Damn that looks bad, how did she reverse it so hard?? :) Yeah good luck with the insurance, I hope you had her down as a driver. Good luck with getting the car & house fixed. :)

Thanx for the kind words guys. She wasnt reversing. She was turning right onto willmott dve in rockingham. (not going to fast or anything, witness has testified this) road was greasy and car hit some loose shit. Tail has comeout. She has panicked and hit the wrong pedals. Car has spun a few times and slid backwards up the persons front lawn into thier carport.

Insurance has said that they will cover it. My excess is gonna be $1400 and if it is written off i get first dibs on the wreck. All my mods are covered too which is handy.

That looks bad, Just glad everyone is Ok.

It is a sad thing to say, but cars can be replaced...... I would hate it to happen to me, but as long as everyone is safe, there will be light at the end of the tunnel.

Thank goddness for the insurance company covering it

All the best

Whoa dude!!! thats some nice bingle right there. If nobody is hurt all you can really do is sit back, scratch your head and laugh eh. Make sure u take bulk photos so you can pull em out at the wedding and make some "thick and thin" comment :( I see bully beat the fire truck there.

Hope it works out for you mate. The "its just a car" thing may not be working for you right now but look back on it in a while and you will laugh.

Maybe she needs a minor "how not to freak out while going sideways" course.

    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
