i need this clarified - is this a stab at ppl skidding/drifting on public streets, or ppl racing on the freeway or what?

either way not a good idea

Sounds to me like hes defending them :ninja:

+1 for not going to mercury, seemed like a nice bunch of lads but they scratched my rims, put my coilovers in my old car incorrectly, then tried to charge me $160 bucks to get them adjusted..

oh noes - brandon save yourself

QUICK!

I think only one person who actually works EFI was the driver of a car that night....and the 'skids' have been well blown out of proportion especially re the numbers of them.

From the SAU club you can count Warwick, Noel, Big Dave, Chris and a few random others as very happy clients

I know you guys have opinions and i have no interest in changing them but i dont want some one to come along and only see one side of the story

I've never understood the EFI opinion tbh. Everyone I've spoken to is happy with the work and speaking to whitey before the Baskins meet and at the SAU dyno etc he comes across as a nice guy who knows what he's talking about. Vouches from Dan, Noel, Anna n Andy etc says a lot about the work they do.

and principle, absolutely.

stubbornness FTW

:ninja:

I forget, what did EFI do on your car? And who's bashing them? We already said it's not bashing, it's opinion gathering.

ahhhhh I forgot you couldn't crash when driving in a straight line!

and four lanes means that if you do crash, you can't possibly kill an innocent person in the wrong place at the wrong time.

That logic is similar to "It's ok if I drive drunk... I don't have far to go"

I understand this and agree but I am in no position to critisise how anybody else drives on the road whether it is illegal etc since I have a pretty horrendous driving record. Although I can justify each situation n fine and will argue the point I was putting nobody in danger but myself it's still dangerous and it's still illegal.

M1 on my way home the other night (middle of the night)... saw at least 70 other cars... just on the inbound side

Springbrook the other week (middle of the night)... saw....... Colin

As I said still dangerous n illegal but I couldn't care less if other people want to race down the M1. Their choice.

I'm not basing my opinion on just that night

So I hear

I have box for them ;)

I'd guess yes, but its just a guess

IMO, that does not make it ANY way better

They ALL behaved like idiots (not just talking about skids)

mercury, now theres a shop I WILL happily bash

+1

+1

Well said

The main issue I had with all the EFI crew when they came to baskins is they didn't come over n introduce themselves or talk to anyone else bar their own little group. It annoyed me and I spose it goes both ways but still...

I'm dissapointed in you brandon

+1

Tell him to show his dirty mexican face at baskins

+1 for the dirty mexican lol

Fairly sure that's a stab at John and I. Leisurely drive through the mountains at 3am in the morning but still I won't defend it I know it's wrong but I won't stop doing it. Well after Sunday I will...for awhile :)

Sounds to me like hes defending them :down:

Nah definetely not defending us lol :P N don't give me the thumbs down you were there to!

Heres how I see it: I will happily go for a spirited drive through the mountains. This can involve breaking the law, but its a stupid law that doesn't help anyone (ie stupidly low speed limits). I do it for the enjoyment of the drive, and always follow 1 rule: 7 tenths. Stick to your lane, stick to your limits, enjoy yourself. ANY form of street racing, whethere its initial D style through the mountains, or 2F2F city racing, or hektik high speed M1 runs, is DANGEROUS. Its a race, so theres no 7/10ths: its all out. Thats human nature - we want to win. So theres no margin for error, and when it goes wrong its going to go horribly wrong. This type of driving is ALWAYS dangerous, and should not be done anywhere near the street. The people who say its not their business how someone else drives, wait till that someone else kills someone you love being a d1ckhead. This is what racetracks are for. We have 2 great ones in SE QLD, it doesnt cost that much, and you can go all out and know that worst case the only people going to suffer are yourself, and other people who HAVE WILLINGLY CHOSEN to be in the same situation. At QR you can go at 11 tenths and when you f*ck up, most likely the car will come out unscathed and you can have a good laugh at it. If brown stains on your pants are more your style, give lakeside a go.

Same applies to street drifting. Drifting is great fun, but the nature of it is that it is controlled unstability: Its just not safe to do it on the street where you could lose it at any time. Do it on the track.

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
