Well done to all Skyliners.

Just finished watching the Channel 7 current affairs program on "Hoon Raids" in Melbourne (I think) and either your all very socially conscious people down there and don't get involved in that sort of rubbish or you were just too quick for the law enforcement people. I prefer to think it was the former rather than the latter. Anyway it was all good to see no Skylines involved in the report. Plenty of Australia's finest sedans caught out there though.

Not even a mention of a high performance imported vehicle. I am impressed.

:D

Good thing cops cleanup this hoon gang. It's about time those hoons brought to justice, they're the one who gives performance car owners a bad name. As I've seen no Skylines were seen involved in such low activity, hopefully it'll be a good thing for our club. Just a bunch of commodores and some old school modified cars. What I can't think of is the sanity of those driver who did doughnuts and almost ran into the crowd.... WTF they must have an intelligence at a milestone when amoeba are at the brink of evolution into apes....

Just watched this on today tonight in adelaide...

I can see the attraction to this type of activity, being a P plater once. But we still never did anything to that size, with that amount of people around.........damn, there was a s**t load of people around!

Some of those younger people need to realise they need to go to legal places to drive like that.

In adelaide, we have legal street drags, drift comps, and even burnout comps, save it for then seems like a good idea, when you're facing hard time! Not sure about melbourne. I would've thought they'd have places like that available.

Should stir the circles a bit, no doubt.

Interesting though, we (society) still haven't cottoned on that education is a far greater deterrent than all out punishment or is that the only form of "education" the law makers in society understand. I do not condone nor support the activities shown on that program and heartily agree with steve_R32 that this sort of thing should only occur at the appropriate time and place. Just amuses me that currently the only answer to this sort of activity is to levy massive fines, jail terms etc. Almost like electric shock treatment in a way.

Cheers

What do you suggest the police do muz...

Give them lollypops, sit them down, and make them watch brum :bahaha:

Nah mate, take em behind the station and give em a good flogging. Now that's what I would call getting a valuable education.

Seriously, not quite sure but all the fines etc don't appear to be working does it. Vic is probably the most regulated state in Oz (only just beats NSW) and they still have the highest road toll in Australia so I really don't know what the answer is. Maybe the thumping behind the station IS the answer.

This government like most has no phuqqin' idea.

I don't know what it takes to stop people from making arses of themselves at street meets like this.

But the cops seems to think this is the way and we're back to the same thing six months from now.

They wanna control male hooliganism. Have we ever been able to control this? Surely they were doing this in the 50s, 60s, 70s.

Someone said they should hold a televised 'heli' event in Telstra stadium or Optus Oval etc.

And shut the doors and gas the bastards like it's 1944 :D

Yeah baby!

To take total control is to fit all cars with speed limiter that conforms with each road's speed limit, and after certain hours (during hoons hours) all cars cannot travel more than 40km/h and no way to conduct a wheelspin because a mandatory traction control is also fitted.

A random safety inspection is done everyday and anyone caught removing those mandatory speed limiter and traction control will be faced with DEATH PENALTY conducted on site.

Learner's driving courses would include a brainwash session where "hoons are loosers" ideality are planted into their brain. All existing drivers license holder would also need to take this brainwash session, and brainwash has to be re-inforced on annual basis. Failure to attend brainwash session also incur in DEATH PENALTY.

I'm afraid this is the only way to gain total control of hooliganism.

i was just thinking, its the government's strategy to let hooning happen so that it gives coppers things to do and to justify their existence. its also like speed cameras: revenue raising! so no hoons means no revenue and means no cash flows for them F***wits who think they own the country and run it in spasmodic ways!

the government are all halfwits, they need good lashings and should only be paid out $100 a wk after their ($100000+ a yr) retirement from paliarmentary! fuggin blood sucking flesh eating khunts....... sorry got carried away but this society is almost becoming a communist society where the government controls everything! maybe its time to vote "green or democratic etc......" as the election is coming up.

      Oof, I will forevermore have those shredded gears in mind whenever someone talks about showing mechanical sympathy towards their car. Thanks for the photos, fascinating stuff!

      The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...

      Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.

      I don't believe I posted pictures of the second oil pump pickup I added so here they are. Data shows it gets oil pressure up to the relief pressure much earlier in the RPM. Is that important? Not likely... This was just another attempt to fix the bearing issues.   I also heavily opened up the inlet to the pump since it now had to flow oil from two pickups. I believe the diameter increased about 1/8".
