Holy shit bags! :banana:

yeah gotta love it, the media see a skyline tag and instantly its a high performance vehicle

let alone the fact its an r31 4 door...

rear does look jap, esp the 2" single tail... looks like an import

camera angle is from the angle the car entered, the front snapped off and is bent around the section that isnt visible

typical sensationalist journalism. pathetic.

oh and good luck to the kids in there, that was a hell of a hit regardless of the shoddy reporting. i think if they survive they'll be taking the bus for quite a while.

-D

well that sucks, it didnt quote what i wanted

basically in addition, the bit about the seatbelts / seats having to be removed, they forget to mention that you cant just put the bolts back in the seat belt mounting holes. they have to be welded up so that you cant use them again. seems stupid IMO

There are ways around this that aren't so permanent. If you want to know PM me, I don't what to post up in there because I don't want the SPYs to know :banana:

well thats feked!! since when hast been so FORMAL??

we're just trying to keep the riff raff out. :banana:

edit: the 31 in that story does appear to be an import, bootlid, rear door and lack of b pillar (not just cut off, there wasnt one there, period) seem to give it away.

lol, up early dave

agreed, is HR31, also the badging gives it away (as ive not seen anyone go to the attempt of badging an aus 4 door as a Passage GT lol

any auto elec gurus want to give me a hand. for some wierd and wacky reason, my brake lights have stopped workin on my trailer. every other function on the 7 pin plug works (parkers, clearance lights, indicators, electric brakes) just not brake lights. couldnt find my test light, so was testing with a multimeter and couldnt get a reading at the plug on the back of the car

anyone want to come and suss it out for me? either that or if ya in the area im going to be ripping whats left outta the 31 so feel free to drop by

far out...if that happened in Aust, they would put you up in a nice hotel with at least 1 meal a day at the airlines expense.....happened to 3 of us in Sydney a few years ago and ended up in the Hilton overnight with all we could eat in their alacarte dining that night.

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • 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
