can't agree with you more Grim .... I am willing to bet our meticulously maintained cars can stop a HELL of a lot quicker from even 60km/h - 0 than most average rust buckets (nearly 2 ton Falcoons and Commondores) can from 50km/h - 0.

Ban low performance drivers and cars, rather than our beautifully built and engineered Jap cars, whose safety standards outstrip the Aussie built competition by a margin so wide it's not even funny!

Juust great... in a few more years the speed limit will be 30kms an hour everywhere, ..... why dont i just walk to work..  

Id probably get defected for my hand bag!!

ROFLMAO - your confusing the SAPOL with the fashion police...lol

Its a bit ironic, these beaurocratic (fark that was a big work, I need rest now.........) law makers were in their 20s during the 70s, (anybody seen the insurance adds on TV lately?) it was all about drugs, sex and rock and roll - and protests. A hugely rebellious era, where it was a requirement to challenge the system - now these are the onese that strip freedom off the average person at an ever increasing rate.

HMMMMMMMMMMM

Just thought i might add that SOME ppl shouldn't bitch about the system when they abuse it them selve hehehehehehehehe

Not pointing the finger at any one in particular hehehehehe.

I hope SHE knows who i'm talking about :slap:

Just a few complaints.

- I really am sick and tired of having to hit the re-circ button on the climate control to stop the stench of the bomb driving in front.

- Pulling up to a set of lights to hear rear brakes grinding metal on metal.

- Looking at the cars tyres in front only to see baldy's.

- Broken tail light lenses.

- One blown head light so the owner thinks its ok to use their hi-beams instead.

- Drivers that have no manners at all. Not curtious.

If you can't afford to maintain a car then it is simple. You shouldn't own one.

Catch public transport.

The Dob in a Driver campaign is now operational.

Maybe its time we start flooding them with calls regarding truly un-road worthy cars?

I hate to say it though.

All of my previous cars have been lowered. When they wern't lowered they never attracted any attention unless I did some thing wrong.

As soon as I lowered them .. pulled over cops walking around the car, poping the bonnet etc.

I have to say the same about the Skyline. I havn't lowered it. Same thing the 'kunstables' (like that word) don't bat an eye lid.

Well erm... only one has when he heard the stocker BOV makes its noise. Thank god for peak hour traffic and large trucks to hide my movements, he was a man on a mission. :P

Bit off topic but.. I was almost cleaned up big time last week.

I was picking up the other half in town at the end of Hindley street on King William near the nation bank. There is a small driveway type road that has loading zones between 9am-5pm. I was reversing out slowly as it is a blind driveway due to bus shelters, taxi rank etc.

All the traffic was stopped filling all lanes except for the very left lane that merges after the Hindley street traffic lights. I started to reverse out, the arse end was sticking approx 1/4 in to the inside lane when I saw the flash of a white VT commodore flypast. He would have had to be doing 60-70km/h kicking it back up the inside lane where I was pulling out. I honestly do not know how he didn't hit me.

If he had of hit me I would have spun around basically on the spot cleaning up people that at the time were walking around the front of the car on the foot path.

I felt the car sway as he want past it was that damn close. People around me looked stunned and flinched as he flew past.

    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
