Tom,

ps new HSV's have the butterfly valve for exhausts, they arent "high end cars". a lot of people cannot afford high end cars.

As with ABS and powersteering, the technology eventually becomes available to more as it gets cheaper.

How isn't a HSV "high end"??? bogan royalty!!! New HSV's arn't exactly cheap either though...

Here is some revenge on the stupid government that is killing the car seen! Even though its not cars I just saw it and laughed. Thanks to the PM the economy is going down hill. So they need squeeze money from car enthusiasts to keep the government alive.

Bullshit. People have been getting defected simply because its an EASY WAY TO MAKE MONEY. It has NOTHING to do with the hoons, the hoons story is just the icing on the cake for them to put it on top to make a shit idea look good. The public probably doesn't give a shit if people are getting defected for exhausts, window tint, etc. But show them these people racing in a tunnel then have the government claim that that is why they are doing it and BINGO. Something the public will jump on side with.

You want me to honestly believe you have driven through any tunnel in a skyline and NEVER EVER given it some stick to hear the sounds in a tunnel. If you can HONESTLY answer that you haven't, have a pat on the back and sell your skyline.

How can you be a skyline driver and be so f**king boring?

I really doubt there is many, if any, here who have not genuinely given there car some stick to either A) hear it, B) feel it, C) show it.

When paying rent and utilities is more of an option than an obligation you end up with cash to toss around. Mind you what's a 2 year old hsv worth these days - 40k give or take?

The bugger has got an exemption for no reason, its a load of crap. Deserves everything he gets, considering the fact that he was probably violating the terms of his exemption anyway.

Really harsh there, considering we don't know the whole story... I really love how the news crew was there when they originally pulled him over... so not set up at all.

How can you get an exemption for no reason? In the film clip I see a V8 Range Rover and the M3, both need an exemption for a P plater to drive, legit reason for him to have an exemption is he doesn't have a non Pplate exempt car to drive, hundreds of others have the same exemption.

And this statement is a bit of an Oxymoron " considering the fact that he was probably violating the terms of his exemption anyway.". Fact and probably in the same sentence.... :glare:

Tomic should have gone home after the first incident unless his exemption is valid and him getting caught the second time was within his exemption conditions. Although chances are the cops are right.

umm I'm sure he had an option to buy a car that was not turbo or 8cyl. pretty simple right? people taking the piss on laws (or thinking because they are famous or have money that they can ignore them) are exactly what makes it so much harder for normal people.

for every wanker like that, the rest of us have to work 10x harder at being good

There's a lot of bitching in here but has any one had any dramas over this operation?

I am not real happy about it but have to take my car up to Syd tomorrow to drop off.... Hoping if I run into them they'll take pity on the blonde with the ACT plates!!

Just bat your eyelids, and giggle a lot.

You'll be fine....

    • Nah, they'll do it without a receipt, tell em roughly when it was, that it was cash, youll likely only get store credit, but that gets you some dollars towards the newer better shovel, or other item you need/want later.   Still take it back and have a crack at returning it.
    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
