  4. thanks terry
  5. the driver indicated left and came to a complete stop, then proceeded to pull out into my brothers path, sorry if i wasnt clear with that. thanks terry if things need to go further i will get in contact with him, thanks for all the help guys
  6. what kind of plenum did you use from hypertune, and how much pm me if you dont want to disclose on thread, reason i ask as i am looking at getting a plenum and chasing info and options lookf forward to the dyno and another stroked rb20 i can associate with cheers yt
  7. have you had the replacment engine compression tested, if not i would advise doing that before you put it in oitherwise you will end up at square one again. also if you are looking at doing any performance parts adding will be easy while the engine is out, to make the car a little more reliable, go nuts, dont listen to people about telling you to put in an rb25, my rb20 will give most rb25 owners a shock.
  8. thanks for the advice it is much appreciated! i read through the link and have gained alot of useful information. as per your no 1 that is what i have been trying to get out of the police but they say an incident number was recorded but no report and no charge was laid, there for the coppers did a slack arse job or rather they didnt do there job properly! as in no 2) the other car was hit at the front a pillar where the front door and front guard meet, his car was on full lock when this happened so by no way was he trying to go straight, and he was half over the double marked lines in the pictures. (assuming he was trying to do a u turn illegally) at present i am waiting to talk to the constable that arrived at the scene to get information off him and find out more about the incident report. he wont be in til tuesday next week so have to wait til then, and also will be ringing up the insurance company to confirm whether or not they have actuallly recieved the diagram and our side of the story. i believe the other driver has given a different/false state of events that have happened and that is why they are trying to be firm with my brother thinking that they can bully him into believing he is at fault.
  9. also i have got the name of the constable that was at the scene of the crime, so i will try and talk to him, trying to track down the tow truck driver who arrived at the scene also.
  10. yes i am currently looking into it. he is only third party insured and we have spoken to his insurance agency but they said he had to pay the access of $1750 if he wanted them to fight the claim. which i think is down right rediculous considering all he will get back for his car is 600 odd dollars. what i need to find out is if he will get his excess payment re emburst if he wins the claim? the facts are there, based on what i have said is there any grounds that the other guy can appeal, all it comes down to is his word against my brothers due to the lack of effort from the nsw police, all this would have been sorted in an incident report number had been filed and the other driver had been charged with neg driving, but it looks like the other driver wormed his way out of it. it states in the law that if a car has to be removed by tow truck then a person must be charged for the accident and that it can't be claimed as a P54 or P55 where they class it as dismissable because both cars are still drivable.
  11. hi i am not sure if this is the right place to place this so mods if not please move to correct place. hi guys, my younger brother 18yrs old and on green Ps is being screwed by a driver who had accident with him and his insurance company are trying to blame him for the damadges to the other driver and not pay out his written off car Incident occured 4 weeks ago on a friday morning. my brother was on his way to work as usual in the morning, he pulled up to the lights on mulgoa rd to turn right onto batt street (dick smith on the left,Mobil service station on the right) light was green car in front proceeded to turn as no traffic and light was green my brother followed. they proceeded to drive up batt street in line with the medium strip, where the driver in front indicated left arrow and proceeded to pull over to the side of the road. he came to a complete stop so my brother proceeded to drive in a straight line past the car when it abruptly pulled out from the curve and into the path of my brother that was still driving. due to the lack of time my brother was unable to react in time to avoid hitting his car completely resulting in my brother hitting the car at the front a pillar. i have attached photos of the place of incident stating where it happened and the layout. i have also attached photos of my brothers car from the damadge, my brother did not get photos at the time of incident when it occured. after the accident happend the car in front pulled away from the incident and parked on the side curb. Police came to the scene of the incident. Police officer got the details off my brother and told him that he was right to go. (i am assuming that this meant that he was going to charge the other driver who was at fault and that he didnt need to be there any more). A tow truck was there for both cars, although my brother works just around the corner so he said he would limp his car to his work and leave it there 2 streets up. The other car was deemed not safe to drive and the other driver wanted it towed. my brother got the details off the other driver and that was all. we then proceeded to contact the other driver and get his insurance claim no so my brother could get his car fixed, he delayed returning my brothers calls for 2 weeks. he also rang the police station to get a report number to verify the incident 2 times which both times he was not returned a phone call. When we got the other cars details for the insurance we were given the name of an assesor who came out and viewed the damadge of the car after we got a qoute from a repair place to say it was a write off and faxed it through to them. My brother then had a letter from the insurance company asking for more information and all his details including his insurance (at this time i believed something was sus and not right) they then sent out a letter asking for the details and a description of the event as there was a descrepency with the claim. he did as he was asked and wrote back with a diagram and the information i have told you with. Today he got a phone call from the insurance agency that left a message, this is the message: This is a message for ##### i am #### from the insurance company ###### in regards to the accident with our clients vehicle on the the 27th of august. Just touching base with you in regards to your version diagram that you are sending through and based on the information we have been provided with we are not accepting liabilities for the damages your vehicle and are actually holding you 100% at fault for overtaking a turning vehicles on a single lane carridge way [/b] "" "" "" blah blah so based on our records of the damages you are at fault. (after listening to this a few time i believe that they still dont have our diagram) here are photo's i went down and took this afternnon to give you an idea< sun was very glary so photos are not full hd quality or anything like that but you get the idea. and damadge to his car now correct me if i am wrong but how can you overtake a turning vehicle on a single lane carridgeway??? when he was turning right and there are double lines???? your thoughts? any and all advice is much appreciated and as you can see he is driving a car that he should be on his ps which prob has the power of a 1/4 of 1 hub lol
  12. awsome looking forward to the results, and good decision on the 33GTR seats, guys they retail at about $700 a set and are a fantastic upgrade not only in comfort but looks great from the camera too. some one get yourself a bargain
  13. so you didnt get fined? lucky you, where abouts did you get done?
  14. Try JSAI Autos or Just Jap
  15. be interested to see what it makes, have a similar set up and mine has 270kw on a real rich tune, if you can get a video up so we can hear the beast as well as dyno sheets torque curve should be agressive, free bump
  16. not directly related to jim berrys clutches but i understand the seriousness having been unfortunate enough to experience and exploding clutch an (exedy heavy duty cushion button) as one of your first choices (rated to 500hp) on a 2jz cressida with 250rwkw and it scared the living hell out of me, not to mention threw bolts and cracked the bell housing and the undercarridge where my foot was (left an indent in the undercarrige about 10cm any more and it would have come through the floor) and to add to it exedy took now claim to it being at fault as they had never had a problem with one of those clutches so bought another one and my mechanic repaired the damadge installed the same clutch again and on the test drive just after it had all be put back together did the exact same thing only worse. so in my opinion i would stay away from the cushion button. at least they took notice to a fault when it happened the second time, hopefully rectified now
  17. post up in the wanted section, might get a better result
  18. hey terry, i am not sure if my car will be out of the mechanics by then or not, is it possible if so to just come along for the cruise? dont want to stuff you around with holding tickets or anything? cheers yt
  19. i have an rb20 with a rb25 gear box and a r32 hks clutch works a treat tough as nails bites hard, prob not the best daily driving clutch though (just food for thought) but great if you want to punish the car
  20. possible acceptances for exemption for what i have heard are: if you parents bought the car pre date of law coming in and you would have to sell to buy another car if it is the family car and there is no other car for you to drive if you are a mechanic and work in a high performance workshop and need to drive customer cars that are turbo all exeptions have there own personal rules, mate of mine is only allowed to drive them in business hours and too and from work (see above italics) as always though it depends on the individual and there needs, i wouldnt advise on just bluffing an exemption form because not only would it be a waste of your time but other peoples time as well. fine for driving a high peformance car on your ps and getting caught is 7 points (automatic loss of licence for a p plater) and a $400 odd dollare fine - not worth it be smart drive a run around until you can legally drive one and it will save you hassles in the long run, plus be cheaper on fuel too
  21. not to worry good prices and good parts means both parties are happy if only it was like this in every thread lol.. so me and who else missed out on the plenum, any one got one they want to sell? lol
