Guys drving like w*anks of the gippsland highway in groups, doing illegal overtaking etc etc, with the passengers in the cars videoing it etc. There were three pictures, two of them showed cars doing burnouts but the biggest picture and what the article was mainly talking about was the Skyline. It was an orange 33, with 400r rear wing, skirts I think, GTR wing, big chrome wheels. If your on here mate your a tosser....

Ok here is the link to the article, just found it. No pic so I think I will scan the photo of the 33 if my scanner is working!

He encouraged passing motorists to use new technology, such as camera phones, to their advantage.

"If you've got the technology, then use it," he said.

"All we need is the numberplate and a description of the driver and we can follow it up from there."

WTF they want people to use their phone while travelling at 80kmh+ and they will follow it up just from a rego and description??? c'mon you can catch someone stealing something on film or photograph someone carrying a baby on their lap... and the police claim they cant do SHIT unless they catch them doing it???

"They were all hotted up with huge exhausts and everything." :)

Cool... I drive a "hotted up" car ;)

But, on a serious note, it was stupid what they did, but, how are laws or more police going to prevent it?

More police just annoy drivers as they can't enjoy a nice little drive every now and then, ( hill climb or something like that ) which eventually leads to them getting fed up and just doing it anyway out of frustration somewhere stupid.

Laws.. Ok how about the new no turbo etc laws? In my opinion more pople are being idiots now that they are just driving tired old cars around ( old holdens and fords etc ) and thrashing them without a care in the world because, they have little to lose, compared to say if they were driving an r32 gts-t or an s13-14 etc...

That's just my two cents..

That a great comment Nick. Many people are careful in cars such as skylines etc because they attract cops like flys to horsesh**...

put some P-platers in a $200 camira and who cares if it get confiscated, wrapped round a tree etc? (provided no one is injured of course)

The Govt isnt allowing young drivers to get experience anymore, and when there are very little places for "hoons" to get this stuff out of their system is guna happen on the roads. put up a 1/4 mile track and have entry cheap and there will be less accidents as the hoons have a safe place to do this crap.

Yeah, good point. Keep a copy of the article in your car somewhere and if you caught on your phone or smsing (which you shouldnt anyway..) just whip out the article and say well it told me to do it...

jackasses - now the cops will be on the lookout for anyone driving a jap import......

But i also heard something like, if the cops dont have any proof of the incidents, they will not follow it up.

Not that cops will not following up, just that they too lazi to be bothered with untill they are pushed or something make them to. (ie. publicity etc.)

My car was stolen, got a footage from a survailance camera, and yea, cop dont give a sh1t, cos its just a car.

after this incident, am sure import cars drivers gona have a hard time. :P

I can guarantee you that plenty of Magazine photographers hang out of cars like that or worse. How else do you think they get some of the crazy angled moving shots otherwise. I am not condoning the activity of course, just saying that it isn't just "hoons" that are doing that sort of thing.

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
