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.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
