I got rear ended this morning. Im kinda bummed about it because I got a speeding fine yesterday on my 21st birthday, and I think I lost my license. The worst thing is that they pegged me for 95 in a 60 zone leading on to an on-ramp of the freeway :) . Kind of an unfair spot, I think.

lol @ bday sex; geez mums can be so kind and thoughtful sometimes, hey?!?!

hahaha sorry man, joking, trying to get ya to laugh - good work on that account tho

With the speed camera and the area it was situated in, etc, you have all the right to go with it to court, plead for leniancy etc.

As for the rear end, man bad luck. Thats mighty depressing. Hope it all irons out ok

Now there's an emotional couple of days =\

Bad luck about the fine (you should fight I say!) Good work on getting some =D

I recently parted ways with a long term GF and my Series II GTS25T - Upgraded to a GTR and currently 'upgrading' to a hotter GF :wub:

Sometimes these kind of things are really blessings in disguise!

Good luck!

= $10k repair bill before you can even blink.....

I hear East Bear body kits are really nice.....

You were right, and the panel beaters are booked solid so might end up being a write off!

Thanks for your support guys it means a lot :) . I wont be fighting the fine as I'm moving really close to my work so I'm going to take it on the chin, and save some money for 3 months!

but i wish i could upgrade my wife too :)

back to the topic, 95 on a 60..ouch$

they set the camera there on purpose, bet they'd have a 60 sign right next to it too

I had a little shunt, had to replace the rear bar, rear panel, bumper re-inforcement, and spray the whole rear end.

To spray the whole rear end you also have to spray right over the roof and down the A pillers, as it's one section of steel.

My damage was HARDLY visibled, but the repair did need to be performed.

Total cost was $7,300.

The accident I see above needs

rear bar

rear panel

boot panel

brake lights x 2

boot

both quarter panels

bar reinforcement

window seals x 2

The remove and refit on those parts alone is going to be $10k

Then there's the labour to pull the car straight etc etc.

I put a beer on Write off.

Sorry man.

did you have insurance? or should i say did the person who hit you have 3rd party?

Ive always thought that meant their insurance company has to pay for it if at fault? so new car for you?

The assessor just called me and said its most probably going to be a write off, however I need to get a quote because if the accident goes to court they need evidence that it was actually written off.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
