Really sorry to learn about this. If we are honest with ourselves, we have all "given it a little" when we should not have, so now is not the time to be teachers, but learners as most of us have been lucky not to have it all go wrong like this accident.

Lets work towards getting better driver facilities for reasonable costs so that we can all learn how to enjoy our rides in the appropriate environment.

Perhaps we can get a group and lobby (like a lot of ppl have for 15 year old imports) and get some support.

Perhaps this way we can demonstrate to the public, policeand government that we don't really want to street race and break the law, it's more like we don't have anywhere else to go regularly.

Lets make a positive response the the negative, knee jerk reactions that officials come up with.

Those of you in Sydney.... if you can, listen in to the "Talkback" shows on the radio as the Accident made Front page news on the Daily Telegraph. So id say it will be a HOT topic of discussion.

For those who didn't/haven't read it yet.......

How many more of these events is it going to take to force the government to abandon its revenue first approach to road safety and actually tackle road safety head on - with education. Im so sick of watching my speedo so carefully to avoid speeding because it takes my eyes off the road too much!!

So I'm not the only one that bitches about this. I know idiots that drive around my town absolutely shit faced and they all tell me you never get pulled over if you don't go over the speed limit. I watch some of the dumbest and dangerous driving happen right in front of cops and they aren't even looking. Failure to indicate, failure to give way, in wrong lanes at roundabouts, etc. But if they aren't speeding, they know they believe they are the worlds safest driver because this is what the so called road safety campaign has tought them to believe. I pass on average 6 to 10 speed traps a day yet I honestly can't remember the last time I was breath tested.

Ban low performance drivers, not high performance cars.

Anyway, it's all too late for this tragic event. I hope the friends and families of the victims can learn to get on with their lives as something like this often means years of heartache for them.

FCKKK....dis has really left me dazed and numb...its just so saddening to see and hear about something like this happening to someone so young....

This really makes me think now everytime i wana hve a squirt in my car. I lost my license 6months ago for speeding, and im glad i was pulled over by cops instead of being put into an ambulance n taken to the morgue..

deepest sympathy to the families, and let this lesson be learnt by all people, young and old, where its a high performance or a low performance vechile

Hi Guys,

Condolences to the familys involved. But this is bullshit we all get upset at the police cracking down and no wonder why that could have been anybodys daughter in that car and the ****head has killed her as well as his mate. Selfish act and one that in my books is just about the worse thing you can do to anybody its a meaningless act that even if he did make it wouldnt have gotten him anywhere.

I hope all you young ****heads who speed through streets understand now that it can and will happen to you regardless of what ****ing car your driving.

Here, Here! I agree totally, yes it is sad for the families involved, but I am glad that no other 'innocent' party (oncoming car etc....) got killed because this persons actions.

Flame me if you want for my comments, but if someone killed a family member of mine as a results of actions like this, I would be unstoppable in my response.

Please, everyone learn that even Michael Schumacher crashes and he drives cars F*cking FAST for a living...

      V37 Radiator removal

      By Duncan · Posted

      So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic

      If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
