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??

    • 2 spots that my exhaust guy joined the 2 pipes together  Made a big difference. I'm now able to live with it. I can make it louder if I want by removing the HKS caps.
    • Hi all, considering clutch upgrade to support 1130 engine hp from 1650cc injectors on e50 at 85% duty cycle (1650 x (11.85/14.7) x 85%). Narrows down to these three as they can be converted to use gm 26 spline input shaft if I ever want to use transmission with that input shaft (orc1000f and r3c easy/cheap just change center hub; tr2cd pricier must change clutch discs). Pricing orc1000f similar to tr2cd, r3c about usd 200 pricier. Orc1000f triple plate 200mm. Tr2cd twin plate 215mm. R3c triple plate 215mm. Claimed max torque : orc 1000f 723 lbs ft; tr2cd 800 lbs ft; r3c 1100 lbs ft. Why orc1000f triple plate but claims lower max torque vs tr2cd twins? Is orc1000f underrated? Any info maxing out these clutches? Info on street/traffic driveability/pedal feel? Thank you for any info on them.
    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
