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.

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.

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. ;)

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
