the news report labled the car as a nissan coupe........nice to know they aint pointing it out as a import...or such other things/.....ill try get more info and some pics.....

heres the story.............

Police believe the car in the fatal smash in North Caulfield was travelling at 140 kmh, twice the speed limit for the section of road.

Assistant Commissioner (Traffic) Noel Ashby told theage.com.au speed was the main factor in the accident which has left two young women dead and four others in hospital.

The women, both of Noble Park, died after the 1989 Nissan 300 ZX sedan carrying six women slammed into a brick fence shortly after 3.30am at the corner of Dandenong and Wattletree roads, police said.

Four other women in the car, all in their early 20s, suffered injuries ranging from minor to critical.

turns out the car was going 140 in a 70 zone.....man some guys realli need to slow down :P

Dude your right. I admit ive done some stupid shit, heck Ive done 140 Km/h too but... ON A FREEWAY WITH NO CARS late at night! Id never do that kind of dumb shit in a 70 KM zone... more so with 6 people in the car! If I ever do stupid shit then Im alone in the car! I never dare to do that with passengers!

i wouldnt be saying that to your girlfriend anytime soon :)

Oh cr#p... I remember seeing a Darkish grey 300ZX with I think Silver oldish style Enkei's going Caulfield way when I passed the Warrigal/Princess fwy intersection. This was about 3:30am after coming back from the city...

f**k that's scary. In this position, do you think would it be an idea to contact the Police?

when did 300zx's come with 4 doors? :)

They don't they came in 2+2 and the rear seats are REALLY squashy.

Sorry Dezz, strongly disagree buddy :D

Do you think they would be as tempted to do such speeds in a shit-box, i don't. There are alot of sensible P-platers out there (and in this club), but even these people get tempted or pushed into doing stupid thing, because the car has the ability.

I wasn't saying what I said because i'm a p-plater in an overpowered car....

I'm saying she had 6 people in a car that we all know is not capable of carrying 6...you'd be lucky to get 5 in a 300zx comfortably..

and there's no mention of it being twin turbo, so for all we know it was an underpowered and overweight N/A

you'd be hard pressed to get 3 people in 300zx comfortably, have you ever seen the space for the back seats? :)

Jeez - RIP

What were they thinking when they were doing that. It could have been worse, like the one on police rd in springvale. A pedestrian or another road user may have died. Such a waste of life.....

and finally the journalists dont know jack shit about imports, hence they said its a sedan

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
