It's Official - Canberra drivers ranked #1

as the worst drivers in the known Universe.

I need to attend anger management :(

This week has cemented canberra drivers as the worst c**k sucking, mother f**king, a**e licking drivers not only localy, not only nationaly and not just on this and nearby planets but the whole f**king universe.

Rant over ;)

No pole required - test results comprehensive and conclusive.

Hows your daily drive been since monday?

I already knew this.. some arsehole hit my car in the carpark a couple weeks ago

Edit: Do you realise that because you drive in Canberra you too are in fact a "Canberra Driver"?

Yeh prob is all we can do is bitch about these Canberra drivers, yet we're stuck driving in Canberra.. And getting lumped into the category of Canberra drivers.

Do my best never to be lumped into that category, but if I do something wrong, I wouldn't mind knowing.

So sick of people tailgating me though, esp when I often sit a couple km's over the limit as it is.

Maaaate WhyTry? How the hell r ya Goran?

It's all true, MkIII Supra and Prelude VTiR while the GTR be fixed up.

Shouldn't be too much longer..... :) like b4 Xmass. You still have your sweeeet fire engine red?

How much for a cut n bleach ;) ?

Oh and for you guys compalining about tailgaters - you wouldn't want to be in the right lane of dual carriage way. If there is a car up your ass -then move the fark over...............

and if you get a kick outta slowing down then don't be surprised if you get a fist through your drivers side window. ...it happens.

And this is what we like to call road rage.

Yes it bugs me if somebody sits in the right lane when shouldn't, but sometimes is needed due to about to take a turn off, or actually over taking.

If I'm driving right on the speed limit or a little over and I'm passing cars in the left lane, then you get somebody who wants to go 20+km's over the limit and over take, and sits on yours arse while you are trying to overtake at or barely over the speed limit. That is not good, not safe driving. They are being a total tool bag.

If somebody wants to tailgate me on a single lane road, and I'm already doing a little over the speed limit, I'll flash them my brake lights a couple times to remind them to get off my arse. If they don't, I will slow down to the speed limit, not stupidly below, but I'm not gonna put up with somebody sitting on my arse when I'm already doing the speed limit or slightly over already.

I'm not as bad as my father though, on the clide this car was talegating him for ages while he was driving with a trailor. Dad would literally slam on the breaks if anybody ever tailgated him. I'm not about to risk causing an accident, but that is why I will slow down to the speed limit. If the road conditions are not good, I will slow down below the limit so whatever gap the car is leaving, is a safe gap for the speed we are to travel. I don't do it to piss them off, I do it cos I don't want my car rear ended cos some turd is too impatient to sit back an extra meter when I'm driving at or just over the speed limit already.

Most sensible thoughts on driving J'son.

Single lane - no issue. Turning right no issue, overtaking no issue providing you movve back into the left once you have.

Overtaking should be done effectively and efficiently.

The "tool" who sits in the right lane from Greenway to Gungahlin is the smacktard I'm generaly talking about.

I maintain even if your doing the speed limit and your in the right lane and you see vehicles approaching from behind you, move over. Unfortunately most signs saying slow vehicles use left lane have been removed.

Stop road rage, don't encourage it by playing games in the traffic. Sometimes the guy in the car behind you is not as good as you at controlling emotions for Fwits.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
