thanks guys.

Yeah, it could've been worse. But hey, I could've just stayed in bed.

I was just sitting at the lights waiting with the car infront. Minding my own business. *bang*

Rear quater has a fold near where the fuel filler is. Rear quater is what concerns me the most...time wise.

Bad luck Wil. On the positive side, it could have been worse mate. I would check with your insurer, but if your car is registered (or primarily used) for work purposes, then you could have the costs of a hire car reimbursed.

that sucks mate. nothing worse than being the victim of someone elses poor driving. that will be easily fixed, even the rear quarter will be no big deal. you will never even know it happend. skylines can take quite a hit in the rear without hurting the car as there is no chassis rails or structural members past the rear suspension. the boor area etc is all just crumple zone.

:wub::):P

Would be nice if the other driver was fined or had demerit points taken or had their eyes checked out or something!!

I parked my old car (lancer) in a carpark and an old lady side swiped my car while she reversed out.. she didnt even notice doing it... she never got a fine or anything.. grrrrrr .. those drivers should not be on the road!

Yeah, kinda sucks alot.

I seriously didn't think that could ever happen where it did. The road is a quiet 50km/h road.. very straight for atleast 100m before the traffic lights. It's not like you can't see the lights, you can see them from over 100m away...

9:30'ish on a Sunday morning...

Lights were red. I had been waiting for a bit already. One car infront. I guess I was lucky with not hitting the car infront.

That's a damned shame, dude, but at least you're OK.

Very true. Just a case of wrong place, wrong time. What really shits me is that I didn't *need* to be there at that time.

Ah well.

1) your car is exotic, exotics are expensive to fix :)

2) widebody time

3) pay off some of ya debt :wub:

I wish it was an exotic! Although if it was I think I would be crying right now.

Nah, no more mods.

Nothing owing on the car. Bought it outright, modded it when I could afford it. I'm an old bastard though compared to most on here. Although I look younger than nearly everyone....except doodz. lol

****EDIT: I'm a bit slow this morning... lol. :P

Careful with the old comments! :wub::) though you're lucky you look about 15 :P

think i know which light you were at too.. is it the one at new line rd? man that is a long stretch! the dumbass must have been fiddling with his radio or something! you seriously can't miss that light! and you're right.. lucky you weren't pushed into the car in front! that'd be ten times worse, cause you'd have front bar and maybe fmic damage... and who knows what after that!

you going to get some quotes today? or no time? :P

Yep, those were the lights.

I just got back from my panel beater's. He's taken photo's and written down all the damage and parts that need replacing, and he's going to go find prices now. If all goes well the car should be with him next week. He said it'd take maybe 2 weeks.

I hope it only takes 2 weeks.

I'm "working from home" today. Damn my neck and back hurt. :\

:( bad luck man.

Yeah lucky you left enough room in front. That's what happened to Ed's R34. Hit behind same way but pushed into car in front. Write off.

That would've really sucked.

bad go wil, suppose it could have been worse. and at least not you can shave the boot lock and remove that badge

Hey man, true. I actually thought about doing that. But what happens if the boot cable breaks? It's impossible to get into the boot from the inside of the car with an r33. lol

It'd look good though. I dunno.

I am so sorry to hear that wil, poor car :(

I really hope you have no problems with having it fixed *hugs*

Me too. Can't wait till this is just a fading memory

Damn :(

Looks like sunday was a bad morning for everyone - defects for me - yay

Hope the damage isnt too bad mate

That's not good re: defects.

Some bad karma going around on Sunday. Don't know why.

If your luck you might be able to get that graffiti on the side of your car, that some vandal has done, fixed up in the same claim.

w & b ?? :bunny:

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
