d*ckheads. They got what they deserve.

and youve never had a spirited drive down the highway or just give it a bit.....

I know that rd very very well and its 3 lanes wide down hill and a massive tunnel. Wouldnt have been racing otherwise there speeds would have been much higher...just 5 skylines having fun in a tunnel.

Regardless of their motive it wasnt the smartest thing to do putting it on utube.

I bet no. 6 is shitting blue lights knowing they are looking for him. :whistling:

They had fun and they got caught end of the story. We all know that full acceleraion in one gear in a skyline adds 50km/hr quick as so hence why i said they were having fun, def not encouraging what they did, just being realistic.

And col that hill is extremely steep my old 79 corolla could easily go from 90-110 if you didnt keep your foot on the brake the whole way down. So 140 would be achieved with about 2% throttle in a skyline on that hill. If they were really into it then you could add another 100km/hr to there speed easily.

Gonna close this guys - Sorry.

There are some greater issues going on with SA in relation to this. Don't need anymore discussion on this at the moment as there has been a big shitstorm over it for 4 weeks now. Even lead to the club cancelling some events i believe :(

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
