I know this a Skyline/cage sight but...... :mad:

(Joe, you'd be aware of this off the PSB site)

This Monday (24-05-04) Today Tonight are running a story on motorbike 'hoons'. They downloaded footage off the Perth Extreme site and intend to air it with 'expert' opinion being given by some wankers. Quotes include "They are loaded weapons ready to go off" "menaces to society" etc. You get the idea anyway.

As much as this won't interest you guys in the point of it's about motorbikes, the ramifications of this could be far reaching. SAUWA is a close group with high powered vehicles that enjoying pushing their cars to the limits, you know, driftin and stuff.

Who knows, the next story could be on SAUWA, probably unlikely but hey, it's a possibilty and this probably a bit of a warning that the sensationalising journos really don't care about the positives of group events but only focus on negatives.

Anyhows that's my 2 cents worth.

Have fun all :)

This will blow up in the car scene again when the SPR dvd/video is released. If your cars in any of the illegal footage they have i'd be asking for it to be removed.

The police use it as evidence to charge you with whatever you were doin wrong. hopefully in these scenes the SPR ppl were smart enough to bler number plates

it does go to show though that TT is real short on decent stories. Naturally the footage they show will be very selective as most of the stuff was done on dead end back roads.

It will be interesting viewing that's for sure, what they won't say is that most of theses guys are race riders, the group organises track days and workshops to improve skills.

exactly, we all fall under into the same group

anything happening to bikes we should take as much notice of since, as said, it's 'broad' enough to encompass imports

Sorry guys, I don't agree! While I do apprechiate the notice and interset in wellbeing of our club and drivers. I have been to some fast and respected cruises with selected participants. We all have fun but how we behave, as a club should not be mentioned.

There are those of us that appreciate an art of owning a Skyline. Hence SAUWA!!!

I love my ride; I respect the club rules and do not accept a term "Perth Extreme".

So don't affiliate us with statements like those, as there are others that read stuff on these forums. It is harmful. Again it comes to the language used.

So lets be mindful of such comments. I respect bike riders but dare I say that when you go for a bike licence you are told to ride defensively. Not aggressively mad. There is a cult to this image of patriots. I.e. An art of speed. Movies such as Gt40 run through Paris streets, the Z350 in Prag City .... Getaway_in_stockholm.mov do a search on the net guys.....driven by professionals and recorded on the pro equipment.....I say not armatures. Not everybody knows how to drive/ride. I don't have to say no more.

By saying this you've just said we break the law on cruises with "selected participants"...

?? Perth Extreme is not a term - it's a bike club man..

I respect bike riders but dare I say that when you go for a bike licence you are told to ride defensively. Not aggressively mad.

Again.. ?? you've just taken the same view as the public on modd'ed cars - a nice generalisation there..

I'm trying to work out what you're actually trying to say here Sexila...

Cam just trying to say and look at the quote ...from PSIKO....That just saying the things like that make you look like the oldies want you to, dangerous speed freaks.......

Lets be diplomatic about all this, and what is this "WE" business? hheehhe :)

Lets not attach adjectives to other people as we are not all the same...

This is a fight I can't win I know, its the same discussion I had with few insurance people.

Try telling someone you are calm and respestfull of others when you are driwin an inport.

There is a saying "You are who you are with" And that is missleading isn't it.

Again I say lets use smart language. Iknow you ride a bike Cam and drive Skyline but that doesn't make you a Mad Max does it?

Lets not advertise it!

Sorry if I have offended any bike riders ..... :)

    • Interesting.  Great info. thank you.  Give a few days to get that name plate.  I have a busy life most weeks.  I will be in touch.
    • Strange your posting about this being an issue. Move the harness or change your wheels or run more camber etc. Have the thing not touch the thing so it doesn't destroy the thing.  Short answer, no. Slightly longer answer, the factory fuel gauge is measuring resistance. You need to wire in the FPG fuel level sender into the original factory fuel level sender wiring.  I drew you a picture to explain this one The factory strainer is quite long, reaching down into the bottom of the tank. Safe bet your aftermarket fuel pump has a little baby sized strainer that probably doesn't even point down towards the bottom of the thank.  Solution, move the pump lower down in the tank, or fit a longer strainer, or do both. I did both, I've run my tank down to 5L remaining and the car still drove fine.   
    • S2/3 GT-R is the same as S2 GTS-t The SRS airbags module in under the centre console. The S1/S1.5 GTS-t and S1 GT-R had the module built into the steering wheel. FWIW, I have a S3 GT-R wheel in my S2 GTS-t shit box. Same airbag plug, airbag light goes on then off, meaning all systems are go. S3 GT-R has red stitching, that's about it.
    • Dumb question, but why would it matter if the wheel came off a car with hicas or not?
    • Hey to anyone that reads this, long time lurker first time posting, sorry if it’s been answered before but I’ve been looking for nearly a year now for answers. ive got a 25det neo in an r32 that works awesome when it works (made 500whp on 21psi) but works 45% of the time, 1st issue there’s a harness that runs under the passengers side front fender that my tire keeps rubbing through and one wire seems to power the fuel pump even though I’ve done the relay “mod” some people like to call it, and when it does rub through it kills the car, yes next time I’m with the car I want to take the fender off and try tuck the harness well out of the way but I’d also like to try and by pass this mysterious wire as well lol, also wouldn’t mind getting power from the alternator as I’ve read it supplies the pump with 13v ? But no idea where to run the power wire too. 2nd issue, when replacing my fuel pump and fuel hanger I managed to break the factory fuel level sender leaving me with no fuel gauge, I’d like to buy the fpg fuel level sender for r32/s13 but the plug it comes with confuses me, I’ve got a detschwerks x1 fuel hanger which has light + pump - level + pump + and a ground, I’m no auto sparky but I’m wondering if I can cut the plug off the fuel level sender and wire the negative to the pump negative and wire the positive to the level positive to get a fuel gauge back ?🥴 3rd and final issue, the reason I want a fuel gauge is because whenever it’s below half a tank, it fuel starves like crazy and runs like a bag of shit even without doing a pull or sloshing the fuel round in the tank, I’d also like to fix this but have no idea what’s causing it, I’ve got a dw420 and a dead head fuel setup meaning the fuel is regulated before it gets to the engine, my only theory is that the return line is to close to the pickup on the pump and when it’s at half a tank the return line is causing the pump to cavitate enough to cause fuel pressure issues, that or the pump isn’t low enough in the tank which I would find strange considering I can’t find a single thing online about it, also if ya wondering how I figured out it happens at half a tank without a fuel gauge, I waited until it started happening and went and filled up and the car took exactly 30 litres every time I tested it, if ya managed to read through this mess I appreciate that and any recommendations , cheers
