I dont think you know the full story mate. Its done and dusted now.

i dont think anyone hates him, its all getting blown way outa proportion here. i thought he was a nice guy when he was chatting with us.

he just needs to calm down a lil bit in the burbs and when pulling into a meet spots with 40 plus cars and have some respect for organisers when they tell you to stop something stop it.

he's young im sure he'll mature in time. can people stop talking like he's been put in jail or something its hardly a punishment being banned from the page for a week

^ i agree.

he just has to own up to the cruise ban, and learn from it..no one wanted for it to blow into this.

and i speak for myself here, i dont think any one hates him at all.

Nathan from what I have spoken with him seems like an alright guy, but he lacks maturity in a big way. After all he is only 19(?). How many of us were very mature at the same age. The thing is, if you want to hang with older (or more mature) people, then it is expected that you ACT mature. Not like a 13 year old. What he did Saturday was not the first time he has played up and not the first time he has been warned. It is simple respect and curtosy that you honnor the requests of the person who went to the trouble to organise the event. Just as in motor racing, there are rules to be followed otherwise you get banned, same applies to normal roads and the cruises people organise.

We are no saints and we have all done stupid things from time to time but he needs to stop and think about the people around him and what implication his actions have on other people, rather than just thinking about himself and his wants. That's being mature about the situation.

as jenkies said, import drivers have been getting a bad rep and there is a good reason for it. Kellie is trying to do something to rectify the wrap that we have gotten by the actions of a minority of idiots.

Bottom line: Nathan's actions are not doing anything to help Kellie's cause and until he learns that there is a right way and a wrong way to behave amongst people and on cruises, Kellie has every right to do what she did. plain and simple.

As much as a I love fanging the car around, hills or other wise, remember that we are still on public roads and we MUST respect other people's right to safety on the roads. No matter how good a driver (we think) we are it doesn't take much to have a big one and that's the last thing we all want is to see another import on the news down a gully or wrapped around a post. :)

i did a function for SAPOL on sat night and i picked their brains a little.......the same message was said over and over.

Frustating and as futile as thread like this seem you can generally find some humour in it all when it's finished.

Needs a funny pic or 2 before deletion.

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
