Actually guys and gals we don't legally have the choice not to vote (unlike the US.) If you are over 18 you have to register and vote otherwise you can be fined... Of course you can just not turn up and risk the fine, don't think it's very much from memory..

Also even if Mz Roberts was ousted do you think the Hoon laws will change or disappear???? Doubt it somehow...

Brett, Your correct on both accounts, most likely the law would stay in-place, but doesn't mean we have to leave the bitch there to come up with other ways to make our lives worse. She has plans to add additional restrictions to the anti-hoon laws, including exhaust note and loud music:(

some religons it is their choice not to vote - and i was brought up in one of those religions (yes a long time ago)

I know legally it is required and if they do catch up with you - you do get a fine ..... but usually if you write a letter explaining your religious beliefs they let is slide.

And as Magic1 said, 100% of you will be voting against her since she is a minister for labor.

Vote for liberals, send Colin Barnett letters regarding it as HE is the one to gain from it (since he is the opposition)

The most worrying part about it is Michelle Roberts is trying to pass an amendment which allows people to dob in hoons, rather than it only being up to the police who physically witness the event.

Another scenario: Mr X's girlfriend leaves him for Mr Y. Mr X is PISSED, phones up the police and says he and his mates saw Mr Y doing a burnout in some carpark (with loads of old burnout marks to cover it)

Mr X has other people to back up his story; Mr Y is screwed.

This is a PATHETIC idea (why are we paying them good money to come up with such spastic responses to hoons????), and the current hoon law is a joke when it comes to, as said, peoples 3rd chance. Of course they should stop, but in the heat of the moment they might think they can get away with it, so will try and drive dangerous ly to do so.

Out with Michelle Roberts.

By the way, a mates car got stolen last week after the theieves did a ram raid on a bottlo ... got caught up in a police chase and were throwing bottles at the police cars. They got away because they drove up a one-way street and the police weren't allowed to pursue. If it's as easy as that to get away from police, then this is going to be an added incentive for the perpetrators to just run.

I really dont think voting should be compulsary anyway.

Lauren, that's something the Liberals would also like. Basically because political apathy is far more prevalent among the less socioeconomically fortunate.

If voting were no longer compulsory we would not get the same result with less votes. The result would be totally different.

I'm not, because people who have no idea what's going on with the governments (most of Australia) generally don't follow politics

Therefore if it weren't compulsory, then only the ones interested in politics would vote, and we'd have a government whose policies are most important for society, rather than the one who has been in the least embarrassments (which they'll read on the front cover of a newspaper and therefore sway public opinion)

That would mean that the government would only represent the few that voted, as much as I hate that dumb people are allowed to vote, I still think it is the better system.

Without wanting to get off track, I'm voting against labour cause I don't want this bitch to have any more say:D

I agree there's people out there that have no idea who or what they are voting for anyway.

What other countries are there where voting is compulsary? i dont think theres that many left.

I think we should all enter a dictatorship and make me your leader! :)

if that makes any difference to the laws she's put in place i'd be very suprised - she'll just be replaced with another bitch ...... i dont think whoever gets voted in is really interested in the minority groups and what they want .... they just want to appease the bigger groups like families and the older generation that makes up most of the voters by painting a picture that the youth of australia is out of control with their hoon cars and going into clubbing areas at night ..... and they are going to put a stop to it for the good of all. :)

Politics is just marketing ...... its like macdonalds series of ad's trying to paint a picture that its healthy to eat maccas ...... the politicians are trying to paint a picture that thier poisonous laws are just in the countries best interest to swallow.

So Niz what you are sayin is dont vote for females?

LOL male politicians are even bigger phuck ups ..... example: George Bush

In fact i think politicians are a species of their own from a far distant planet to make our lives miserable.

Up comming election is federal not state, state is at least 6 months away.

If you want to do something target public servants who think these policies up, or police commissioner etc

Michelle roberts is just a figure head puppet.

Liberal labour wouldnt make a lick of difference with a law like this.

breathe in breathe out drive sanely in sane areas.

a petition with 50 000 names would be alot better as an idea to show the idiocity of these laws

Tom

Agreed, A petition should be done now, shown to Ms Roberts, if nothing is done (likely) then if Liberal gets in in the state election then show it to them, then there would be a slight chance of getting it changed, more chance than if Labour stayed in. Worth a try.

I was having a walk at lunch time, and some tool in an ALP shirt was delivering ALP flyers for Kim Mackies "Making a difference in Swan" on a scooter. This dick proceeded to break almost every know road rule in delivering this junk. Where are the cops when you need them. Be funny to see one of there own being done for his hoonish antics:D

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
