No, but some of them on this forum are the biggest nazis ever, its mainly the old farts. Just ignore them. Just find yourself an industrial area and have yourself a ball. Willowbank is in the middle of no-where and you have to drive ages to get there from anywhere in brisbane and plus you gotta get licence and entry fee, and pretty similar story to qld raceway.

go back to serbia

Mate I didn't kill your friends, and im sure if people were drifiting and doing crazy shit in an idustrial area late at night that wouldn't have affected your friends. Im just sick of people on this forum crying about QLD becoming a nany state, but then come and have the biggest cry on here about everything, they don't even realise that they are creating the nany state. Do you honestly give a crap if some hoon is tearing up his tires in the middle of nowhere.

no i dont give a f**k - i care when people post it on a forum which is kept quite tame

i dont think any of us need that sort of culture to exist on SAU

if you want to go race people go and do it at the track. plain and simple.

There is a difference between rules for the sake of rules, and rules to stop people doing things which are downright dangerous, and kill people.

People driving like idiots/racing/drifting on the street IS downright dangerous, and it DOES KILL PEOPLE. IF EVERYONE STARTED TO REALISE THIS, AND TOOK IT TO THE TRACK, MAYBE THERE WOULDNT HAVE TO BE SO MANY STUPID 'NANNY' ROAD RULES.

The OP asked about "Driving Fast" and "Racing" which are things that should definitely be kept to the track. It doesnt cost that much, is a hell of a lot safer and also a hell of a lot more fun.

If you want to cut a few circles in an industrial estate in the middle of the night, well thats slightly less on the dangerous side, but it's still highly illegal and we don't want to hear about it on the forums, and you certainly shouldn't be encouraging others to do the same.

Mt Lindsey highway near the border region is another of those "you'll fall off the road before you break the speed limit" places.

As for willowbank/QR: if you're to lazy to go out there to race, maybe you've got the wrong car...

I just don't like peoples high and mighty attitudes on this forum, when we all know for a fact that most of us have sped or chucked a little skid here and there, the car is a skyline and is tempting you all the time to have a go. I don't condone the behavior or encourage it, but id rather he be speeding and being retarded in some industrial state then in my local street.

Secondly I think you should have a look at the stats to see how many fatalities are actually due to speeding. The majority of deaths are caused by drug and alcohol related offenses, just everyone take a chill pill. You all go so crazy over a little skid and then you make the biggest deal about how terrible it is that you have your car impounded or eventually confiscated for it. Pick a side, you can't be on both.

he's serbian. it's in his blood to start fights/wars...

Just for your information, Serbia has never started a war, we were always defending. A small point they happen to consistently miss in the western media.

Honestly I don't give a shit what people say, If you look at the thread I wasn't the one who started the whole serbian thing.

i love reading this thread. by the way everyone is rude funny and smart ass in this forum, and also very helpful. i love giving it and taking it (non sexually)

u can do this driving you are talking about on need for speed, but im not sure when in the game you get the skyline. GT is way better and more realistic so i recommend that......

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
