Bit harsh there Phil, he may own that R34GTR. Feel sorry for the owner, but that is why i don't like towing cars on hired trailers, that are not properly maintained. I have seen this too many times, to take the risk.

I drive a Ford, does that make me a dumb-ass too? (retorical question no need for answers thanks :sick:).

My Ford comes free. With free; servicing; insurance; petrol; etc (not so dumb after all, hey >_<)

meh, i get cut-off, tail-gated, blocked in the fast lane by fords, by far the most often so i feel i have justification to stereotype this guy :sick:

Just to stir the pot a bit more:

F.O.R.D - Fix Or Repair Daily >_<

Errr Hi everyone,

It is my GTR.

the accident happened a couple of weeks ago, and the only one injured was me - torn muscles in my back and neck (pretty much better now).

The car is not written off. In fact the damage was relatively minor and she should be back on the road hopefully by the end of August.

that is the grey 34 as seen at recent events such as Sandown. Poor Neil got into a spot of bother towing it down the hill past Pikes Ck on the Western Hwy and ended up killing BOTH his cars.

Don't put shit on him for driving a Ford. I've also got an AU. It's a bloody good car, possibly the sexiest four door ever made.

Thanks Aaron,

The ford was good - allowed me to get out of this scrape with minimal injuries - but as for the "sexiest" 4-door, I'm not so sure >_<

When I say "relatively'', if it was a commodore and not a GTR, it would have been about $12,000 to fix, but because of the price of parts etc on the gtr you can multiply by about a factor of 4!

All panels down the passenger side rooted, nose ripped off (going to put a nismo front bar on as a replacement), passenger side suspension components damaged etc.

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
