Point was to stop having a whinge mate

last night a white 31 was into a pole at the start of the express way, looks like they tried to take the entry to the express way too quickly in the wet and went head first into one of the light poles.

Hope it was no one from on here!!!

seen it too, dont think it is shaun. Its been a spot on the 31 club before but dont think they're a member there either. what time did u go past it?

haha, ezyreg thinks thats an acceptable plate...

haha, their language filter doesnt seem to work

Before anyone else gets their knickers in a fkn knot and starts yet another thread (it's been soooo done to death) about what is essentially not an issue as far as I'm concerned, I've put together some key quotes from that article Mitch provided a link to....

"These repeat offenders are hell bent on driving dangerously and engaging in anti-social behavior,"
"They give little or no thought to the safety of innocent road users or their own safety.
^ True. Selfish f**kers probably deserve what they get!
"Our message is if these hoons persist with their irresponsible behaviour, then we will crush what they value most, their cars.
"Illegal street racing may give some drivers a quick rush, but their dicing-with-death antics can have consequences lasting a lifetime and that's why we want these drivers off our streets."
^ True, I know I want these f**kwits off of the streets too.
Road Safety Minister Michael O'Brien said it was not only repeat offenders who risked having their cars crushed, but also those caught once for high-speed street racing[/b].
"I think the community wants this too. They are not prepared to tolerate this."
And so they shouldn't

Simple equation really:

Act like a f**kwit whilst driving your car = get your car crushed

Drive your car responsibly = nothing to worry about

Same. It's pathetic.

I guess when it comes to the opinions of some others on these forums I'm not entirely convinced (or paranoid enough) to think that these new laws are going to single us guys out as hoons in order to crush cars just ffs.... maybe I have too much faith in the justice system :D

meh no use trying to turn a brick wall into a window so they can see :D

the end of the day if used correctly i dont think anyone will have a prob with it, its just not everyone has such blind faith in the law being used correctly.

i seem to recall a cop having a chat questioning if we have been doing burnouts and then leaving ripping 1 on his way out. hmmmmmmmm double standards

but then there are tools that seem to race ignoring other cars on the road like the ass that nearly hit me in his soarer, think that needed a padling or crushing :domokun:

Ah ha! So the Stag has influenced you!!! :blink:

You should know better by now than to post up a "what to do with my car" request Cara. You'd rarely get a sensible answer. The answer you want is in those car mags you've collected ... have a browse and see what works for you. :D

hahaha yeah i think i have waaayyy to many car mags lol.

i love it how people are always trying to point out something even though its too late , f**k off and dont talk to me about it thanks.

your car is orange.

well ive pulled my car apart lol got the rocker covers off and all and gonna go start cleaning it all up ready to paint. found out something interesting however, the airbox that is attached to the bit that goes into the throttle body, was melted underneath!!!! it had been touching my extractors :domokun: explains quite a bit on why she is always either running rich or leaning out ....gonna try and get a nice shiny pipe to replace the black box and tidy up my engine bay a bit :no::)

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
