After watching this report they also seem to be mixing the story one is about drag racing and the other drift to me its just a report

to stir everyone up, but we should take the chance to try and voice the need for more race tracks in NSW at a cheaper price to get people

off the street in a controlled environment

^^^^ perfect if there were places for people to go i.e tracks they would be used, the amount of money they pour into these task forces could easily build a track and have a better impact then fining everyone and defecting cars!

anyway no chance that will every happen, however its annoying that the public is seening driffting as a hoon sport and not a motor sport now!

You also have the opposing view that building more race tracks will encourage this behaviour. I don't support this view though, we do need more. Considering theres 1 racetrack for a city of 4 million, otherwise you need to drive an hour and a half or so to wakefield.

Watching the video the guys an idiot. Go to eastern creek or something if you want to drift.

I do take offence at the fact that they portray drifting as an illegal activity, which it is on public roads, on race tracks though it is a legitimate and world wide sport.

IIRC on the radio or news or something, it cost NSW tax payers 10m for the Homebush V8 race.

This just a 1 weekend a year race.

Just imagine if they invested that much to say...the Lucas Heights motorsport precinct, or the Wyong shire one....

The NSW governement would actually get more investment out of the new tracks, every weekend Wakefield Park and Eastern creek are booked out, and its hard for smaller clubs to book a day at these tracks.

So instead of spending our 10million one a 1 weekend event, how about they build a proper facility where they will make more money in the long run?

I do not understand.

Oh, and more importantly, the NSW government can help reduce the loss of lives by having proper driver training there....or more revenue...I forget which one they want more....

Not that the NSW Government will listen to that logic. Perhaps if and when the libs get in they'll can that race and build another track.

bahaha libs spend money on minorities? i highly doubt that.

fact is, ACA's target audience is old berryl and bob who will take things as fact as they are ignorant to pretty much everything - they will not change the way they approach their stories because it gets the greatest response from their target audience - old, ignorant, idiots.

hi, im jimmy fuckface, an ACA reporter. all people who modify cars are bad mmkay.. here is johnny fakeexpert, an expert in car racing

*dresses bum in normal clothes and gives him important title* "yes thats correct. they are ALL bad"....

thanks johnny, see i told you so.. back to you.

you gotta love the fact how everyone that ACA interviewed where watching that touge video so closely and analyzing it... Trying to figure out where in Australia this video is from LOL...

it still amazes me how biased and manipulated facts and stats are by the media and yet so many people accept/believe it as fact... :D

and just as i write this - i hear screeching tyres for about 30 seconds near my area.. LOL

I have to agree 10m for a race weekend waste of money its time v8 super cars put some money back to grass roots motor sport

can you imagine if the nsw government and v8 super cars pooled there funding together along with profits from the racing series and revenue from

there safe driving campaigns they could build more tracks and employee people to work at them dangerous driving off the street, more people with work

win win

LOL especially at old berryl and bob.

The whole program is sensationalist designed to scare you and demonise minoritys whether it be car enthuasists or any other group small enough to be ragged on all the time without the majority standing up and saying WTF!?!?! I especially like the episodes where they find these people who got high interest loans from the local "we give you an advance or your pay cheque" folks and then they end up owing them 10's of thousands of dollars and its some how the lenders fault?

Its true that they need to build another race track... *cough* kurnell *cough* anyone? lol.

I never bother driving to the city @nights anymore since police usually get heart attacks when they see circle rear lights. (x2-4 worse if you have import mates with you).

So i usually just drive on sundays during the day...

Infact when i used to own a silvia a cop once chucked a handbrake to try to defect me. How lovely.

I've never lost any points but its okay... lets thank Bob and Berryl mentalities.

QUIKKKK GETT HIMMMMMM!! Sound = Speed! / Hoon!.

  • 3 weeks later...

I love the mentality that these articles create.

I own a V35 350GT8 SEDAN!

When going for job interviews, so what car do you own?

A skyline.

I have almost lost people then and there but they look and argue with me that it's an infiniti not a skyline.

just because it's badged like that.

But yes, people that race on the streets are idiots.

I will admit, whilst overtaking I will give it a bit of gas. But that's farrr safer than slowing down to overtake.

Like people on the motorway who are cruising at 100 next to you then indicate, then slow down to 80 when they're in front of you. WTH!?!?!

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
