If anyone has details on a little white hatch... (dihatsu, hyundai or something)

with the registration 070 FSW please pm me with details.

its driven by an old senile man who opened his door into my passenger door over in Toowong post office carpark 15minutes ago.

when confronted he denied it, and claimed that he should not be subjected to this kind of terrorism.

then claimed that i had a particularly expensive looking car and that it was not his concern.

then quickly drove off.

tried to follow but got stuck in traffic

:P:P:O

Sorry to hear that...it absolutely sh!ts me off...just because they choose to drive sh!tboxes

Will keep an eye out anyway Eug

Someone did something similar to me, but they instead decided to reverse a WHOLE car length into my custom grille and nismo spoiler and then drive off :P

I now have Marc's brother on the "lookout" for that car :P

Forget the brake fluid. Try tile glue with fish/prawns mixed in and you pour it down the grill in front of the windscreen. Acid based cleaners will not get it off!! Only way is to physically scrape/sand it off!!

Other thing to do is file a report with the police. Then it is official and they can act to get some degree of retribution but in a fully legal way.

to be honest the damage is no more than $100, but being a student thats $100 in my pocket.

i know police wont do anything, and insurance will just throw me around in circles.

the fishglue idea sounds good. but ultimately its down to the principal!!!

My damage is $1000 in round figures...took me 3 visits to different cop shops before I could "convince" someone to take a report. Basically they won't take a report if they think it's below $2000 in damage...like they are experts in resprays and fibreglass :P

They didn't want to make the report, it was as plain as day. I had the rego, type of car, colour and I even tracked down the security camera footage showing the incident, and they still didn't want to do it.

2 months down the track I've heard absolutely nothing.

Best of luck Eug with tracking down this old bastard and making him pay.

Even if someone worked in Dept. of Trans. they couldnt give information becuase they would lose their jobs. Privacy Act.

Good luck with finding the bastard. go back to toowong next week at the same time and look for it. then its up to you what you want to do... i know what i would do =)

staff at dept of transport look at ppls details everyday !

good thing for them that if something happens to there car and see the registration number, they can look it up, And no one will know!! :P

But to giving it to anyone else, and anyone finds out where the information came from originally and there gone!!

You can get the persons details by filling in a search request form

all you need is a stat dec which clearly states what happened, and a quote from your repairer.

Costs about 15.85 and the registration and persons details are sent out too you

Im sure you just have to have the registration number, and what type of car they were driving and the date of the incident.

i had a guy do a hit and run on me. rear ended me and drove off on the foot path. i couldnt follow him because i couldnt get over the gutter. i reported it to the police and everything but as soon as they found out i owned a skyline they lost all interest & sympathy. a 3rd party witness came forth who got his number plates so the police knew who he was but despite my constant requests for updates on the situation the guy was never charged for hit and run. my mum even rang up on my behalf and they told her they were to busy to follow the case up and charge him and that i was not as innocent as she thought (despite the fact i was stopped at a red light). So that was a 2 grand excercise for me. I just think its rude that the cop was so concerned until she found out what car i had and then when she decided she didnt want to charge him theres nothing u can do

that really sucks karen... just cant believe how unresponsible other people are for their actions.

and yet when you try and do the right thing you end up being screwed around again!

i was in the car fiddling with my paper work when i saw him open the door and heard a loud "clunk" i was like wtf.. i saw him look at my door and continue to get into his car - so he definately knew he had hit mine.

that said i know even if i get his details and send him a quote to repair it he will just shrug it off... the whole karma issue wont make me feel better either. karma is for wusses.

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
