Fallen victim to the cripling Nissan Stageas out there.

Flat bed truck reversed into my car this morning in the street, for a building works across the street.

.......happy but sad, at least I am going to get that DAYZ front bar now hopefully through the insurance company(need a new front bar anyways). Wont be able to get the parts anywhere by from Nissan either......

The damage is front bar support (which was custom done by revzone for my cooler), front 1/4 panel, front bar, front bar lip, front idicator (possibly salvagable), front driver headlight and front driver parker

That really sucks! Sorry to hear it Alex, I really hate it when something happens to your car and you had nothing to do with it. If they can't drive without hitting stationary objects then I don't think they should be driving at all!

As far as insurance is concerend, it is a Dayz bar the has been damaged right? :thumbsup:

Alex,

Shizen Houzen.

Want the number of my Panel Beaters?

Tops Blokes.

Nunawading Panels

9873 5855

Tell you I sent you.

PS. Who's the insurance company for the person who hit you.

NEVER LET THEM TAKE YOUR CAR FROM YOU.

They will fix it in the cheapest possible manner and tell you its good enough.

Speak to Tony. He'll help you out with whatever you need.

that sucks mate, but at least you got all of his details

Alex, if you want a driver side qtr panel, a guy here in Kinglake West has got one, its silver

but is clean as

give him a call, might still have it 03-5786-5566 or 0418 123 637

a good guy and knows his skylines-

I am not after any parts thanks guys, just letting you all know about it is all.

The insurance company will cover all the costs, ive never thought this about any other car, but i shit everyone not but I can see this ending up to cost 7-10k after labour, parts etc...

Alex,

which insurance company is he with?

I repeat. DO NOT GIVE YOUR CAR TO THE INSURERS.

Get the quotes yourself, give them to the insurance company and make sure they go to your chosen repairer to asses to damage.

Don't go to their assesment places, as they often just take photos of the damage and ask panel beaters to quote on the e-mail, and then give the job to the cheapest, regardless of the work involved.

BASS OUT

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
