Sorry to hear the unfortunate news LIZZEH :D , best wishes for recovery physically & emotionally :P . Cars do come & go, it was a little beast TEAM 13 will live on ;) . For every cloud there is a silver lining your next toy will surely be an upgrade ( not implying silvia was no good ), hope you heal up quick & get back on your path to racing ASAP. Good luck with future plans, take care, god bless. :D

actually, if you do want a skyline i may be persuaded to sell my 32 GTST for a cheap price. :P it would be tops either with the RB20, or with your SR in there. let me know if you're interested when you know what you want to do.

whoa suxz0rz lizzeh

f**ken oath it sucks

and craig, nah it wasn't insured but the driver that hit me was insured, and has been charged with neg driving.

I've got an independant assessor coming to look at the car tomorrow, he'll take into account all work done on the car and the base shells replacement value, my mechanic will also put together a statement of all work completed on the car.... we'll then wave it infront of GIO and ask for a pay out

I've also been advised that the assessor will also take into account how long this car took to get built, so that'll play in the final asking price.... and i wanna buy the wreck back coz there is a fair amount of goodies on it that i wouldn't mind transferring to the next project (s14 engine and s15 brakes)l.

I'm just so pissed off about the whole thing, the tears have only just started to subside, I'm absolutely devestated. It'd be a completely different story if this was my R33, but I, along with my mechanic had put alot of time and effort into putting this car together only to have it smashed up by some careless idiot who was too busy playing with his mobile phone than watching the road.

But anyway, no use complaining about what's already done... just time to pick up the pieces and start planning for the next project. Ps. it won't be another skyline unless it's a gts-r

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
