Just saw this on TV at work, missed most of it but saw what happen to be a Black R32 GTR or gtst with GTR kit, smashed. Plenty police lights and ambo's? Apparently a woman has died and her daughter is on life support.

Anyone know anything about it? Great for skyline rep again!

what the news reader did not say was: skyline, import, hi powered, p plater, godzilla, or that the car was speeding. Very unusal. I guess it is just bad luck.

Have a look at the bonnet. it has been mangalled. Poor ladie would have been torn to shreds. My heart goes out to her family and daughter.

They are gonna be bringing out some sort of speed limiter unit for cars to slow down young drivers it seems. 7 news will apparently have it on tonite as a special report....and I think last nights incident will probably be in it as well...

This occurred on Furlong Road infront of Sunshine Hospital, for those in the western suburbs - you will know the place.

I wouldn't be the one to place blame on the driver before any official report, as i know that road well - It isn't particularly safe for people trying to cross the road to the Hospital/Bus Stop inbetween pedestrian crossings which are spaced an easy 500m apart. A lot of people do this to save time.

- It is a 60 zone

- 2 lanes each direction

- Usually busy, but can be quiet on nights

I'm not placing blame on either party, but the damage to the R32 looks like a possibility of a high speed colision - so speed might be a factor?

This is a tragic accident - my condolences go out to the family of the deceased.

this is going to sound disrespectful but I dont see any pedestrian crossing in the above photo behind the car....

i used to jump the gates on the train, ride it for free. Then i got smacked with a $200 fine and these days, i just buy the tickets.

i feel for the families, but i just hope people dont jump to the conclusion that it was the drivers fault.

    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
