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......

Wow, lets guess some more shall we! Stop reporting off media stories.

Anyway,

Lets hope they weren't street racing, the owner of that WRX states it wasn't his fault and posts a description up of what happened on REXNET (where he's a regular member that attends cruises etc).

Who knows what the truth is really.

Any chance of a copy/paste? I'm not signing up to their forum just to read about how some idiot in a crap car with stupid plates lost control and caused a bus to crash into a building.

he is not saying anything interesting because he does not want to risk having problems with his insurance claim.

from what he has said so far you can tell he believes(or will say) that it was not his fault

Just says that the bus driver apparently cut him off. maybe pulled out on him not really anythin in concrete but he says also that due to ownin a rexy might end up being blown out of all proportion an that.

Although buses technically have right of way when pulling out they are supposed to do so safely. I have been in a situation a few times where I was already past the end of the bus or just about to be and have had to drive on the wrong side of the road to avoid an accident. I guess its possible that happened and the bus clipped him.

as a driver, seriersly i really hate bus drivers on the road....they dont give a shit while trying to cut lanes, they expect every car has to slow down n give way to them....once i saw a car parked at a bus zone at around 11pm ......a bus came over, dropped a passenger behind that car, and there was a lot of space between the car n the bus, the bus just crashed into the back bumper of that car n took off!! So good on u WRX!!!

I know!

Its so f**king stupid of them to expect people like you to obey the road rules, and give way to buses like you're meant to.

And if you park in a bus zone and compromise such a long and unwieldy vehicle's ability to make manouvres by reducing the supplied space....you deserve what you get. It might look like a lot of space to you, but a bus doesn't turn like a car does.

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.

Ye i was coming from the city and had to turn towards Sydenham.. the whole are was sealed off..

you're missing the point entirely... granted some bus drivers belong in the zoo, but Street Racing is illegal

Sreet racing a few years ago was fun as it was a race to see who can get to 60 the fastest but these days cars are faster more inexperienced drivers are out there too .

My thought on the whole manner is we dont know all the facts may be it was wrong place wrong time total accident no blam on the car owner .

or it could of been a street race gone wrong ?

or even a inexperienced driver trying to impress his mates in his urabus or what ever the car was .

All i can say is idiot if he was racing and i dont ever want some one to die but he diserves what ever he gets accident well surry bad luck impressing mates ? then grow a brain and put it on the track .

I would like to see the government put more into driver education at schools and events to teach and have fun on a race track and not target every import on the street because i garantee if you had 20 cars lined up 10 where commodore and ford owners and the rest imports the police would move the others away to start to give us a bad time

So the moral to this dribble is to stop being dicks on the road stick it on the track so then you can show off do what ever speed you want and its a hell of a llot cheaper then a speeding ticket or wors killing someone

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
