ok as topic says, last night bout 11:30, coming upto nth east road, near north adelaide, we saw a 34 being put onto a tow truck.

We decided to do a u turn and go have a better look, the whole drivers side was gone - like pushed half way in and the front window was smashed and roof was cut open, i seriously dont know if the driver couldve survived that. Looks like it just crumpled around a stoby pole.

Was a silver 2 door, plates started with XLO or similar

Anyone else see it or know anything about it?

Bak on topic....

Yeah I was there just after it happened, driver was a bald headed guy with a dark goatee. The car was badly wrapped around a stobie pole and there was no visible skid marks or other damaged cars so I think he did it all by himself.

The ambos used two sets of 'Jaws of life' to cut the guy out which is why the whole side was opened up flick!

Hope all are ok but the car was pretty stock lookin with a set of enkei? or some such rims... dunno if it was anyone from the forum?

Thought of leeman or evil34 at first which is why we stopped.

..... Now back to the topic at hand! Obviously i hope the guy is ok, but in reality he must have been doing something stupid, as i assume he wasn't T-boned by someone else and then bang into the stobbie! Hope he doesnt buy another Line........ or if he does he has learn from his life changing situation!

sounds like someone lost control, perhaps, on a slippery bit of road. over corrected and slammed into a fixed object, at speed. not good. I sincerely trust they are ok.

also sounds like some ppl (edit: read everyone!!) perhaps should deal with a load of debilitating pain at some stage in their life, more sympathy and thought may then be shown in regards to responding to posts. although I, and Im sure black32 agrees with me on this, wouldnt wish that on anyone. please think about the person you are replying to. its fairly common knowledge that black has suffered from a bad back injury, requiring heavy painkillers which can infact alter your mood. "trust me" I know.

if you are in a lot of pain, not feeling good about yourself, it doesnt take much to rub you up the wrong way. I think black32 here presents himself admirably, in regards to his particular circumstances.

ignore me, Im rambling. better then drooling tho. :(

edit: apologies for my stupid post. but meh. thats me.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
