i am SOOO pissed!

5 days after i get my r33 some stupid bitch pulls out right infront of my from a shop's driveway and when she sees my stops right infront of me!!!

i sorta paniced not wanting to stuff up my car and i pushed the brakes too hard and locked the bastards (grrr i always said to myself i wouldnt do that!!) if only i didnt lock em up i would have stopped in time!!

now my front bar is F***ED and i bet the bitch wont pay up for a new 1!!!

iv got no insurance company to fight for my money!

DAMMIT!:):mad: :mad: :shake:

f**k ! Damn man that's gotta suck. Now all you haters see exactly why my Sky is sitting preetty in my garage until it's insured !!! ;)

How wrecked are we talking though ? Like a new front bar will fix her up ? Checked your FMIC (did you have an FMIC ?) ? Most times you'll find theres a lot more structural damage also than meets the eye, ask a few here bout simple rear enders (I think Prank has had one of the car type, ask Birty for anything else) ...

Technically who's fault is it ? Was she on the road by the time you hit her ? eg Rear Ender on your part ?

ouch, that gotta suck ugene. i don't want to sound like a bi**h but i told you to be careful.

hope you didn't tell her you got no insurance. you should play it cool like you'd rather go private so she doesn't pay excess and try to get money out of her.

got witnesses?

haha thanx george...;)

k ... here goes..

i was on a staight road. just redlined 1st (not on purpose) so i was doin about 60-70K's in a 50 zone..

she was coming out of the drivway at the shops..

there was cars parked on the side of the road..

so she had to creep forward too see if there was any oncoming traffic...there was..ME!..

by the time she saw me the front of her car had taken up more than 3/4 of my lane..

when she saw me she totally froze.

i saw her and straight away was like shit! i totally thought she was going to gun it and make the turn coz she was so far out ...

i braked suddenly and when i saw she didnt move i sorta paniced and braked more.. thats when the brakes locked up..

and i slid right into her.. and hit her drivers side just infront of the door...

i wasnt goin fast by the time i hit her .. her car had s**t all dammage.. but ofcourse the fibre glass kit just craked ..

the front bar is damaged on the driver side just under the healight.. and i cracked my blinker.. i am HOPING its only the bar that is damaged and nothing structural!!

if i had known she was just gonne sit there i could have easily gone on the other side of the road around her...

but i didnt coz i thought she was gonna make the turn..

there was heaps of witnesses .. some recon it was my fault for speeding, some say it was hers for being in my lane...

she recons that it was both of our falts (me for speeding and her for being out too far)

she said that she had to go through her insurance company and would call me the next day (she still hasnt .. she was supposed to call tues)

i did go straight to the cops but they said if no cars had to be towed and there was no 1 hurt it was a civil matter and they had nothing to do with it..

im gonna ring her tomorrow and see whats up..

and yes she is blond.. approx in her late 30's-40's nad yeh i did get all her details except i forgot to get her insurance company name..

im thinking since its prob gonna cost a shit load to fix the fibre glass and buy a blinker.. i might as well get a gtr bar fitted..

but yeh im definatly gonna be more careful!!

Your lucky they'll have to go off facts. No-one can prove you were speeding, none of the witnesses can tell by sight how fast a vehicle is travelling .... but one thing they can all tell is who had right of way.

Her bad, hope it all gets fixed up for ya !

umm, there are always the skidmarks.

ugene, better get scrubbing. get rid of that eveidence:(

j/k but yeah, they can prove if you were speeding from skid marks. no one was hurt or anything so i don't think there will be this huge investigation. face the fact that it was partly your fault and go halves in repair bill unless she is going through insurance like you said, and she admits fault.

ouch

but it sounds like its not your fault even if you were speeding she pulled out in foront of you so she has to pay. she can argue that you were speeding and you will go to court but you will win cause she pulled out infront of you... its beeen done berore but takes alot of time.

pete

if you cant afford the insurance you cant afford the car

No cops were there so they can't determine the speed, full stop. They can't go to the scene and pick a skid mark and work off that.

She stuck her head out where it wasn't supposed to be, and that's it. Chances are the insurance company will not pay out. But I reckon play a little mind game with them and that the matter futher. They know she's in the wrong, even though you were speeding.

I had this with problem before but I went through my insurance comany and it was all fixed.

In future, don't drive an uninsured car on the road. It's not worth the troubles.

    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
    • your right the maps for Australia came out in 2017 but are 2010 maps. i got the updated maps SD card put it in and it was the same. Same maps in my Brothers Nissan Patrol. 2020 i think his car is
