See Jimbo. We would have been screwed either way.

I saw another accident closer to home. Only one car, spun out and hit the wall on General Home Drive, ended up facing the opposite way. He was ok.

I got home at 4. Car seems to be ok. All the water came out of the air vents and the paper towels did the trick on the passenger side carpet. Found water in the boot too from a small leak somewhere. Nothing to worry about.

Yeah that accident looked really bad. Hope no one was killed.  

I was going like 40kmh in some sections of the Parkway. Geez it pissed down.

you went up the wakehurst? i thought you went the same way as me - up powderworks and back onto mona vale rd.

Whats the dudes name in the red series 2 that left early? hope he wasn't the one that crashed...

I saw you coming back down Mona Vale Rd Christian, you flashed several times but I only saw ur plates @ the last minute and didnt get a chance to flash back......

I agree with Ben, the parkway was atrocious........ I need to put my demisters on steroids........

Is that where you went. There was some other bloke in a R32 that was fanging around too. Maybe thats who your saw when I was on the phone to you.

Isnt it great when its pissing down rain and your driving with 0 visability and some bloke drives towards you with his highbeams on (lights).

And then you have the light marks stuck in your eyes for the next 5 minutes.

um... no.

yeh christian :) was good to finally meet you too :)

I think more late night beaches cruises are in order :)

George, I have demisters that hardly work.... ahh well I'll just add it to the list of stuff for Toyota to fix :)

two40:

Nah, christian and nick took a look at my lights but from what nick remembers of his s2, there is only one plug and it can only go in one way. sometime next week i'll take it to Envy during my lunch time to get it fixed.

I left early friday night (you probably saw me turn around two40 (since i was next to you)). I had to get up in 3 hours for work.

I also saw ronin, another skyline - maybe it was jimbo?, and nick (who was looking directly at my car trying to figure out if he knew me). They were all stop at the lights close to the start of mona vale road.

Just wondering, when did Jimbo turn up and what was his excuse for being late?

Christian: I quite like your rear bar... after following you along monavale rd It grew on my quite quickly.

Bwahaha, I turned up right when everyone was leaving the carpark, Moanie was going the wrong way, but I saw Tosh infront pulled over so I assumed everyone was pulling out ready to go so I zoomed infront of him and then when Nick flew past I thought we must be going ...

Little did I know wthat Nick and Tosh were heading elsewhere. Decided to turn on the CB to see if we were still using chan 25 due to 33 being a repeater and I heard Nick and Tosh talking about me following them so decided to butt in and thankfully Tosh decided he'd come out to show us the way :D

As for excuse, ummmmm, blame it on the rain ? :)

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
