Sunday Aug 5 15:51 AEST Another street race just a kilometre from the site of a crash in which a couple were killed has prompted a call by NSW's top cop for tougher action against hoons. Commissioner Ken Moroney was incredulous after police charged a disqualified driver and a P-plater over an alleged street race in St Marys early on Sunday morning. A 17-year-old boy from Kingswood and 21-year-old Abdul El-Lawn, from Busby, were arrested after police observed them allegedly racing side-by-side on the Great Western Highway at 3.40am (AEST). Mr Moroney said the message of responsible driving campaigns did not seem to be getting through to car hoons, who needed to take greater personal responsibility for their "moronic" behaviour. advertisement He said more extreme measures might be needed to stamp out illegal street racing. "You have to question whether, as in the case of the United States, the solution to this problem is in part the compacting of vehicles into a cube dropped on the front lawn of their homes," Mr Moroney told reporters. "Maybe that's the message that they've got to understand." NSW Police Minister David Campbell did not rule out Mr Moroney's suggestion. "It's something that could be looked at," he told Southern Cross Broadcasting. In Sunday's incident, the 17-year-old was driving a Toyota Camry with two 16-year-old passengers while the 21-year-old, already disqualified from driving until 2010, was driving a Daihatsu Charade, police said. Their cars were confiscated once they were questioned at Penrith Police Station. The 21-year-old was charged with taking part in a vehicle race, driving while disqualified and providing false details. He was refused bail and will appear in Parramatta Bail Court on Sunday afternoon. The 17-year-old youth was charged with taking part in a vehicle race, and not complying with vehicle passenger restrictions. He was granted bail to appear at Penrith Local Court on 27 August. The incident occurred just a kilometre from the site of the crash in which Alan and Judith Howle were killed when their car was hit as two Expensive Daewoo Commodores allegedly raced side-by-side down the Great Western Highway at St Marys on July 29. Mr Howle, 71, was killed instantly while Mrs Howle, 70, died before she could be rescued from the wreck. One of the men allegedly responsible for the deaths, Robert James Borkowski, 37, of Claremont Meadows, has been refused bail on charges relating to the smash. Police have yet to charge a second man allegedly involved in the incident.

The only reason I want an M3 is for the steering wheel paddles. lol... Bring it on I say...

Just furthering on beauies comments. It would be a lot safer to have the airline attached to a regulator so you don't blow the actuator diaphram to pieces. Then you can also test the accuracy of your actuator spring... Cheers Trent

That looks very classy MiKa. Is there an option for a deeper dish for the back???

Dont blame the tyres RAP1D. You're just a of a driver...

Awesome time G. Great drivin too... Is that DBOSS on the left side of the vid??????

I was thinking of going for a squiz, but its soooo bloody cold...

It all depends on whether you want to hear how good someone thinks they are, or whether you want the proof to be put on the road... GO TO C & V

I agree. It could be one of our kids tomorrow. You just never know.

I think it looks sensational... I just hope they go as well as they look and dont weigh an extra 300kg's...

For the NSW guys, im thinking the hill leading down to Mooney Mooney bridge...

Rap1d got owned...

Rap1d, you're getting married in a couple of months! You shouldn't be thinking about porn now... Not for at least a few months!!!!

Yeah yeah. I was waiting for someone to have a shot. Its not for me Rap1d

If someone has some time. Can they photoshop these wheels on for me please.

that's going a little bit overboard!!!

Speaking from experience power! That debris is sump, block and a large peice of piston skirt. When you get under, it will look a little like this...

Far out that this cheap... I was at pickles a few weeks back. And a stock standard BA T went through with a blown turbo for $21,000. What a bargain for $17,000

Far out. that's a little too close to home. Sorry to hear about your loss mate. Will definately keep my ear to the ground for any info for ya...

A place called MTQ is where I got mine. Or you could go direct to Garrett. Just check the whitepages for outlets. I think retail for the 15psi actuator is around $140.00 - $160.00. Well worth the money...

And jack up our insurance premiums

Definately, go the staffy. These two are extremely hearty and love kids. And they are spoilt rotton.

The only way to properly check to see if the injectors are in fact causing your poor fuel economy is to have them flow tested and the spray pattern examined. As previously stated, this has to be done whilst out of the car. If your gonna go to that trouble, I'd be getting them cleaned anyway seeing that they are already out. My personal recommendation for my customers was to have this done around 100,00km reagardless, seeing that its a more major type of service and most times including a timing belt etc... Generally the feedback was an immediate power increase and fuel economy improvements. In saying that, it only takes a small amount of debris to pass through the fuel filter and it will clog an injector and that can happen at any time. Cheers Flashxr

I hope he's gonna wear ear muffs. The first time he loads that thing up, he'll be deaf otherwise.

Sorry Deek But your not correct on this one. My car use to do it until recently, until I had the car retuned. I mentioned it to my tuner and he new all about the problem. He ticked a box, and now it works perfectly... cheers
