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 used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
