Sitting at traffic lights today, behind some hick in a jacked up '85ish Patrol with mud up to the windows...... for NO reason at all the f**ker reverses about 6-8 feet fast enough to chirp his rears, I had time to think" f**k!! " and chuck the R in reverse and try & get outa the road...... and he tags me good and proper..... :yes:

Damage..... Bonnet stuffed, grille cracked, passenger guard dented, Vspec lip stuffed......

looks like im getting that carbon bonnet a little sooner than planned! :D:D

Still cant figure out why he wanted to go backwards in such a hurry, my first thought was deliberate, but he was keen to get it settled & sorted out once we got to the side street...... i mean i barely had time to react.....

hey this happened to one guy in my team last week. some retart just decided to reverse at the lights??

anyway they exchanged details and then he changed his story and said my mate ran into him...which to tell u the truth sounded more legit...anyway lucky for some witnesses and the cops got involved...

hehe

as it happens I work in a position where its possible to see certain things...turns out he owned some money and hadn't passed on his new address...hehe we made sure the debt collectors knew where to find him!

classic...

Hey Rod, sure it wasn't Emre :thumbsup: He's into SUV's now isn't he?

There's nothing worse than some scumbag changing their story so get them to draw a diagram on the spot and sign and date.

Chris, has that guy got a tax debt my wife should know about? :ermm:

Hey Geoff, nah it wasnt the big fella..... he's got more class than a hick old school Patrol! Land Cruiser all the way! LOL!

Taking it to the panel shop today for quotes, not looking forward to driving it with a mushed in nose......

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
