you'll get wogs that are dickheads, that you will get aussies that are dickheads too, no point in singling out one natio.

That may be a skewed comparison though... think about it. Most of the street violence... is it ethnic vs ethnic or ethnic vs "aussie"?

There are dickheads in every community. Its the lack of screening that allows people into australia. I've seen the permanent residency process, its easy.

The business visa way is very easy.

And marrying an australian, then the whole family gets PR, its like singapore, a lot of trash comes in.

are you serious? it took my family 5 years to get PR. the shit we had the go through to prove that living in our country of origin was dangerous...it is NOT easy

Non-aussie citizens who are convicted of a crime should be automatically deported back home, regardless of their refugee status. You come to Australia, you treat us with respect or you go home.

Is that for refugees?

Singaporeans just need to marry an australian or a permanent resident, and tadahh, just need the TB test and be certified free of criminal conviction. Its troublesome, but it can be done in a month.

when everyone was at raves til the sun came up eating pills and hugging there was hardly any violence! lol

making everyone stand on the street to smoke was a bad idea too... many club/bar precincts look like street festivals these days

also parents have gotten soft... I was too afraid of my old man to really get up to serious trouble

same as. i know my old man would have broken my leg if i did some serious shit. as a matter of fact, i once got slapped in the public for touching his money in the public. got told off that young kids should never touch adult's money, still don't even up till today

Every group has there heroes.

Only reason why you don't hear much about Australians in the city is because they don't have the numbers to back up there mouth, In outter suburbs like Berwick, Pake, Beacy where the Australian contingent is high there is alot of fights mostly due to Football which was stated earlier if Berwick player gets bumped hard by a Beacy player vice verse and because there is hardly any clubs in the area just Blitz they all meet there and rumble.

I don't believe the drugs are the problem, Alcohol is.

Funny story

I said to two Police officers tonight that "you should police real crime, and not be pulling over cars to raise revenue".

The result?

I was assaulted.

One officer (snr constable) grabbed me by the throat and pushed me about 20 meters down the road to a enclosed area (near the lawyers chamber, queen st). The other officer just stood by and watched. He was only around 5"6' so probably suffering a large case of little man's syndrome.

I was strangled for around 10-15 seconds whilst being forced to the darkened/enclosed area, it wasn't a heavy strangle so as to cut off circulation - but i'll probably carry a bruise or two in a couple of days none the less.

Threats like "we will stick you in the lockup for 3-4hrs", were thrown at me - i mean ffs - what the fk for - a few words? lol... :P

And that "you'll think twice now before mouthing off to the Police" - haha - as if. I'll do it again next week if the chance presents.

Gotta love the fact that as a single lone anglo male i was targeted - yet groups of 4+ people are not targeted and then go and bash people!

Also the fact they were pulling over a car that had nothing more than a set of shiny wheels... i mean fks sake - do some REAL WORK.

Of course, i wont be lodging a complaint or anything... Regardless of the fact i would sign a stat dec stating the incident. It means nothing... why?

Two officers, my word against theirs. Usual story really as Police are well known to lie black and blue in court to protect each other (as i've personally seen on a number of occasions).

I must admit i laughed the whole time @ the fact i was assaulted for nothing more than half a dozen words... yet i know 1000% it would not have happened had i been in a group of 4+ people.

The 'police' wonder why there is no respect for them when they behave like that... bunch of silly muppets really.

(no offense to you Graeme - i know without question you are a decent officer of the law as opposed to the vast majority who are simply sub standard)

As a general rule, it is arguable that Alcohol, or rather the excess consumption of Alcohol is the main culprit in the recent spike in Violence in Melbourne; particularly when considering the violence that is occuring on a Friday / Saturday night in the CBD.

Having read through the entire thread, I can see the main contentions revolve around increasing police numbers / creating new government policies / harsher penalties etc. I would argue that it is the nightclub owners / managers need to take more responsibility in terms of the serving of alcohol, particularly to those who may already be intoxicated.

After all, this is where the alcohol is being dispensed. If it is anywhere where harsher penalties should be implemented, it is within the bar, to establishments who clearly break the rules by serving alcohol irresponsibly.

That's incredible! Perhaps you could check out whether the buildings had any surveillance cameras? I would imagine there would be a good chance of this?

^ unfortunately there is not a lot stopping your mate from buying you another beer if you are over the 'virtually impossible to judge limit'.

And hence - you can go far beyond any liquor licensing laws.

End of the day - it still comes back to the good ole slack ass Police officer that are more concerned about making money than doing proper job

That's incredible! Perhaps you could check out whether the buildings had any surveillance cameras? I would imagine there would be a good chance of this?

There probably would be - Freedom of information however (and so on) would render this largely useless however.

The Police know this - i know this.

By the time my application of any possible footage is granted/approved it will have 'expired/overitten' as there is no set laws to state how long private footage is to be sorted/kept for security reasons :bunny:

The Police are not stupid in that regard, the officer knew exactly where he was, had a good look around to make sure there was no-one else to witness it and so on.

It is almost as if it were a sneaky drug deal considering the way they went about it.

Not surprising in any way, shape or form however. The Police are there predominately to make money.

They know i can't do a thing - i know i can't do a thing.

Unless i had two mates or something both filming it from other sides of the streets - the officers would simply lie in court and it would go their way.

Similar to charges they have lied about in the past when i've had to go to court - luckily i had decent supporting evidence then so the judge saw through them rather easily.

But all it comes back to is this - there is no punishment for Police who colaborate to lie in court

If you get wrongly charged and taken to court (and charges dropped), the officer in question just walks away, virtually no questions asked style.

However - If the officer was made to cover say "costs upto $300" out of his own pay when lodging a charge (should it be dismissed) - you would soon find that ridiculous policing, like revenue raising fines for cars etc, would go away - and real policing with factual evidence (crimes, assaults, rapes etc etc) would actually benefit from the whole situation.

That wont happen of course. The Gov't relies on the income :bunny:

Yea right, nice story Nismoid, you always have some little analogy to back up ur point but most of us know that 95% of the stories u say a purely lies.

I mean this might have worked 5 years ago with ur little world of warcraft buddies but you don't seriously expect us to believe a story like that?

Fool

Yea well i have a story too. I grew up in an all my white mates and they have all admited to me that it is "their own" that are creating the trouble. Does that prove anything? No.

As has been mentioned here already, maybe if u actually went out into the real world and saw with ur own eyes what is happening you would see a much different picture than the one ur getting from sitting behind a computer screen

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
