So you have all concluded danielson did this? Because I'm not sure if anyone has meantioned this.... but the rims in the Herald Sun photo are white... NOT CHROME. I also don't see the decals down the side. At first I thought you guys were joking but now I don't know. :P

relax, i think everyone mucking around, right from the start i said the rims look whiete and theres no stickers.

steve

Just on that note (by the way I'm not trying to say it was danielson lol!)...

If you put chrome wheels on your car that are a pretty full design (ie not spokey - don't know how to explain it, say danielsons is a full design and r34 wheels are a spokey design)... and then take a photo of it with the light reflecting off them... what colour would they come up in when you printed them in a news paper? (ie not on a ring-a-ding photo printer)....???

I know what colour i'd guess they came out as (that light reflection is a key factor i believe).

just for curiosities sake? anyone?

(p.s. excuse the poor spelling)

Wouldn't be the first time a police department pulled a stunt like this in order to validate a crackdown on 'hoons'.

Think about it. They buy a Skyline, give it big wheels and fancy paint, take a few (bad) photos of it doing stupid things, and woila, they've got an excuse to pick on ALL of us.

The car might have cost around $30,000 including paint and rims, and now they can jack up the price of fines they give us, which will probably bring in another few hundred thousand dollars a year.

Not bad thinking, eh?

and that wouldnt be the first time i've heard of someone saying something similar to that either.

same goes for aca and shows like that whenever they wanna make stories out os "hoons" etc.

they go out... find a bunch of bored p platers and stuff, tell them to jst drive like idiots, video it... then wind it into some bullshit story.

i read it in an article somewhere once. cant remember where. but dont think it doesnt happen.

Haha.this thread is so amusing.We all jump to a conclusion.Then we change our minds.lol.

Personally i dont think that he did it.But having said that i havent seen all of the pics of the car in question that were in the paper.All i saw was a bike doing a front wheel stand.

Belive it man.They would go to extrordinary legnths to get the right information and pics for a news story.

point out where i agreed with anywhere in the previous 4 pages?

i didnt. i dont believe any of the media's bullshit at all.

its hard to believe when... you turn on one ch and see a story, turn on the next see the basic same story but twisted slightly... and then on the other channel the same thing but twisted slightly again.....

Need to remember that they throw around this stuff to sell newspapers, and get ratings.

Most of these pop journalists have as much integrity as a used car salesman.

Remember the Today Tonight video of the WRX, which was actually from New Zealand? They went on and on for weeks about how they were going to do something about "hoons on our roads".

Then remember the photos of the "hoons" that theyd pulled off the internet?

I'd take it all with a seriously big grain of salt.

The biggest problem is idiots on the road without basic driving skills, like knowing how to merge at speed, following basic road rules, and keeping safe distances between the vehicle in front.

In my area at least "hoons" in "hotted up cars with big exhausts" are outnumbered 100 to 1, by retarded soccer mums who drive over roundabouts and curbs in 4WDS.

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
