I have never hit anything but years ago when i was doing work exp, walking home on rooty hill RD NTH some cop cars went flying past with sirens on, and bad luck for the old guy next door to me, he was walking his rotty in the park. Once it heard the sirens it took off and run under the front wheel of the cop car doing about 70-80, as the cop braked the dog got stuck under the front guard. He asked me to help him pull it out, so i did, then he took out his gun and shot it in the head. He then left to go to the robbery and left me there to explain what happened to next doors dog. The cops came back eventually.

hit a pigeon.. it bounced off the windscreen and left alot of feathers and then kept flying..

hot a poussum in the skyline.. the bloody thing ran out from under a car right under the wheel i didnt know wat the f**k it was.... this thing was the size of a small dog and was taking its last breaths on the footpath when i had a look for it...

felt so bad..

also saw 2 dogs get hit by one car after i nearly hit them coming the other way... one dog got hit in the back legs and ended up in the lane next to where it was hit yelping an shit..

the other dog got hit in the frontlegs, and head and ended up flying across 2 lanes and ending up in the bushes on the other side of the road..

pretty shocking thing to see

this thread is getting a bit ordinary. I've never killed anything bigger than an insect with my car. I have however lost two dogs, one hit by a car and left to die on the side of the road, an one backed over by a truck outside my house. not very nice when it happens to your pets. I've also been hit by cars myself (some whilst walking, some on push bike) a few times. mostly my fault though.

My mum's a wildlife carer and she's hit more stuff than me!

Best kill was the four baby birds she stood on and killed by accident

gee..talk about a big footprint :(

ha I was up in queensland with some mates a few weeks ago and I was driving, saw this thing in the middle of the road, crawling sooo slowly....makes it rather easy to avoid it. Turtle.

    • If I had "perfect R33 GTR" kinda money I would have bought one of the crazy expensive low mileage HJA cars, but I am sadly not that wealthy. I already picked this car out of various Skylines for sale locally, most of which were worse in some way. Only a few cars were actually better but also more expensive. In terms of buying a motor locally, I at least have the option to inspect it myself and juding the seller as a person, and used or freshly rebuilt engines that some people sell are actually ok price-wise. I knew the car was going to require work, but shit piled up real fast and I haven't even driven 1000km yet as the turbo started oiling like a bitch within a few weeks after I got the car.   I assume it wasn't actually me who cracked it, though there is no way to know when that crack formed and if the previous owner even knew it was there. Buying another 05U Block can be a gamble, yeah, but the cheapest PRP cast block is like twice or more money-wise, and billet is 3 or 3 times as much. For now I am most likely just keeping the current engine, as a rebuild or engine swap isn't happening right now. But I am seriously considering buying a second engine and selling mine in return. Might be a sweet deal at the end.
    • Hi all. I need some help buying the correct size banjo bolts for my 2860 turbos. Because whoever installed them tore up the original part, I ordered new ones of this kind, because I just figured these were the most leak-resistant option as I already had trouble with a shitty braided line. I need to know the thread size of the smaller left hole, that is the turbo oil feed connection. I found out so far that the turbo oil inlet apparently has a 7/16"-24 thread, but I cannot find any listing or description of the thread size on this line. I do not have the original bolts. I tried using the bolts that were in the turbos (the ones that were mounted with the shitty braided line) but they sit very loosely so they can't be the right thread. Means either these bolts are the wrong ones (how do they fit the turbo then? no clue) or the wraparound-lines have a different thread than the turbo oil feed itself. Help is appreciated, asking Nissan directly is obviously not going to work.
    • EDIT: PSA to whoever stumbles upon this thread. It is in fact a crack in the block that caused this concern. Just letting you know. In my case, a few cm long hairline crack going horizontally above the turbo oil feed. Classic RB shit I guess
    • Might as well pop in some cams, head gasket, head studs, and a flex sensor. Full send.
