He was a true Gentleman.. Sad sad day for Australian motorsport.

I remember when I was a little tacker I was chasing him to autograph my hat, he had like 5 assistants trailing him and was about 1/2 way up the stairs to his private HRT tent and he made the time to sign it.

Champion full stop

Some video articles for this inclined, there are 3 in total, including one with Bev aswell.

I must say, even though they arent together, its a very tough interview where she is very very honest.

I swear, i never thought id feel this crap all arvo/night - but the accident and death has really gotten me down - Kinda strange cos even though I was saddened by steve irwins death, it wasnt as bad as this - probably cos I love cars and racing and have been following it since I came to this country......I kept watching the news pretty much all night (both on tv and on the internet), probably a bad move - but I just couldnt get myself to leave it...

RIP Brocky

I am a ford man myself but for Peter I have never had anything but the utmost respect he was always gracious in defeat not that it happened much and a true gentleman when he won. Australia has lost its motoring King. I feel for his kids and his extended family it must be hard for them because he was such a big celebrity they will find it hard to mourn without the media on them 24/7

Take Care Brocky

Yep, RIP Peter Brock.

looking at those overhead shots of the site it looks like a fairly easy mistake, narrow road and the tree is mere meters from the edge of the bitumen, and from the radio interviews it sounds like he was fairly concerned about the tailiness of the car...

sad loss for aussie motorsport no matter who you support.

    • Yes the gear for the R33/34 is different, it is red and has a different number of teeth. My part didn't come with that gear though, so I don't know how many teeth are on the red one. You'd have to reuse the 260RS/R33 gear, as long as it's not destroyed.   Haha, as unfortunate as that might be it was working fine for about the first 1500km I've had the car for now.
    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
