even public schools dont allow swearing. we used to get in trouble for that sorta thing, nowadays it seems parents dont care and teachers have to deal with foul mouthed little snots who swear because its cool.

forums will always be full of language and things you wouldn't say to someones face. this whole thread makes me laugh.

*on topic tho, yes this is quite stupid. And i hope they get fined or worse.

Yay for Birds :D

If you knew me in real life, I do swear more than everyone in this thread combined lol. But I agree, in written text, using ridiculous revenge scenarios and excessive swearing comes across as an emotionally irrational response to a bad situation, i.e. no better than the boost guys.

either that or he sounds drunk or high.. with his dog marley lol

It never ceases to amaze me the increasing amount of stupidity and idiocy among people of all age groups, of all 'enthusiastic' passions, of all backgrounds. Burnouts at a funeral; wow thanks, now even more people will give me dirty looks as I drive my skyline.

It tugs at a nerve or two when I see this sort of behaviour; sure I'm young, sure I drive a [reasonably] quick car, but I rarely (if ever) engage in such "performances". Least of all in such a deserving place of respect.

'Tsk tsk.'

agree 100%

im a very curteous driver. and i STILL get a head shake from the person i just let through etc when i could have kept going and let him wait for ages in melbourne traffic.

also, oldies. pwoahhhhh. slow down and come to a stop to let a little old lady cross the street. she calls me a f**ken idiot. lol?

You guys do realize that your over-used profanities are bringing you down to the level, right?

I struggle to take any opinion seriously when all they're saying is "...f**k...shit...f**kwits". It's even harder when you can't even spell your profanity right.

I'm not going to point people out, but Birds has demonstrated a very mature approach to expressing his thoughts as opposed to the various authors of other posts.

George; While comparing shooting people to burnouts is a bit of an extremity, I do feel that's what people do sometimes.

In response to the driveway; that is annoying. Get the boostcruisers out there cleaning it up imo.

As long as the people organizing the cleanup take a "Our mess our responsibility" approach with a mentality of "We don't want to disadvantage the funeral home after what they did for our mate", then it'll be a successful exercise.

Silvia GTR; Good point, I was just thinking in a 'then-and-there' frame of mind and didn't consider alternative locations.

I now know what I'm planning for my funeral... :)

Whoa there, we gotta swearing nazi

gtfo

either that or he sounds drunk or high.. with his dog marley lol

My dog is real and legit. Have not been high for 10 years.

I'm not going to play 'internet flame wars', but I am going to say...

Birds; WOOT I got sigged :D

Also, I'll believe you about your dog, but the weed thing? I'll come to a conclusion based on your age :P

RBNT; I'm not a swearing Nazi. I can be extremely vulgar myself. Note, I also said "over-used".

However, given the topic, public forum and peoples perceptions of Skyline drivers, I don't believe such immature behaviour should be displayed so vividly (in this thread). I'm all for discouraging hooning, but the manner people are using to express their disappointment with what they see as immature, poor driving is simply dragging them down to the level of the boostcruisers.

In years from now, people are going to stumble across this thread, and think, "Oh God, are Skyline drivers really that bad?" It's poor image.

Not that I'm a shining example of a good image, but I do try.

If you were talking to me IRL about this subject casually at a cruise or the like, I would be using curse words to describe them, but I don't think it's appropriate here.

Nee-san; Thanks for linking that thread, gave me such a good laugh. Hamiltonau's post was classic xD

But again, I'm not against swearing in general, it's just in this context I feel it's inappropriate.

mlr; byte me. :P

I remember quote-editting when I was 13.

Edited by SKITTLES

lol, but its the little things in life that me laugh

Also when I was 13 it was 1978 and calculators were the new things at school, Computers and "quote editing" for me is full of awsome newness.

Apart from them being the devil that is.

I often get a wave for letting people in, I also get people trying to brute force their way into tiny gaps and yelling and tooting when I don't really have the room or the time to let them in.

All luck of the draw I guess.

    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
