I have a few problems with this story:

1: - like the skyline wouldnt cain the WRX

2: - if the WRX was winning (ie the skyline was loosing) how did it swerve (obviously from behind - otherwise he wasnt loosing) and make the car in front loose control. I would have thought that only the car infront could make that move unless a car behind clips the rear bar.

3: - like the skyline wouldnt cain the WRX (i realise this piont is repeated, but its such a big error it deserves to be mentioned twice)

Thought I'd make a point here. If the guy in the Skyline was behind, but not a full car length behind, all he had to do was swerve & tap the other car. Generally the front end of a car is more stable at speed than the rear. Just look at some of the tin-top racing & 9 times out of 10 it's the car in front that goes into the bushes.

Alternatively they could have been slowing down from an even higher speed & the Skyline caught up.... If it was a Skyline, I'm still confused as to what's the truth here.

^^^^^

in the pictures on the link given it shows, a grey hound bus, a old camry, a smooshed rex and an ugly looking dark green soarer with an unpainted bodykit.

the only maroon car on there was the (now, convertible) camry.

anything that involves races in the paper, it seems like it HAS to be a skyline even if it isnt true.

cambodians and vietnamese's have been rival gangs up that way. so maybe one car was running from the other and thats why he smashed into the rex to take him out. or am i thinking to much to be a newspaper reporter....

You go to the top of the class Kye :) ........let me know if you're ever looking for a career change.

Wouldn't suprise me if that was spot on with all the stuff in the papers in the last fortnight about these 2 rivals.

gotta love some of the 1 eyed call's on here, 'sif a skyline can get beaten by a wrx' WTF is wrong with ppl these days, seriously YES a wrx can be faster then a skyline, and dont say anything bad about ns.com considering SAU REXNET AUSROTA ect ect ect are just as full of clueless ppl :)

i got no idea wats going on with the asian stuff, also did ppl also think that there were many cars that pulled over to help/look at the crash many imports heading to the drift praccy so the soarer pictured could have been anyones, cops most prob got there defect books out on anyone that tried to help.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      By Duncan · Posted

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
