Protest my ass. Was just an excuse for delinquint children of todays society to behave in the exact manner they claim they are not.

You're spot on. This shit is just an excuse to cause trouble. People love to see action and I'll put my car on it that 80% of the people were not there to protest, they were there for the excitement and to see some action.

I did not go out last night either because u don't want to get f**ked over by cops but there are a few thugs in your post which are stupid. #1. Don't act like you are a saint in he road and don't hoon around. Oubdidnt buy a skyline to drive like a grandma. #2 the reason this happened was because a LEGAL event that was cancelled that caused this. So if legal events don't happen people will take it to the street. Simple.

WRONG!

1 - Driving fast on a track and driving like a f**ken retard on the roads are two different things. Not every owner of a fast car likes to act like a spanner.

2 - Protesting is one thing but there is a right and wrong way of doing things. It's as simple as that, this is high school mentality...

One could only hope the photographer got pictures of the men who he said beat him. If that doesn't earn them a custodial sentence I'd be pretty angry, but not surprised.

Statements from a person charged with damaging the BJ store while in court today:

"I am willing to take whatever I cop in court on the chin," Lawson told the court.

"I am trying to prove that I'm not a heartless person and and someone who doesn't care by coming in and turning myself in".

Nice to see him standing up and taking his punishment. So common for people to blame others these days.

15k damage estimate is pretty low I'd have thought. Those windows would be 10mm laminated glass which would be big dollars, easily in the thousands, ad to that the car, the wheels, and the 15 or 20 Century Batteries that my mate had to go and replace plus the cleanup bill and it easily adds up to quite a fair bit.

Dude at work said he was driving past there in Friday night and he asked a guy what was going on, he was told by the dude "I dunno, I think there is some protest thing going on for some shit being cancelled" The guy didn't even know WTF he was there for! lol!!!

Hey Hamish, do you have pink hair or are you a rare rainbow troll ;) hahahahaa

Here is a rough translation of it:

I thought I was a hero, you know - being all cool and shit.

But now I think about it, I wasn't very smart on the night. I was such a dumbass that my picture is now all over the internet.

So I'm now owning up before the Police come and give me the big rubber dong so that my sentence is hopefully reduced and the fines/damage/costs associated because my parents will probably kick me out of home for this and that means i'll need to get a job.

It's also possible that he spoke to a solicitor before hand who told him exactly what to say to get a lighter sentence. What he said was very eloquent and did sound scripted, not what you would expect from a guy who trashes a store.

I'm hoping he just realised what he did was retarded and is manning up. It will be interesting to see the attitudes of the guys they start arresting over the next week.

considering they said today 25% of all serious convicted criminals recieved suspended sentences including robbery,rape,assaults etc..

ill be suprised if they even get a good behavior bond for 12 months..

    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
