    When Other People Turn Right From The Left Lane....

    in New South Wales

    Posted

    Dude didnt see the thread till now..

    It only happened yesterday arvo, it was actually the first time I drove my car to work in over 8 weeks. I was waiting most of that time for Nengun to send me my new fuel pump. lol

    Insurance will pay for everything, so its all good. The assessor actually ummed and ahhhed about writing it off, saying they're not worth much nowadays, etc... I convinced him to fork out for the ~$8k bill though.

    And... I am so over the moon. Honestly, all the acts of violence that run through my head when I think of the car are banished by the thoughts of a little baby on the way :P

    Thanks for all the suggestions guys!

    After quotes and an insurance assessment, the car is going to Hume Smash Repairs @ Lansvale. I'm really happy with them and the work they had there. All top quality and a bunch of Skylines and other high performance imports.

    I'm getting all the parts brand new so nothing will be bogged up, now I just have to wait as I'm pretty sure they are all ex-japan :rofl:

    On my way to meet my wife at the hospital for our baby ultrasound (girl by the way!), I had the unfortunate displeasure of having my car rammed by an idiot.

    This lovely individual was stationary in the left lane, about 50 meters up the road from me, with their right indicator on. As I approached in the right lane I wondered what they were doing, so I slowed down, guessing they were not quite sure themselves. After I decided no action was going to take place I maintained my speed and continued in my lane.

    Of course... this person was planning to turn into a lane way on the right side of the road. And given there were no other cars in the area they were apparently just waiting for another car to get in their way before doing so.

    Below are the results;

    Now, time to get some quotes.

    Reccomendations for a good repairer around Guildford/Parramatta/Smithfield/etc...??

    Airbox Vs Airbox Without Lid

    It looks like you would have to modify the bonnet a little bit by cutting some of the front of the bonnet frame out (which might be illegal) so that you could fit a decent snorkel in between the bonnet and the radiator support bar, which would then connect up to the air intake mouth in the grill.

    I'm not too concerned with the intake being in the grill, just that it is larger than stock and integrated into the lid.

    The one pictured is actually available with a shorter intake that places it in the stock position. Which would be more what 33 owner would be after.
