Ill write it again :)

Last night i was down at the local oval near my house when i witness some pathetic youngens drive down to the local primary school oval and destroy it by doing burnouts for a few minutes and then driving out and hurting it off..

Im pretty sure i got there licence plates. But just wanted to know in your opinion if its worth reporting this or just letting it go.

report it ..... show no mercy for the trevs ..... they wouldnt keep quiet if it was one of us .... actually they would probably throw bottles at our car then go report it to police.

heck, you guys are pretty harsh!

And the "if it was one of us" justification is a bit rich.

I've never done anything like this, but I've done my fair share of dumb shit. It's easy to say they were destroying property but if you've ever done anything like tow a bin on your towbar......

theyre dumb kids doind dumb things - but it could be worse. they could be doing 200km/h through the suburbs or doing nuts in a crowded area where they could hit something or roll the car. at least they had the sense to go somewhere clear and open.

my thought is same aas Dans .... why should they get away with it? if they get away with it they'll just keep coming back and doing that and other shit. Its a form of vandalism!

lol what the? why would you start a thred to fined out weather to report it or not. ethier way its your word against theres the cops wouldnt do crap.

Because acutaly some1 else already reported it.

There must of been more than one witness now and because there car was pretty dirty so theres probly grass stuk in the wheel arches.

I was in favour of reporting them because there a bunch of hardcores, if every1 starts ripping up ovals then thats another thing cops will start blaming "hoons" for.

sorry mate not having a go, just thought it was werd. well you know you havnt done the wrong thing im just not sure it would of done much good, these things would be geating reported alot i would say. i dont want to stear you in the wrong direction good effert

Being a "soon to be teacher" report them.. and zanda... if it was u i would still report u.. its distryoing property.. Just think of how disapointed thoes kids will be when they get back from their school hols to see their oval ripped up...?? No doubt they wont be aloud on the parts that have to be regrown.. therefore not bealbe to play sport... That just cos some twat in a crummydore wanted a bit of a thrill

whats so bad about it being done on an oval? im sure everyone on here has had a go at swingin nuts on the road and goin driftin etc whether it be wet or dry so i think people shouldnt be so hipocrytical....

Would the view on the matter change if it was a carload of people in a skyline?

Does anyone else agree?

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
