They didnt mention the car being an import or a high performance car, nor did they mention the drivers being young...

Therefore it must have been a ford laser filled with old ladies on their way home from the bingo hall...

See it just does not get the medias full attention does it...!!!

NOTE: Take my post with a gain of salt...

I saw a VT wrapped around a pole on Tuesday lunch time on the corner of Days & Lutwyche Roads...

It was a lady in her 30's and she was attending her daughter in the back of the car while driving at 60kph...

She could have gone through the front of the shops on that corner and killed people... Lucky there was a pole there, maby now they will put up a crash barrier... It made the news also, as the camera crews were there when i drove past...

Anyway this has nothing to do with this topic, but i felt like sharing anyway... :(

They reakon he was doing 100.

And Duporth Ave is confusing - it appears to be a 60 zone but it is infact a 50 zone. I used to live on it.

there was nothing left of the car, i reckon he was doing more than 100...police have no need to talk it up though, it wasnt a young person driving, nor was it a modified/import car. Most of duporth is unmarked and a built up area, therefor a 50 zone.

There was something left of the car.

It looked nowhere near as bad as the crash a few weeks ago in mountain creek. I'd put it at 120 tops - plus, where he crashed gave him about 100-150m of acceleration space if the newspaper was correct in identifying where he crashed (By the christian center).

dammit there goes out lil freedom whatever we had.. this is why Tracks are used for fooling around .. not many people understand that...

Niceest looking supra tho. shame its pretty much totaled

it's being fixed again, not a total write off.

but with the guy who hit the pole on duporth, it just goes to prove that u dont have to be 17 and own a high powered sports car to be a fool behind the wheel, i hope the police take notice of the facts that he was 30 and owned a family sedan.... then maybe they can start picking on the ppl who deserve it.

the sunshine coast daily article in regards to this was a joke. The police were winging about young ppl in fast cars, amongst other things about educating young drivers etc. It really did p*ss me off. I do agree with a lot of the things in regards to young ppl in fast cars and under educated drivers but if anything this only proves exactly what you have just said..you dont have to be 17 and in a high peformance car to have a crash and cause a fatality. Maybe the police should take a look at whats really going on and realise this too!

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
