Sorry to hear about the accident dude...

Least u walked away from it..

I would say that is possibly fixable... depends how much you want to spend though and if its insured..

If u need a good panel beater send me a PM

from looking at ur second shot, seams like the reo has been chopped, maybe in japan, if thats the case you'll have a tuff time getting insurance to pay you out. they'll claim that the cut out caused a laxk of structural strength and void ur insurance.

ouch sorry to hear and see that one dude...However a decent panel shop will make short work out of that one...once all the damaged panels come off they can start work straightening it all out...you would be hard pressed to know if it ever had a hit.front enders are always more favourable than rear enders...chassis always twists in a rear ender...cars drive like a crab

Damn, I know how it is with lack of sleep and exam stress. 2 years ago I reversed into a car while parking, its like my brain didnt register that there was even a car behind me even though I had plainly seen the car :thanks:

Yeah main thing is if its insured?

Edited by Yawn

lol naa its not insured

i got money to fix it

just gotta have some expert opinions on weather or not it is worth it. from what i can tell the chassis is still in good condition.

for eveyrone now that only has 3rd party.. get full comp!

hooly crap dude. feel for ya. as Mav said least you walek away from it.

quick question though did the airbags pop out?

yeah they popped out

i cant remeber if it hit me in the face or not it happened so quick

but they stiiink so bad and they fill up the whole cabin with smoke.

scary stuff

dont reo bars usually get chopped to fit intercoolers? seeing as his car is NA i doubt someone tried fitting in a intercooler :rofl:

Bad luck mate, luckily you're alright.

Can we see pics of the audi? :P

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
