Bouncers are the worst shit on the face of this earth (well them and lawyers), so it doesn't really surprise me, but so fugged up!
This bouncer deserves everything he gets... there a bunch of tools who like to think they have power
So true, couple of idiots i used to go to high school with are now bounces.  

They are like cops, think they are something special, but they are really brainless ****s!

Don't you guys hate reading and hearing about how hoons in imported TURBO cars are causing havoc on the roads and that we all deserve to have our license revoked. Well this is what I think when I read sh*t like the quotes above. I have an IQ of 137 and I have been a security guard for 2 and a half years, I started a new job in IT today because I am also a qualified programmer, so you must understand that anger clouds cognitive thought processes and you are all not thinking practically, I chose to undertake security because I changed jobs and chose to go into IT so I worked 50 hours per week and studied for 25 with a partner and a child and a mortgage. You also must understand that bouncers do not help the police they actually create work for them by throwing people out of clubs and such, anyway the judicial system treats bouncers who do f**k up harshly because they are issued a license by an agency that is controlled by Victoria Police, ultimately it is the State and Federal Governments fault because they will not regulate the industry, it prefers to have shonky operators who go around to pubs and clubs and undercut other shonky operators who are doing it to someone else, anyway to cut a long story short, security companies and licensed venues only get what they pay for, pay peanuts and you'll get monkeys, or people who are desperate enough to work in sh*t conditions. Anyway my heart goes out to David and his family, the moral of the story is everyone don't generalise about one group or another because it leads to negativity, how would you all like it if one day someone does a burn out near your house in an identical Skyline and people come knocking on your door saying your a f*ckwit or calling the police onto you, you wouldn't like it would you, this idiot will do lots of time in prison and so he should but don't put htem all in a nutshell, I have some very good friends who are very smart who just didn't or don't have the opportunity to get out of the industry. Thanks for listening.

and here it is again... :werd:

i agree with you 100%

it's no fault other than the governments really... and the people that employer the 'goons'

A guy i know is a bouncer... and he is a tool.

And the judicial system in my view is NOT hard enough.

He got his head kicked in one night... and throughly deserved it. But no... it all gets turned around in court. It's hopeless.

As a bouncer with a license he should have avoided the conflit and not aggrovated it, and then cried foul when you get beaten.

And there are a number of local clubs to me that have rouge bouncers who get thier kicks out of dragging people around the back and giving them a few.

DAMN YOU GOVERNMENT!!!!

On the flip side

I also know another bouncer, but he is quite alright actaully.

Uses his brain, something you dont see sometimes.

Whilst this is a bad BAD thing to happen, and sometimes for action to finally be taken it does take such a tragedy as this.

and i hope this is a slap and a kick for out lazy government to finally get off it's ass and DO SOMETHING. Dont just say it's bad etc, get out there and be pro-active, not re-active

I feel for all involved, a close mate recently lost his brother to a stabbing.

it's hard when people are taken away without a chance to say good-bye's

As much as i HATE the guvment, lets blame the bouncers parents, their teachers, anyone they ever looked up to. Surely we can blame EVERY one else for the sadistic mentality these people have, except for them. "Fail the police force (open slather on peoples heads), lets become a bouncer, its easier, people are usually under the influence and they dont fight back when you hit them from behind".

Sincerest thoughts go out to David's family and friends.

No-one deserves that end.

And I heard 2 amazing pieces of news this morning:

1. This thug was out on bail for a similar attack. So, he's on bail for assault, and he's still working in a job that would permit him to commit further assaults. WTF!

2. Police are not going to upgrade the charges (presumably to manslaughter)

Actually I dont believe its the pubs fault - they use bouncers from a sub-contacted security firm. So it is the security firm that should be sued if anyone.

But it is a very sad day indeed. Hooksy was a great bloke and his opinionated manners were one of the reasons Austalian cricket is so healthy right now as he was never afraid to say publicly anything if he thought long term it would be good for the game.

:) to a great aussie bloke.

why is it when something happens we always have to blame some one else or an organisation

yeah the bouncer did do it, his fault but why blame all these other ppl or other bouncers

yeah some are idiots but some are nice ppl

ive had my fare share of idiot bouncers but ive also had my fair share of nice/good bouncers

hookys was a top bloke and i will miss him, he did alot of cricket!

just remember with any group of ppl there will always be an idiot out of them all

I think its a bit unfair to take it out on bouncers in general.. but i think most of us would have had bad experiences with bouncers in our lives, which tends to sours everybody's perceptions if you've had the shit kicked out of you, or watched your mates get the shit kicked out of them for little to no reason.

Hopefully if anything comes out of this, it will be tighter regulation and getting rid of the grunts from the industry. Sadly its the only way things get done in this country.

But Hooksie R.I.P

it is the companys that hired him's fault as its their responsibility ... eg ... if u work for some company its their responsibility for your safety and what you do ... i'm not sure of the legalities ... but i say both the pub owner and the security firm can be sued.

Thats right. Just like in my company if someone dies on one of our construction sites, our CEO can be sent to jail for it as it is his responsibility by signing the contract for the job to ensure the safety of everyone on site even though he is not on the site.

It will all go back to the big bosses.

hey, inasnt: what's the contact details of your "big boss".. might slip him a fifty .. lol

p.s. you might want to watch out for falling pipework, because "accidents" can happen in the workplace

:);)

My deepest condolences go out to the family and friends of David Hookes.

All I have to say is that this incident was a complete waste of life. I cant believe we live in a world where we can go out with friends/family for a good time and be killed by the people who are ultimately there to protect you. This thug had absolutely no right to attack anyone and deserves to have the book thrown at him... HARD. I hope his punishment serves as a warning to the other heros (not just bouncers) out there.

Yes, both the pub and the crowd control company would be liable, as they both have a minimum duty of care towards all patrons..... but what he did doesn't fit into the job description anywhere.

Hope he goes to jail for a long time. ;)

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
