There were some dudes up at houghton last night drifting in the  middle of the road.. AE86's i think.  I was on the way up to my mums.. they were taking it pretty seriously by what they were doing.... I wonder if it was in preparation for saturday?

Came down my road (range rd nth) the other day too - Blue AE86, plates where NA 1600, driving like he thought he was Shcumacher

I'm sure in the near future a gum tree or another car will remind him that he is not....................

And I wonder why my neighbours and people on our roads think all jap car drivers are doing crazy shit like this all the time

Doesn't give the public a good perception of jap car enthusiasts, and we wonder why everyone is getting pulled over and harrassed by cops

I had a cop waiting at the top of my drive not long ago, I approached him in my car and asked him what he was doing -

"We had a call some people where driving dangerously and one almost hit another car" fair enough I reckon, shit like that on public roads isnt the right thing to do, and if people get caught, bad luck

In the end, its just going to get to the point where there will be so much attention from the cops due to a few people, owning a import will not be worth it

Couldnt of been better said chris, i look at other sa forums and all hey brag about it there sik drifting the previous night at various sa locations. Then ill look a few hours later and see, f**kin cops, i got defected etc....

Its a waay to often senario which seems the real enthusiasts such as some of us get burnt while the others keep ruinin it for us all.

I agree Chris, some people dont have a clue, I see alot more holden and ford drivers doing crazy sh1t on the roads - and not in modded cars either, usually the heaps of crap.

When the imports are all off the road, they will only have local built cars to pick on. People will drive like d1ck heads no matter what cars they are in, its the driver not the car.

I know people that thrash their commodores up through the hills, so its not the unique domain of the import owner. Hell some drunken d1ck in a ford decided to do a reverse gear burnout through an intersection and just about hit Deans car (I was passenger) one night during a cruise.

If your neighbours think its just jap car drivers, then they are unfortuneately stereotyping. Not much anybody can do about that - its human nature somewhat.

So true guys, but its falling on deaf ears. How long have people been doing burnouts and racing on streest for? Since 50's? 60's?

So why has it become a problem associated with "Import" cars and their drivers when we all know stick basically anyperson in ANY car and they still will try do those stupid things.

And this now gets me to the whole consfication of cars that may be introduced, which i know will target import cars.....

And steve, yeh i remember that bogan, and ur sik navigation skillz

Anyone go today?? I liked the grey R32 (no biased opinions here :)) Also thought the white Dr30?? was pretty cool. So was James and Trent though :P

Damn that rally spec commie can go at it:) If they made em like that from the factroy i would sell the line :(

Mark's 33 Is NUTS tho hahaha

Pitty about it kissin the wall tho it is a sweet car.

JMS had some SUPER bad luck, Danny with a failed gearbox and christian not making it.

Have to say as well the D1 Garage Car's gave me an eyegasm when i saw them haha, and the skill they have is nuts!

Yeah Kelly's Gray 32 is nut's he has alot of skill to, and just to top it off.....

Riddle me this.....

Why the hell was that peice of crap ford out there i mean that Commie had skills but i mean please, i'll get my mum out there in the Laser next meet and she will do better haha

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
