Holy shit :D I feel like I've just been hit by a Mack Truck.

It's 3:30am, and I just got home... I was out driving with one of my chickies after we went to dinner at Crows Nest...

I thought I'd give the car a bit to show off so I turned up the boost to 1.2 bar and nailed it down Pacific Hwy... I was going about 120-130km/h when we rounded this corner and I flew past a cop car travelling the speed limit...

He immediately flicked on his siren, flashing lights and started to give chase... I knew he'd have absolutely zero chance of catching me, so I dropped it a gear and nailed it... He disappeared in my rear view mirrior like a GTS-t vs. GTR... But by this stage, I had wound our 3rd gear, and was going about 180km/h which is pretty quick on those moderately windy Pacific Hwy roads...

As I exited a corner, I got on the gas a little early and the rear end stepped out. I lifted off slightly and corrected, but the turbo completely came off boost and the rear end snapped back around and spun the car... I hit a telegraph pole sideways with the rear quarter of the car on the passenger side... The car ripped in two along the rear seats and my friend is now in hospital... They moved her out of Intesive Care an hour ago, and I think she'll be okay... THANK GOD.

Needless to say, the cops finally caught upto us and he told me to goto the hospital and he'll be coming around to talk to me tomorrow... He also added that I shouldn't be looking to drive for the next 5 years :cry:

God, I feel so ****ing stupid. I'm going to try and get some sleep.

I managed to take a photo of the car before the Ambulance arrived... I'll attach it in the next post.

      The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.

      @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?

      I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk

      Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.
