nup it was his first nite out, fu#n idiot, ah well wot u gonna do. think he was gettin insurance monday. :D

Ouch!

As you probably know, getting insurance is as simple as a 20 minute phone call, i bet he's regreting putting that call off til Monday!

Bugger.. especially when its so easy to ring an insurance company and get a cover note that covers the car instantly.

If it is a written off he will no doubt be selling parts off it. I'm after a few interior bits, drop me a pm and I'll forward my number or vice versa.

Wow that sucks but sorry to say, stupidity paid a big part here, he just has to learn a lesson from it; albeit an expensive one!

Hope he's alright however, I know what it feels like to lose a car, happened to my first R33 when someone cleaned me up on the way to work :D

did he crash it like... 3 hours after he bought it. a younger mate of mine mentioned to me a mate of his bought his r32 yesterday or something and smashed it wihtin 3 hours i believe its the same guy haha. f**ken adel, small world.

Yes it was. Friend is a member of R31 club... and he mentioned it on there.....

Wonder if he's liable for the phone box? Police involved at all?

nar think he drove the car off so cops didnt get there fast enough, but yeh went around and had a look at the dmg its not written off but hes bought the parts to fix it and in total costs about $2500-3000 so he must be peaking, ah well, yeh he had the car for about 5 hours i think. :domokun:

Yeah haha thats the guy, my mate mat was around his place with him before today i think or yesterday... had parts for it around the place and he was trying to get it all fixed and was asking me a few questions thru mat about headlights and purge tanks...

Man whenever I buy a car I take it really easy until you know the limits. I don't think I took it for a proper thrash in the hills for about a month after I bought it.

Guess he will learn big time from that mistake.

The thing is these cars have a higher limit than almost all the drivers on here have ability.

Not good At all. This is the reason why I wont drive my car till its insured.

even though this is slighty off topic. anyone know of some nice big roads without many cops, for newbies to take out something with some power, to not end up like this driver?

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
