Did anyone see the Today/Tonight story on Hoons ?

Just goes to show all the f'wits that do this are not the import owners, but good o'l Aussie vehicle drivers.... 99% of the cars where commodores, I did not see 1 import driver involved!!... the 1% was that stereo van.

Why were there no import drivers you ask?... well because the majority of import drivers are sensible drivers and respect the vehicle they have!!! .. its the minority that f it for us.

I hope the police read this post and realise who the moron drivers are out there!, please stop picking on imports and go after the real losers out there ... eg the VL/VN?VR/VS Commodre drivers that ruin it for everyone and can't do anything but burnouts.

Why do I feel like im hitting my head against a wall though when I say all this.

End rant!

Rob.

Yeah i sat there glued to the TV while my dinner got cold thinking this is gonna be a HATE peice focused n imports when all i end up seeing is COMMONWHORES!

Firstly is does just show who the real instigators of the problems are and secondly thanx for lettin my dinner get cold you barstards :) hehe

But seriously it must make the police think twice when this kinda of act is fully documented and caught on camera SHOWING that clearly in that footage there was 99.99% commondores.

Common SAPOL do us a favour and do something about the real problem, take a leaf outta VIC's book (can't beleive i said that) and do something about the real people cause problems out there on our roads.

Not all Commodore owners are losers mate.I own a caliais turbo and am nothing like that and never will be.

These guys are normally young P plater wanna be BROCKY'S, but dont put all of us into that bracket.

There are people out there doing that sort of stuff in all sorts of cars NOT just commodores.What makes people drifting there IMPORTS through industrial back streets any better? Just as bad.

No disrespect intended.

Majority spoil it for the minority.. oh or is it the other way around lol :D

It comes down to the ol' VL to VS's are pretty damn cheap to the point where every P plater and their dog can own one. This is why you see so many flying around, Just drive down Anzac on a Friday/Saturday night.

My sister who's 16 just bought a yellow VL BT1 on gas thats done what looks like a genuine 200,000km's for $1800 from a bloke that came in to some money and wanted a new car.

The imports.. some can afford them even though they are also getting cheap but the problem is insurance. This is what I think puts a lot of young people off them.

Its not so much its this car or that car its what P platers can afford at the time.

I think with the case of the imports its the minority that spoil it for the majority + a lot of the older school people really don't like the 'jap crap' cars.

My old man is one of them ;)

Thats my thoughts anyhow.

Sounds like you need to give him a bit of a 'late model Jap crap' education then mate ;) Ask him if he'd like to use his other eye :)

hahah.. i'm sure he will come around once he takes it for a spin.

He keeps asking me.. When are you dropping the motor in.. I say.. when i can get in the shed. ;) Funny thing is he used to freak out at me leaving the shed messy when I lived there, now i've moved out it is worse than ever. 1 VL Shell + 1 VL that runs but has no front shocks + wood shavings every where.. lol.

Yeah, i agree.

VL's and the like can be had for next to nothing these days, so they're affordable

to P platers for sure.

Imports are also getting very affordable, but like you said, insurance is a problem for these guys.

I am looking at putting my 500hp running gear into an R32 with GTR kit and 19's.

See how we go, very tempting.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      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.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      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

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
