I feel for you mate. in one way I kind of hope you dont have insurance, cause it's bound to affect my premium when it's up for renewal. on the other hand a $30K loss will be hard to swallow. I can see how it happend. It's a momentary lapse in judgement. You have 3 guys in the car looking to buy. they've heard it's got mega killowatts. you know they aren't going to be impressed if you cruise around at 60kmh in 3rd gear at 2200rpm, so you think, I better give it a hit. 1st, 2nd, 3rd all about as fast as you can read them and bang, lift off oversteer, slow to react... lights out. it doesn't excuse what you did at all, but at least I can empathise a little with you. I'm sure you dont need anyone telling what a major f**kup it was.

sorry to see a nice car go like that though. but very pleased no-one was injured.

and GRKGTR why were you buying another GTR if you have no licence? and 2 why did you drive home without a licence? doesn't make sense to me.

Hey mate,

I was getting my licence back in 4 weeks and i didn't drive my car there or back... my mates did and driving a car with mega kilowatts fast doesnt impress me at all.. i have been in a 450awkw GTR and i was loving life and didnt even go above 3500rpm.. also i knew all about the car when Morgs was first trying to sell it... i would of bought it off him but lacked the $$$$$$.

Stupid, nothing but stupid. Yes we have all broken the speed limit, yes we all give our cars a bit of a push here and then. But to do it in a 60 zone, residential area with a child care centre too - nothing but STUPID.

I can't believe people are asking if he has insurance etc... It's a piece of metal (yes i love my car too) but its a car at the end of the day. I have 2 young children as well, i'm just imagining them outside that centre now, no offence - i hope you get the maximum penalty for such a stupid act.

seriously, can all the do-gooders go aply for parking maid jobs kthanks.

dont sit there and preach about how dumb this guy is. the fact you all probably own a skyline means you like what they do heheh

and as nick said, lucky it was school holidays.

also. im not sticking up for him. if he was ignorent enough not to know about semi slicks then this is proof enough. ive driven up/down there heaps. its a nasty corner that tightens and is off camber. doing it in 3rd on boost is beyond me.

its a royal ACIDENT. not a ON-PURPOSE.

im all to familiar with the fact that shit happens. its a gtr with heaps of snappy t04z power.

unfortonatly the cops arnt gonna like us much anymore.

and oh.... if they have any idae THEYL BE READING THIS AND USING IT FOR EVIDANCE. so be careful on what you guys say in regard to the details of the acident.

once again SEMIS STRIKE AGAIN. im glad no one was badly hurt

as much as i have to say it, what did ya expect, doing those speeds on the roads, there is no excuse for it, and i can justify why the cops hassle so many people. obviously it will make ya think twice about doing it, but roads are for driving on, there not for going fast like a race track.

glad too see everyone is ok, thats a good sign.

Well after being in an accident like that, you don't really wanna get back into a high-powered car the next day. If you were in my position ... (almost getting your head crushed by a brick wall and from the roof just missing our heads thank god for the seats) you might just know why i want one... coz its just a genuine cruising car plus summer is coming up and it will be less than the $4,500 insurance i pay for my GTR now and much better on fuel.

not preaching to anyone, you can give it here and there, thats fine..

but 140 on a crappy road?

no accident is on purpose, thats why they are called accidents and as you said, we've all done stupid things but most people could stop and think about what they are doing, for example putting your passengers lives on the line.

The driver had 3 passengers well potential buyers.. Mate if i was a potential buyer and i saw you thrashing the car what do you think i would be thinking? Thats f**ken stupid. Yes you've been driving for a while but you should of known better, your f**ken lucky there was no kids.. I hope you learn your lesson because it's people like you and faggets that take their dads cars and smash into poles and ruin it for everyone.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
