Did anyone just see the news segment about WA being shit drivers ?

Couldn't help but laugh when they show filmed footage of bad drivers, one of them happened to be a Silver R33 4door (normal WA plates) driving at warp speed and slamming on the brakes to slow down quickly before tailgating another car!

You d*ckheads the press love it!

Wasn't me! :rant:

I missed it damn! I wanted to watch that! Saw the comercials.

Drive anywhere else in the worlds and you will be able to say with much conviction - WA people ARE shit drivers

Though most of them are aged between 40 and 55 and drive company cars..

I was laughing the whole time hahahah

Yeh, i thought the guy in the four door was really FLYING!! The guy doing the segment was probably travelling below the speed limit anyway...

Stupid news hahahah

But yeh, drivers do suck here..

holy shit that was news...

seriously, wat is their definition of news these days...a cat dying? far out, its all a bunch of bs.

used to be who believes the weather man, now its who believes news readers and their crap. 99% propaganda, 1% factual.

Yep agree with that .... Italy and Perth are the worst I've come across

Italy, like in Rome is bad...very bad..But on the motorways over there driving is fantastic, I drove all over Europe, no one hogs the 'Fast' lane it is for overtaking pure and simple...once your done move back over...seems so simple...yet the majority of Perth drivers find it so hard! :angry:

Agreed! I loved the motorways around Europe. You could cover a huge amount of of distance in a day.. record was from the top end of Slovenia to halfway down the Croatian coast inside of 6 hours.. :(

No way you could cover half that didstance quickly in this country..

C'mon guys...no matter where you are you will always come across bad drivers. I used to think a lot of drivers in Perth were pretty bad (I especially hate that hogging the fast lane) but I think Perth drivers have nothing on London drivers. I think I would be reluctant to drive around at all :angry:

From what I see, all road rules are thrown out the window (motorways probably a different story). Cars and bikes driving down the wrong side of the road (even with traffic coming the other way). No one ever seems to indicate, lane changes at last minute, turns at last minute (even if people are in the lane next to them that they have to cross). No wonder 80% of cars on the road have scratches and dents on almost every corner. There is also a heap of bump parking. Would hate to have my car here parked on the side of the road.

I cant wait to get home to Perth for some open road and at least some sanity on the road :(

Perth drivers are shit because they are either old or pissed off at the camera that just got them

also has something to do with the amount of cars to main road "arteries" that are around Perth....comon' we have the 4 major freeways into Perth and a couple of other roads with MILLIONS of traffic lights along the way and thats it

shit road design pays for shit driving

EDIT: especially when people are parked in the left lane in the city at peak hour in the morning, now that shits me!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
