ill have to agree with you on this one...

hes right chris...

saying what you said before about "buying a car like this is not for driving like a grandma" <-- this is what causes death on the roads... and not just that... f**k up other peoples wellbeing due to stupidity.

Driving is pretty serious..... to alot of people its NOTHING to them.....speed.... cut through traffic.... race.... etc etc. but anything can cause harm to others.

Ive went through a phase a few years ago... took on Motorcycle riding.

i must say, learning how to ride really made me a Better driver... i learned many valuable lessons. and i really Recommend every driver on the road to take on motorcycle riding just as an experience and learn about safety.

for e.g...

*at a round about.. people just speed through... when your on a bike... i always STOP.. even for the people that are suppose to give way to me... i MAKE SURE they stop...because if someone doesnt stop?.... YOUR f**kED!!!!

yeh man i do agree to.. its not like a drag race or anything.. i dont do it everyday

it was that one off thing WHICH i did think about as it did blow my oil pump. lol

like its hard not to give it in the car you know.. i know its still dangerous but anything can happen in a for laser or something u know.?

like it dont matter the car or what speed anything can happen. i know its dangerous . i made sure no one else was there and it lasted 8 seconds.

*Blind spots... drivers never give 2 shits... but if your on a bike... and someone cuts you off and takes you out... YOUR f**kED!!!

So you make sure you dont merge lanes in someones blind spot and avoid being there all together.

*Speeding, everyone does it... but on a bike... should an animal... a kid .. a car out of a drive way jumps out onto the road.. once again... YOUR f**kED!!!!

Many close calls on a bike... even skidding nearly falling off due to wanker drivers.

so all this made me feel that on the road i was very very Vunerable.. any little thing happens.... and my life is over or even worse.. end up crippled.

Now days...driving..... it all comes natrual that i do the same as i did on the bike... to avoid all complications all together.

since you got exempted...(which is a rare case....) you should really feel privaledged and respect it

[Chris_GTR26]

Of Course to all the above.

Yes we've all done it.

But I believe there is a place and time for everything.

Midnight on Hwy, with no cars yeh maybe. But not bright daylight in 60 zones, and that applies to all speeds above.

I'm all for school Zones, it is a pet hate of mine and I purposely slam my brakes on ppl behind me tryin to speed me up.

Remember mate, SHIT HAPPENS!

You're young, you think you're unbreakable. I use to think this aswell. But I quickly grew up.

Take it to the track mate, see how your car handles in controlled conditions.

Take some skidpan courses.

Anybody can drive in a straight line, but not all people can correct a car once you lose traction at 100km/h.

And by the way, this is a public forum, Police do look through the pages. And you have a thread with pictures of your car with the number plates on.

So i'd be more wise with what you inform us with.

RJ

yep.. i agree with all of us.. there is a time and place. ill keep it to the track last thing i wanna do.. is wreck my car or hurt someone else

I don't really care what you do, you just don't get it do you. As far as I can see SAU is trying its best to distance itself from the whole 'hoon' thing. When you come on here BOASTING about doing ILLEGAL things on PUBLIC ROADS, it makes ALL of us LOOK BAD.

The other point i was making is that you are an INEXPERIENCED DRIVER. I've seen the direct aftermath of a single car crash due to loss of control at 180km/h into a palm tree, and its an absolute mess, not to mention closed casket funerals.

I don't know specific legalities, but I imagine that it looks bad if you are involved in criminal proceedings and you've posted about your exploits on a public forum.

[GTR-32U]

Man when you first said that you had a go against the Typhoon my first impression was that maybe you had a quick squirt say 0-60 or rolling to 80......But from 100 to 180 ??? Man thats seriously a dangerous habit that you really need to get out of. Get a CAMS licence and get to the track and do that sort of thing...Not that hard these days....Our streets and Highways are crap and dangerous for high speed. Imagine if a Kangaroo or Wallaby got in front of you.....Or for some reason you just had a freak Blowout......

[sneakey pete]

Exactly.

Sure, you might think "ohh, a freak blowout at 100km/h will still cause me to crash". But odds are you won't die in that crash.

Besides, you probably have an even greater advantage against the F6 on a twisty track

yeah...

did you read in the paper what happend 2 days ago?

Some girl.... whom is 16 years of age.. on her L's...

she took her 16 or 18 year old friend for a joy ride... with her grandmothers Imprezza (unsure if it was a WRX, but probably not) she excceed speeds of 90km in residetial streets... yep.... ended up on some sort of tree i think.... (not exactly a "Palm" im guessing)

killing her friend.... even though under age, she got tried at an Adult 18+ court. and may now face 10 years jail term......

that could be you chris.... or maybe even worse..this is a girl with no driving record here... since your a mechanic and got a SPECIAL permit issued to you under special circumstances from the RTA, for you.... to maintain & KEEP your JOB.............

XR6 turbo's and F6 Typhoons......

the next VL turbo's, everyonee has one, and the sad part is they are doing better than our skylines.

We pour 10K into our engines for intercoolers and ecu's and things to get it running right.

They spend 10K to get a whole package making excess of 300+RwKw lol...

From the few of my mates who have em the only main problem seems to be the gearbox so far, most of them convert o AU boxes since they are stronger, one of my mates has a 2 speed powerglide and the other a rebuilt 4 speed auto to hold all 350RwKw of his XR6 Turbo.

They are bloody quick with a good tune and since they are auto they really pull hard off the line with those stall converters....sorta jealous that they are cheap to run in comparison to a Skyline but id never leave my car! But its good to hear you gave it to the Typhoon since they have built bottom ends anyhow

But like everyone says be careful! haha im on Green P's too and got stuck with an N/A R34 just to be safe have to fully rebuild her now since im comming off Your a lucky bastard don't play with fire your lucky your getting away with it so far!

[Beelzebub89]

First On Race Day

Ford fan tbh but only the english fords. Escorts, cortinas, capris, sierra cosworth etc are all what I was brought up around.

[benkoau]

+1 for not handling very well..i go on to fullboost to look at the media section a bit and at one stage not sure if they still do but there was an f6 typhoon drift car not sure who drove it but he swerved and booted it to initiate drift and all it did was understeer into a wall couldnt stop laughing prolly just incorrect suspension setup funny though

[eeiko321]

LMFAO... haha yeh yeh man.

im quessing you like holdens then ??

well i dont really like Australian designed cars at all......

whether its Ford or Holdens..... The only decent Holden to me was the VL

But as for Fords, i dont mind the American Fords...

The Cosworth was a good car too

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]
