ACA had the plates but choose to get ratings instead of take it to the police. which, if they did, would have found out the car had already been sold years ago and was only registered a few months after the video.

they make an attack video practically promoting vigilante justice, whatever that would result in to anyone driving a white s14 with a body kit. ACA couldn't give a f**k about peoples safety or fixing the problems, it would rather ratings.

the word hoon is like the new terrorist, it is DELIBERATELY not defined so they can get whoever they feel like. politics isn't about solving problems, it's looking like you have. governments will never resolve such issues when all they think about is band aid solutions. then again, why else do they call him, band aid brumby.

edit:

i'm actually surprised some of you guys took ACAs word on something about cars.

considering ACA is a fair and balanced news reporting program. lols

There was, at least he left his number plates on the car, so EPA or the popo's can catch up with him :blink:

popos LOL

Well apparently that car changed hands so the new owner will have to answer for it, some call it shifting the problems to someone else :cool:

Alr33x:

you dont know it wasnt blocked off at all your simply assuming. and the car has been sold and is track only for well over a year.. so shut up about the epa would ya's.

i cant believe this is a car forum some days soo much whinging and sulking when a guy gives his car some stick whether its this thread or another soo precious and concerned how people will think of you and your hover craft stock skylines (for the most part) get over yourselves, this guy got rolled hard by the media didnt do anything worse then i see on a weekly basis that you cannot stop unless government gets real and provides adequate facilities for this stuff to be moved off the street.

I have no problem with the presentation of ACA's broadcast of the story, there's no twisting of facts, and from the publics' point of view a worthy cause for concern especially if the matter hits closer to home than most people think.  

Let's watch the video again :

And here's the unedited video :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDCfsWy1QZY...feature=related

Pretty much the same thing except the driver gets to say a few words in the second video that MEANS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Looking at the conditions of the road and style of driving, he drives like a TRACK DRIVER who obviously has more skills than the average person.  Why take it to public roads to prove something where he could have easily proven it on the track?

Secondly, who gave the makers of this "youtube" video the right to CLOSE OFF public roads?

Thirdly, how would saying something about an audition in the video justify the outcomes?  Matters of the court do not care about HEARSAY, saying that "I'm doing it for Haiti..." or whatever doesn't give you jack shit for anything if it isn't backed up by written evidence signed by authority.  Who in the world is stupid enough to believe what you say?

unless government gets real and provides adequate facilities for this stuff to be moved off the street

Since when it is the government's responsibility to do that?

bozodos:

How do I have emotional bondage towards ACA?

You talk about your loathing not so much of the content but of the show itself.  Its fine not liking a TV show but trying to tell the whole world about it repetitively only mean one thing, you have issues. You are obviously more stirred up about a TV show than I am.

I like how you try and make out like it's all so clear cut and down the line without and further analysis or research of the situation.

The video is self explanatory, you can be 8 and still have the sense to know it doesn't look right.  The only reason why I responded in the first place was because there was this incredible outburst against ACA about their negative take on drifting and stunt driving on public roads! Are we on the same planet here?

You surely are the prime audience for these kind of TV shows.

I don't watch TV except eating in front of one but thanks for the generalisation.  Here's mine, those who leaves home or school early are not only more likely to misunderstand and abuse authority than those who don't, they are more likely to develop irrational opinions of politically corrective concepts like ACA.  Of course this is just a generalisation, brain storm it.

i've never seen someone products info to say otherwise.

produce?

thats a fkn novel of a reply.. ill keep it simple.

the story was a crock of sh*T and ill break it down for you.

ACA - HELP US CATCH THIS HOON BEFORE HE KILLS SOMEONE

they show an edited version of the video conveniently leaving out the part were he says his full fkn name aint no story in that though is there

so it was clearly a ratings attempt that was lame at best.. you have no first hand knowledge it wasnt a closed off road only speculation and i didnt say anything about court letting him off cos it was for top gear? soo umm i got no repsonse there.

oh and as for the government well i pay a f*k load of tax and even if they dont want to "provide" they can allocate and permit adequate facilities to be built by private sector to profit from..either way they have to be involved.

how this, an L plater no doubt with her Statutory Rapist boyfriend 'supervising' smoke her front wheels in her Honda as she tried to drag an Audi, just near princess pool hall. about an hour ago

So true, but the most important thing did she win? :happy:

On topic though the hoon problem and lack of any real solution is just like any real problem throw money at it and hope it goes away. Its just like education or health nothing ever changes unless it gets worse, politicians just make it loook like there doing something. Lets forget about the basics of freedom and rights, lets just take away these peoples car without trial without any real proof it doesnt matter as long as it appeases the idiotic public and the dumb f**k family groups (whos bloody children are the same people wrapping there cars around poles week in, week out)

i think rocklee is also missing the point that the video was not uploaded by the owner of the car

in fact it was uploaded at about the same time Ch9 bought Top Gear rights

The TG disclaimer for the stig applications also said that the drivers identity will not be released

Now, obviously there is something going on here...

If the government used the revenue from "hoon" laws to build race tracks/facilities and offset the running costs instead of using it for god knows what, then we'd all have somewhere to go to and use cars legally.

If you can honestly say that there are plenty of tracks in vic and they are all easily accessible, then you have must have your head so far up your ass its affecting your vision.

there's talk of a circuit being built here at the drag strip, I certainly hope so - there's about 5 or 6 dirt tracks here covering cars, motorbikes and BMX, but only a pissy 1/8th mile drag strip for bitumen! I think it would really change the way a lot of people here think about cars (ie straight line speed and power orientated) and therefore less likely to have people racing up and down the streets.

Even a public burnout pad would be a good means of tackling the problem of wankers in VN's HAVING to drop skids in Autobarn carpark every friday night and then those of us sitting around talking getting the blame for it.

Just a thought

"hood" synonym for "tax your ass" vis the +3km over the speed limit rule. wtf my speedo doesnt even resolve 3km easily, tho' that may be my closup vision :P

While there are masses out there they will be taxed somehow. if it's not for hooning it will be for jaywalking, singing too loud, looking too sad/happy, wearing socks with sandals, (insert your own thoughts here), etc

.

shit on it I say, but dont worry be happy.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
