I was an unfortunate passenger in a mates car who went over the cliff edge two weeks ago at Peachester rd. Add going way to fast (140kmph), stock suspenson, no abs and 11:30 at night = 40+ meters of black skid marks leading over the edge of the cliff, 1 tree with bark missing and 1 tree snapped in half that landed on the roof. We went over the edge so fast we didnt go down, we kept going straight off the edge, hit a tree over the side of the cliff about 2 meters from the bottom of it, then bounced of it into another tree snapping it and it landed on the roof, then we dropped down (the front of the car down, tail up) and where hanging that vertical we where suspended by our seat belts.. I put my feet on the dash so i could undo my seat belt, opened the door and climbed up the b pillar onto the tyre and then the boot like a ladder... 3 hours later two 4wd's barely got the car out. Just goes to show even the most compitent of drives come undone.. i got some cuts on my hands from the broken glass and whiplash.. luckily the driver wasn't hurt.. I'll tell you one thing, there's a shit load of bloody spiders down there hahaha, i shat myself. Bloody silvia's.. Good road though

Haha crazy shit!... If I had of heard it I would have come down to help/laugh 140 at any point on that road is insano.. With stock suspension is plain idiotic

Spiders lol

Thats pretty crazy!

Not a place you want to go off.

I was a good kid, I dont think I exceeded the speed limit all day.

Haha yeah, happened about half way up on a pretty sharp corner, we managed to go between a gaurd rail about 2 meters to the left and a massive tree 2 meters to the right, so yeah we where kinda lucky we didnt smash into those otherwise we would have been mashed up pretty badly.. my fone battery died so i dont have any pictures which sucks because all you could see was the cannon sticking up and the fuel tank, the rest of the car was over the edge wedged against a tree holding us from dropping about another 7 meters down.. when the first 4wd came to pull us out, it disloged the car from the tree and made it go down a bit further, so we had to get another 4wd to help, we also had to dig away the top part of the cliff because the angle it was over was far to steep, so we had to kinda dig away at the edge for an hour to smooth it off. I've been in a car doing 160+ on that road with semi slicks.. much to my objection, more bloody silvia drivers heh..

Stock suspension in the Silvia / 180sx range of cars really isn't that bad, unless it is clapped out. There wasn't many cars that could get away from my 180sx in the hills before I had the suspension modified*. Now with the coilovers (not to mention worse road tyres) it is too rough to cope well with all the bumps, so it slows me down a bit.

*Note to anyone interested - This was with Bridgestone Grid IIs (Jap version?) 215/60/15 on stock rims.

ps. I never drove at the speeds that have been mentioned.
