A few shitty cars like Mazda 3s, Honda Civics.. mainly just stupid P platers

Been tailgated, slammed brakes really hard.. no more tailgating :)

Then they overtake me and abuse me, so I follow their car with a creepy smile on around till they start speeding and driving erratically.

I've followed some dumb betch home before and abused the shit out of her till she started crying. Then I said I hope you've learnt your lesson and apologised for making her cry and left.

I'm a dickhead.

One serious case was i accidentally drove into a dead end construction site road at night time in Bankstown and this riced up P plate Honda Accord with big guys in it blocking off the only exit so i slowly and carefully squeeze past them and they said "Who you looking for ?" to which i said no one and sped out of that dead end then they chased me around Bankstown very closely (can't see their headlights), i had to block their lane so they cannot get in front of me as they try to overtake me to do god knows what, they even sped past a red light to chase me, i lost them by going around and around at the round about then parked in front of the Bankstown Police Station.

Bankstown is dangerous at night time and Skylines have too much negative attention.

happens all too much, usually by middle age people (say 40-50) in 4x4's that have never been off the road.

bloody tough waste of space morons!

I hit the brakes a few times to flash my lights at them, if they don't back off I then slow down and try to box them in traffic just to really piss them off. =)

Single road situation, I am usually a tad over speed and if they persist I just slow down until they get the message and move back, works most of the time but sometimes it just makes things worse if you have a nutter up your butt :rant: then it is time to GO or pull over :blush:

I have a thing about young sheilas doing it and as soon as you go to a bendy part of the road the fall way back only to sit up your butt again on the straights :stupid:

A lot of the time people who get tailgated deserve it. The driving culture in Perth (where I am) especially is ridiculous. People sit in the right lane on the freeway either just doing the speed limit or a bit below and then have a little sook when someone comes too close behind them and high beam them. Here's an idea, bugger off out of the right lane sparky and you won't get tail gated.

But offcourse you do have those idiots who will tailgate you irrespectively so yeah....

      Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.

      braided lines for the turbos

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.

      I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.

      Alright I understand. The most likely case is probably gonna be that I just keep the OEM unit in the car as long as it works.
