Just a quicky. I've been having a read of the "how to stop the changes to the 15 yr rule" thread and am considering writing a letter to the relavent ppl etc etc.

Now recently there has been alot protests on the news about all sorts (hecs, pay rates etc etc). Now i know about these issues cos everyone (namely noisy uni students with too much time on their hands) makes a real big public fuss about them. But i only know about the compliance changes because of this forum.

Has anyone thought of actually organising a protest to shed some puplicity on the subject? Or to make it a more general question, has the import scene ever taken a protest further that letters saying "Not happy Jan" over any specific issue? i dont know... maybe a park in or something.

yeah i agree about the uni students... they get on my nerves too... but thats mainly cos they get in EVERYONES way instead of just the people they are protesting against... oh and they have a funny definition of "peaceful protesting" ie peaceful means kicking in doors and occupying chancellors offices...

Now the original post wasnt a call to arms, just satisfying my curiosity, but it does strike me that letter writing, while being very polite, doesnt make people pay alot of attention, i know that as i read a letter i'd be thinking "oh you dont want us to do this... thats nice".

But then again, i dont know who is in a position of power and who gives a crap so oi wouldnt know who to complain to anyway.

that would be cool... but i'm sure some dickhead will start doin burn outs and spoiling it..... if everyone just casually drove up to the front door and parked quietly i'm sure it would get a point across

hmmm, this is sounding more and more appealing now. I'm having enough trouble as it is finding time to work and organise the GSD so if anyone wants to organise a protest i'll be up for it. i've pretty much got my car to seem stock.

    • 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.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
