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??

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
