If You Ever Needed A Good Reason To Get Full-comp...


Recommended Posts

Yeah, the guy in the echo did a right turn infront of us without checking to see if all lanes were clear. He drove into the front right of the BM which then put us onto a collision course with a power pole.

thats very strange....wonder if the kid is still alive or if his parents have killed him......

airbags didnt go off. wernt going fast enough... Insurance company will be doing all the 'cleaning'.. I have no sympathy for anyone his situation. If you are stupid enough to see the stakes are so high just to drive around then when you lose out you can deal with it. I took that same route in the DB9 a few weeks back... Imagine if he hit that.

thats not a pretty sight. yeah that particular section sees alot of accidents. ive had my fair share of close calls there.

the kid probably wanted to play some lan games..lol i dont think he will be playing or walking for a while when his parents have their way with his arse.

surprised the kid didnt do a runner..lol.

insurance is good.

  • 2 weeks later...

geez ouch... glad you guys are okay, had you been going quicker it could have been really bad... nice to have 1.5 tonnes of german engineered metal around you when sh!t like that happens... riding a motorbike FTL!

and what happened to teh mad dutton driving skillz... you should have yanked the handbrake and drifted around the pole;)

LOL @ the bimmer with kit pic

stupid unlicensed drivers....

hitting an E39 is bad enough (come near my M5 and all hell would have broken loose), but it could have been a LOT worse... could have been a P1 lambo or something. His life would have been financially ruined. He'll still be paying off the insurance company for years..

Now come on... what do you have knockoff E60 M5 wheels on the E39 for? :worship: If anything put a set of E39 M5 wheels on.... but make sure they are original :excl:

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
