Friday night was taking missus home, lady driver jumps accross a median strip, as she does her hub cap flies off and wacks my bonnet and front window, then after slowly braking because the lady is now stopping in the middle of the road in front of me, a guy wacks into my rear!. bloody fantastic. Had a unnoficial guy look at it and he reckons its a write off. SOOOO GAY! had it for like 3 months! Anyway see how it goes. Fingers crossed its fixable. Will probably loose alot outta this one

Heres the pics i know everyone loves! Although they bring tears to my eyes. So incredibly pissed off!

Yea im fine, got some wiplash kicking in now. Sucks driving, feel like someones gonna ram into me all the time now! Sorting out all the insurance crap now. Really hope it goes quickly. The guy who did the rear seems really good and should be sorted out quickly but the chick who did the front prob will be harder but is the least of my worries, once the back is fixed it will be fine.

hopefully get it checked out this week. Nervous! some ppl are saying for sure it will be fixable but a some are saying its screwed.

i guess it depends on whether there is any structural damage? Looks a lil bit twisted, but just looking at it id say it should be fixable, though it will never be the same. Do you have lowered/tight suspension? A knock like that can put things out of alignment sometimes.

Hope it all goes well, hey. Everytime i drive i stress someone is going to hit my car, hey.

I think she was smoking crack. Shes such a b****. She reckons it wasn't her fault. too bad the police and insurance don't agree with her. She abused me on the phone the other day, i have been so nice to her considering what she did, she just snapped, "I didn't do anything wrong, you were speeding, i couldn't see because it was dark, my brakes didn't work, bla bla bla" Didn't know there were that many excuses. In the end i just said look lady you got two options, here is a quote for the repairs, how you pay for it is up to you, give me the cash or make a claim and we'll do it through insurance. "Okay watever. bye!"

god damn. ppl on our road. I was sereously in the middle of a crazy crack smoking b**** and a rebel P plater who has no cause. - Ill take that back about the p-plater, he has been extremely good and fast with the whole process.

Neway, while its in for repairs im thinking of getting it touched up, and also was thinkking of replacing the rear garnish, and rear lights with the series 2 ones which i prefer. This should cost the same but maybe a little extra as ithey will need to be painted im guessing. Obviously i will pay the extra if they let me do that that is. But would give skyline a new arse to show off and maybe cheer her up abit ;-)

But otherwise looks like everthing should be okay. Not sure about long term damage to skyline, but guys from trojan motorsport will help out to source parts etc which is awesome of them. Should be on the road in say 4 weeks or so :-( :-)

Oh and wat does it mean when someone says that the car may never be the same again?

    • I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do
    • Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.
    • R34 RB25de Neo by the way ^ 
    • Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
