I know this a Skyline/cage sight but...... :mad:

(Joe, you'd be aware of this off the PSB site)

This Monday (24-05-04) Today Tonight are running a story on motorbike 'hoons'. They downloaded footage off the Perth Extreme site and intend to air it with 'expert' opinion being given by some wankers. Quotes include "They are loaded weapons ready to go off" "menaces to society" etc. You get the idea anyway.

As much as this won't interest you guys in the point of it's about motorbikes, the ramifications of this could be far reaching. SAUWA is a close group with high powered vehicles that enjoying pushing their cars to the limits, you know, driftin and stuff.

Who knows, the next story could be on SAUWA, probably unlikely but hey, it's a possibilty and this probably a bit of a warning that the sensationalising journos really don't care about the positives of group events but only focus on negatives.

Anyhows that's my 2 cents worth.

Have fun all :)

This will blow up in the car scene again when the SPR dvd/video is released. If your cars in any of the illegal footage they have i'd be asking for it to be removed.

The police use it as evidence to charge you with whatever you were doin wrong. hopefully in these scenes the SPR ppl were smart enough to bler number plates

it does go to show though that TT is real short on decent stories. Naturally the footage they show will be very selective as most of the stuff was done on dead end back roads.

It will be interesting viewing that's for sure, what they won't say is that most of theses guys are race riders, the group organises track days and workshops to improve skills.

exactly, we all fall under into the same group

anything happening to bikes we should take as much notice of since, as said, it's 'broad' enough to encompass imports

Sorry guys, I don't agree! While I do apprechiate the notice and interset in wellbeing of our club and drivers. I have been to some fast and respected cruises with selected participants. We all have fun but how we behave, as a club should not be mentioned.

There are those of us that appreciate an art of owning a Skyline. Hence SAUWA!!!

I love my ride; I respect the club rules and do not accept a term "Perth Extreme".

So don't affiliate us with statements like those, as there are others that read stuff on these forums. It is harmful. Again it comes to the language used.

So lets be mindful of such comments. I respect bike riders but dare I say that when you go for a bike licence you are told to ride defensively. Not aggressively mad. There is a cult to this image of patriots. I.e. An art of speed. Movies such as Gt40 run through Paris streets, the Z350 in Prag City .... Getaway_in_stockholm.mov do a search on the net guys.....driven by professionals and recorded on the pro equipment.....I say not armatures. Not everybody knows how to drive/ride. I don't have to say no more.

By saying this you've just said we break the law on cruises with "selected participants"...

?? Perth Extreme is not a term - it's a bike club man..

I respect bike riders but dare I say that when you go for a bike licence you are told to ride defensively. Not aggressively mad.

Again.. ?? you've just taken the same view as the public on modd'ed cars - a nice generalisation there..

I'm trying to work out what you're actually trying to say here Sexila...

Cam just trying to say and look at the quote ...from PSIKO....That just saying the things like that make you look like the oldies want you to, dangerous speed freaks.......

Lets be diplomatic about all this, and what is this "WE" business? hheehhe :)

Lets not attach adjectives to other people as we are not all the same...

This is a fight I can't win I know, its the same discussion I had with few insurance people.

Try telling someone you are calm and respestfull of others when you are driwin an inport.

There is a saying "You are who you are with" And that is missleading isn't it.

Again I say lets use smart language. Iknow you ride a bike Cam and drive Skyline but that doesn't make you a Mad Max does it?

Sorry if I have offended any bike riders ..... :)

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
