Well, just got home from watching this guy get rescued from a bus that ran into a building. Apparently, there a couple of retards in front of the bus on Pacific hwy drag racing when one of them lost control. The bus behind him swirved to avoid him and drove into a building complex (not in in but stopped 2 meters short of the building). The paramedic and rescue people spent an hour and a half cutting him free lets hope he's alright. A damaged black WRX was parked nearby while the other vehicles were nowhere to be seen. The police had to close off one side of the highway.

This information came straight from the police/paramedic/firefighter and witnesses themselves as I stayed around for the report.

It's people like them that give us such bad names.....hope they rot in jail.

The WRX had the plate PHWOOA............not anymore you don't you piece of shit.

I couldn't agree with you more.

Nearly 3 years ago myself and my partner were involved in an accident due to a P-plater in a cressida (turbo) crossing to our side of the road and hitting us head on.

He gets out ok,meanwhile my otha half and our son crawl out of our wrecked R32 un-injured while I'm 6 months pregnant with our daughter and trapped in the car.

I still have to live with the after math of this guy's actions for the rest of my life. I will have screws holding my foot to my leg for the rest of my life.

The moral of the story I'm all for performance cars but there is a time and a place for this. Keep it on the track..You could quite easily kill someone.

Oh and our Daughter is now a perfectly healthy 2 year old..

Saw the aftermath of this as well..... i can not agree more with previous comments.... 100% Pure Wankers!

Don't worry karma will come back and serve justice to the tossers.....

Buy a taxi and take it to the track :D

man thats why i joined this forum...doesn't SAU stand for Street-racers Australia Underground???? :D

Glad to hear noone was injured. Way too many f00ls like this around

freaky how it fits so perfectly....

they didn't mention it on the paper, but the statement the police gave said speeding involved

Speeding is one thing, 'street racing' is another, so which was it?

That accident is nothing compared to the EVO 6 that hit a pole in Tempe and split in half.

Notice how the bus collided with the car?

If they were racing and lost control, I don't think the bus would have kept up...

Unless of course the guy spun and the bus plowed him. Which I doubt it...

I'm guessing this is it:

drove past there today, that bus is very lucky it didnt go further through the building...

theres a big set of skidmarks on the inside lane and its obvious where the rexxy lost it, they were prob overtaking the bus eitherside, the rexxy seems to have lost it and shot across the other two lanes, the bus swerving hard left to avoid the rex in the right, .....

morons

2 or 3 cars were said to be involved in street racing and wrx spun and the bus must have bumped it while trrying to avoid it and ended up going into the building......

yeah i heard about the evo 6 from the channel 7 guy that was filming the whole thing

    • sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving. 
    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
