Morning peoples,

I was washing my car at Weston Carlovers at about 2pm (saw the guy who drives the yellow R34 with NISSAN plates)

While I was washing my car a Ford Escape (blueish/purple) pulled up behind me and start constantly honking their horn while I was in the middle of washing my car. They had done this about 10 times in 5 minutes, when I ws about to leave they did it again. I snapped and had enough of this crap, I was their with my mum and my sister, who also were quite pissed with what these 2 guys were doing.

I got out and confronted one of the guys who was just about to put money in the car to start washing the car, he was a dick*ead, running his mouth off.

It turned into a very heated exchange where the guy was thearting to headbutt me, so that was that, I got on my phone and called one of my friends who frequents the weston skate park, I told him the situation and he can up with 10 of his skater mates.

Only problem by time they arrived the 2 guys had finished washing their car and had left. Pitty pitty I really really wanted to hurt them because they were so arrogant.

My main concern is that this is the start of road rage where people are being inconsiderate towards other, I had done nothing to this person) they arrived about 3 minutes after me) nor had I ever seen them before, they were just being prats.

Unfortunately, they are going to walk away from this laughing just as they did at the car wash. I think the only way these sort of people will ever learn is to have their heads beaten in, but that is just me.

I didn't get any plates.

I just had to rant about it to someone, somewhere..

Just FYI i know this site does not condone fighting/violence ect ect.

Hahaha, if someone was honking their horn at me while I was washing the car, I'd give the car a really good slow wash. I'd even wash it two or three times just for the hell of it.

Might even go to the change machine and make it look like it took my money and spend 10 minutes talking to the fella there to so it looks like I'm trying to get the money out of it..

I wouldn't have bothered about talking to the fools, just make them wait longer :)

"My main concern is that this is the start of road rage where people are being inconsiderate towards other, I had done nothing to this person) they arrived about 3 minutes after me) nor had I ever seen them before, they were just being prats."

...Interesting comment about rage rage seeing as YOUR the one that started the verbal abuse, and YOUR the one that called up your mates to physically harm the horn blowers, thus you would be the one with the charge not the horn blowers.

And your comment about 'not getting plates'? Who cares, they pressed their horn, on private property. whoopy doo, I wouldnt call it road rage, id call it stupidity. If anyone is the 'road rage[r]' its you.

i disagree, and i dont think its really road rage anyway, it had nothing to do with your cars at all, the dudes were just being c*cks, ur driving didnt cause him to get angry, sure he used his car to sound his horn but road rage isnt the case here, not that it matters im kinda splitting hairs.

but im with Jay, just take ur time and just give him the odd deathstare and really slow down, that'd piss me off.

That's true and I can see how it comes across, in my defence I wasn't the one who threatened to get physical. I went up to him and asked their problem was and why they were honking the horn all the time. Then he said do you want me to punch you in the head, i'll headbutt you mate, things like that.

The reason I call ed my friend , not that I need ot justify it to anyone.....2 v 1 = bad odds for me 12 v 2 is much more persuasive. The main aim I had was to ridicule them and taunt them and get them to apoligise infront of everyone that would have been enough for me.

Not having got that I would love to know what their plates were and find their car or house anything they own and damage it. Revenge is the best medicine.

I don't go around looking for trouble and I don't go around damaging other people property. Infact I keep to myself because I know if you confront it, then trouble is nearly the only outcome. They deserved it and didn't get it. It's in the past and i'll move on.....

man you gotta grow up a bit. The whole 'i got more mates than you, so shut up' is crap. Who does he need to apologise to? you? Who did you need to prove your manhood to? Your mum sitting in the car, im sure she wouldve been just as proud if you got into your car, shook your head at their stupidity and drove off. But no, you potentially couldve harmed them because you felt you lost face at the car wash.

People like the ones hooting at you do it for the attention, and you gave them that. Drive off next time, and who do they have to shit stir now? no one. Who wins? you.

I wash my car at Weston Carlovers all the time, never had any trouble with idiots there, except once when someone was pulling out (VN Commodore, big surprise), stopped at the exit & started to smoke his tyres big time. This was around 1pm on a Saturday, the place was packed with peopled washing their cars. He prolly sat there for 30 or 40 seconds smoking it up, and then crawled off.

I'll keep an eye out for that escape though, seems like a geuine gimp to me

Such a big man... Calling up 11 mates to come and fight 2 guys... Did you feel big and strong after making that call? I bet your pen1s grew about 4 inches after doing that.

You claim that 2v1 wasn't a fair fight, so you tried to make it 2vs12... HOW THE HELL IS THAT FAIR??? :uhh: :uhh: :uhh:

I hate it when people can't fight their own fights and have to call their cousins, friends and relatives to come fight their fights for them. It's quite honestly pathetic.

Your story was looking good until you lowered yourself to the gutter with that phone call. :)

This is a mature way to look things.

I respect your point of view. I haven't had the best weekend, on firday (start of the weekend just gone) I found 2 boot prints on my bonnet, I can tell you I wasn't very happy, luckily it didn't dent the bonnet, looks like someone was bonnet surfing (running/hopping across several bonnets)

It is very fustrating that nobody seems to respect other people or their property. I didn't need ot prove my manhood as you put it, as I had said i confronted them to find out why they were being rude and hoonking the horn, the other guy was the one who narcked up threatened to be violent.

Im there heaps too, surprised weve never bumped into each other

Ive never had an trouble from anyone there, had a few people say g'day n have a chat, and a couple of stares from people behind me cos i take too long :headspin:

I agree with most people here...

get over it, best thing would of been to take your time, and show them that you aint really botherd about there stupidity... And there not seeking any attention...

getting there number plate to damege there house or car!!!!

There are alot of posts and replies in these forums about people damaging our cars....

Why would you wanna be one of these people that damage the cars...??!!!

Just because of some dickheads, your putting yourself i the shit!

Just get back in the car, shake your head and drive off.... Thats the best advice given here!

12v2 Pretty ****ed if you ask me!

Fight your own fights... if you cant... WALK AWAY!!!

I agree that the people may not have been very nice. Sure, they should not have honked. But i bet that you were not very nice when you approached them either. I would have simply just never approached them. Like it has been said above, are you trying to prove that you're tough to your mum? i hope your mum told you off after you did that, or else, the saying would be like father(mother) like son.

I'd say that it's your fault for aggrevating the situation. You are also a *****. "Oh, i can't fight two people. Lets be a pansy and get 10 people." If anyone has a short temper, it's you. "Oh, someone beeped me, i'm gonna call in my gang and bash them". Furthermore, "since i didn't get to bash them, i wanted to get there number plate. Lets go find there house and smash it and burn there car". Ok, you might have had a bad day, that's granted. Can you go kill someone because you had a bad day?

Stop trying to justify yourself. YOU'RE WRONG. Learn from your mistake, and you'll become a better person. Patience is a virtue.

    • So been ocd with timing mark but checked from few angle and seems both cam are on and crank is matching as well to the slot on sump and crank pully   i noticed crankshaft cover has been robbed as per attached pic. Any ideas why? Could my balancer or harmonic be on its way out? should I replace the cover? https://ibb.co/ZR1JFYRR
    • So now doing the change and first time dealing with rb so little nervous giving engine power and potential for screwing it up When you align all marks and then remove crank bolt, timing move little I assume you can put the bolt back in once you have removed the pully to get timing to where you want?   here is pic of my both intake and exchust cam aligned, depending on angle you look they seem to be either aligned or a half tooth or so out. Any thoughts? Should you angle your face and look at each mark that way as if looking straight rather than from above as it can be misleading   <a href="https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/HfWrGR9b/IMG-4447.jpg" alt="IMG-4447" border="0"></a> <a href="https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/JWBqWwr1/IMG-4445.jpg" alt="IMG-4445" border="0"></a>   https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
    • Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
    • Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..
