Just saw this
on 9's ACA. Another bad name for Skyline owners as the news are saying it's a skyline. But is it?

made me farken angry how they just guessed it was a skyline - , i know what it was and i dont really want to help the cops out they can work out what it was . :laugh:

More bullshit "journalism" by ACA as expected. Clearly they used the word 'skyline' for it's common ACA definition (Skyline - A hoon vehicle that hoons drive to perform burnouts)

At least they threw some commondores doing burnouts into the video to offset their blatant mistake.

Tracy, you sicken me

the melbourne hoon looked like he was in an r32 though - but i could be mistaken, it was a crappy video showing the doughnuts being done....

i saw this when they had the story on this driver on ACA, and im pretty sure it is an r32 also.

you guys are idiots.

they dont give a f**k about what exact car model it is...

we only do because were the car enthusiasts...

al they care about i putting up a story about hoons and what not.

and rightly deserved, that guys a douche bag.

yes theres something cool about a burnout in a very public place. but still the amount of risk thats involved is unbelievable

cutting yourself because ACA called a cefiro a skyline???? get a life

ACA and TT are terrible "news" shows. I'd be surprised if anyone actually takes them seriously. They're the televised version of New Idea and Womens Weekly. Also - inb4 al33x having a baw about a Skyline "hoon" thread.

+1

If you rely on these programs to conenct with the outside world you probably shouldn't be allowed to vote :D

I'm over it so much I wrote an angry letter...

Then walked away from my computer for 30 min...

Then came back and read my angry letter...

And still hit send...

Stupid Tracy and that tool Tom Steinfort's tag line "The Skylark in the Nissan Skyline"... :D

Your the idiot. You don't get the point at all do you? It's the fact these guys are ment to be "professional reporters" giving "factual details" about an event. If they wanted to know what car it was, they could have easily found out. If they had no clue, they could have left the model out and just said a 4 door Nissan. In no way does that Cefiro look like a Skyline. The fact they said Skyline means they choose to say that model of car due to its association to hooning. To the average joe it would look like a Nissan Pulsar or Maxima or something from that footage being a 4 door car (most people don't know Skylines come in 4 doors). But they didn't call it anything else, they specifically said Skyline.

So think for a second before you make yourself look like the idiot. No one here is getting cut up and offencded that the car was reffered to as a Skyline as an insult.

ok so i read your post. and still... i dont think "you get the point"

why the f**k would they go on "introducing" a new type of nissan to general public. when its so easy to pawn it of to a skyline?

my point is, they dont give a f**k.

being emo about it isnt going to change shit

harden the f**k up seriously

OH NOES!!! THATS NOT A SKYLINE

all they see is a douchebag breaking the law. thats all i see. the only thing i like about that video. is the amount of awesomeness it has lol

serious ACA.. lol more dishonest every time you run a 'hoon' segment..

do they realise their are people out there who arnt dickheads? typically throwing all import drivers into the 'hoon' class again.

If it was a skyline doing it they would deserved to be named / fined / impounded - but get it right.. your ment to be the media..

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
