If it is a real accident... there is no way they've removed any bodies from that chassis yet. =-o

Disturbing!

The Top Gear test-crash of a Smart Car came out much better than this... from 70mph into a concrete barrier, and you'd still be in one (injured) piece.

100km an hour carx(head on)100km an hour truck=200km an hour brick wall.

I think this is how it goes.May they rest in peace

looks like the truck was the one in the wrong lane too

Take another look at the pics & you might just see that it was indeed THE CAR that was on the wrong side of the road (LHD NOT RHD vehicles)

Don't automatically conclude the truck driver is at fault or you're no better than the people who take great satisfaction in categorizing us all as "hoons" simply thru our choice of vehicle. Also rather than simply an accident I'd almost go as far as to say this looks like "suicide by truck". Too square a hit to be an accident, esp as you can see the truck has made an effort to avoid the impact.

      Front facing Intercooler

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.

      Front facing Intercooler

      I’ve read the previous posts so just looking for latest information on how people have dealt with front facing plenum is it a defect etc or didn’t pass roadworthy or was it not noticed? Have a r34 and deciding if I should make a hole on the driver side or not.  I know some people have said blitz return flow but I might get rid of the stock intake down the line for a plenum so I rather set up for that now plus I already have a standard Intercooler. Car is mainly stock  Thanks.

      American owner: what scanner for JOBD port?

      Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
