if that story is accurate, which it appears to be, it answers alot of questions...drunk, not her car (probably not used to driving it), and speed....worst thing in this case would appear to have been the drinking, if she wasnt drinking she probably wouldn't have been doing 180kmph in a situation which she had no chance of controlling. Shes going to get smashed because of this too, because the police will use it as a PR opportunity and its going to get maximum press!

And if it was directly related to her drink driving then it bloody well should get maximum press. Speeding is one thing.. Drink driving and clocking 180+ in a 60 zone is just f**king stupid. And who gets shafted here? Not the driver.. the poor bloody passenger. I say throw the book at her.

Just spotted on the news, a white 33 with 3 spoke rims destroyed in Redcliffe.

24yo male driver dead, female passenger in critical condtion.

Police stated driver lost control.

Hope it was no one on here. Be careful out there people!

it was the creator of this thread that said the male was driving

making public statements like this on a forum is just askin for u to have ur ass handed to u by everyone.

judging all other womens driving based on your "girlfriends" driving is a unbiased opinion.

pretty stupid call to make on here.

Keep it on topic please. This is about a skyline crash. Not about you telling someone what is a good and bad post.

correct me if im wrong, but I dont see how the female is going to cop anything bad considering she was the passanger of the car.

The police may question her in regards to what the driver was doing at the time but i dont see how she would be coppin the fines/tickets as she wasn't behind the wheel.

but yeh, she will have a lot to now deal with, with the death of a friend or a family member from this accident.

uhh, she was driving the car (which was his)

geezus, what do you have to do to get the message across to people?

thank god these idiots didnt injure any innocent parties which would have made this a million times worse

I'm pretty sure the 10 News report said he was driving, buy anyway its now obvious she was.

Such a waste.

If you are going to drive a car like a tool, do it with no one else in the car and in the right environment.

Just got this email. Not sure how true it is

IMPORTANT: Read this its sad but good to realise that life is short and take things slowly and realise cars KILL!!

hey guys and girls.

I have a little story about last night and the death of a acquaintance.

I knew this guy His name was ryan and he had a GF, ive met him a few times and talked a bit about cars top dude... anyway last night we were at a friends place drinking (no i didnt drive) and he was driving his fairly stock r33 gtst.

I left at about 12am-1am and i thought he was staying there the night with our other friends cause he had been drinking.. About 20mins into walking home i see his car FLYING down the road parallel to the one im walking on (150+). As im walking into a servo about 10 mins after that, I see a firetruck go past and thought nothing of it.

Anyway about a hour later i get a phone call when im a street away from my house saying ryans car is next to totaled in the back of kippa ring service station.

So my good mate who saw it while driving past came and picked me up to take me there.. i made a statement and told them what had been happening. The officer on the scene told me that his GF was driving and had lost control of the car at around 180-kph heading up anzac avenue(60 zone). The servo was completely blocked off but they let me in and CH10 news was there and it might be aired tomorrow on the 5pm news.

Shes now in critical condition at the royal brisbane and hes in the redcliffe hospital morgue.

So if your going to take anything out of reading this take the lesson to not drink and drive or do not get in a car with a drunk driver. I am unbelievably lucky because i was considering to get a lift with them.

perhaps if the police had been targeting skylines more a life would have been saved in this case

WTF?? what a crap thing to say...

dude so you like the attention and getting hasseled?? you drive a Skyline too....

man i think you should go play some where else...

Skylines/imports/V8's should be made illegal for members of the population with a blatant lack of intelligence.

and how are we ment to find out about these people?

drink driving is a bitch... and these people found out first hand....

you see people saying i feel sorry for these people... i really dont..... they desereve(sp) it and more.....

you drink drive and speed you get the consiquences... hmm.. your life and others lives are they realy worth more than a taxi ride??

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
