I think most people that know me know of my totally awesome dyno queen of a wagon that had to be jacked onto the RE dyno cos it was too low :( Anyway just when she was running nicley with the new engine and all the replacement engine bay bits this happens :huh: The other car turned right through the intersection infront of me and didn't give way, braked and swerved but still hit him square in the back wheel, mashed my car but his only had a few scratches. Suppose at least I did swerve and didn't hit him in the doors, could have been alot worse for his passenger.....

Anyway piccies and a squashed pod :(

ouch mate. are u ok??? nasty damage there. at least he/she was the one at fault

yeah its all ok (i was the passenger).

The crash was like a lesson on exactly the right thing to do during a traffic collision. Both parties were fairly calm, which is good it was a biiiig hit tho...

no one was hurt.

Atleast now you can take the money and buy a skyline, in fact now you can buy anything but a dunnydoor, my hatred of commodores dos'nt show does it?

Hopefully you were insured atleast.

Yeh the other car was a company car so insurance shouldn't be too much of a problem, hopefull I don't get stooged and get a decent payout considering i've just spent so much money on it. Anyway just waiting for a call from his insurance company today and we'll see how it goes.

P.S. If anyones got a shitter for sale I need something to get me to work and back for the time being. Think I might save up a bit more money and buy a discovery :)

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
