I'm doing this survey on behalf of Oz Drive (the Australian Drivers Group) and would appreciate it if you all took part, there's no right or wrong answer, we are just trying to guage peoples attitudes.

Hypothetical situation:

You're driving along in a suburban street, in your mirror, you see another car closing fast, doing 80 or 90 in a 50 zone. Would you?

A) Ignore them and stay at your current speed

B) Speed up

C) Slow down

D) Pull over and let them go past

Thanks for your participation.

Match their speed once they're next to me, tap the horn 3 times to signal it's on, then go for it :P

Just kidding, I'd probably drive at my current speed if not slow down a little. I'd be constantly watching them in my mirror to make sure they're not going to hit me though.

EDIT: I guess that means my answer is A :wave:

A until they hassle me.

C if they tailgate REAL close and are giving the bird etc.

D if they obviously wanna get past, but aren't being tools about it.

BTW my mate had this happen today, he stayed at 50, commodore got angry, had a wheel brace (the rod type ones) out the window waving around...ended up taking a short cut(well long cut but went fast) and throw a bottle of brake fluid at the car when he got out in front, then took off ...mate chased him..ended up out the front with the guy with the iron and him nothing, the wuss wouldnt come onto the road tho (ie. mate didnt wanna trespass and the hero was a wuss)

Cops rolled past at the time, so now they are going to caught.

A.......ill give THEM the choice to slow down and go the limit behind me or overtake me. its on them not me to act as im doing anything wrong:D:D

depending on the mood also id join pred and follow the guy home and burn his house down *evil thoughts*.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
