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.

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.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
