Saw that Nene, is it that bad? Will he ever walk again?

I watched it on this link: http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id...099&rss=yes

Seems the media is blowing it out of proportion. It was during practice for an event, not at an event itself. From the footage I see, he didn't "crash" the truck, nor would I call it a hard landing. :) Broken back my arse. Looks like his back just went out from the not-so-hard landing due to a previous injury to his back I suspect?

Another celebrity crying like a baby? Suck it up princess, I've crashed worse from higher drops on my pitbike :)

either way Roo he hurt his back, he's a celebrity and he's gonna get plastered all over tv weather he likes it or not.

I'm sure if you f**ked up your back, weather it be due to a previous injury or not, you'd be in a fair bit of pain and need some kind of medical attention. Sometimes it doesn't matter How fast your goin. or how high you fall.. injuries can still be bad.

I'm just criticising the way it was advertised.

Monster truck crash = a bumpy ride

Broken back = spinal injury

;)

I fractured my cheek bone, crushed 3 fingers, and sliced my face when i went into a barbed wire fence.

Yeah well you know my story. I've crashed at the race track at high speeds and walked away without a scratch ... then I crash my bike on the road at 50kph and I break my shoulder ;) Go figure!

both wrists, most of my fingers, left thumb, right hand, left forearm 3 times, right forearm once, cracked 2 ribs (one in a mosh pit), left leg a handful of times, left ankle 3 times, right ankle twice, left foot twice (once in a pit), oh yeah, and broken a few toes too.

I've only ever had 2 nasty spills and both on bikes that required a couple of weeks in RAH. The worst of the 2 stacks was on my mates wet back lawn at approx 15kph......nearly lost my right leg from 10cm above the ankle..........like you said Roo, go figure! ;)

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
