"A high-powered Holden Crewman ute" - I love how they always say "high powered" when there is a crash, just so that they can make out that people who drive cars with over 90kw are idiots and regularly crash...

I know someone who saw this for real after it happened, that picture doesnt do it any justice... Apparently it looked like there was no way anyone could have survived.

How you can crash that bad on Northbourne Ave is beyond me, its a 60km zone, there are multiple posted speed / red light cameras and its nearly always packed with traffic.

Wierd...

I dont get why people always say to go buy a lotto ticket after events like this, wouldnt you think that person used all their luck up surviving the crash lol.

:banana:

agreed

they would have no luck left for the rest of the year after surviving that. and how bad was their luck in the first place to end up like that? i'd go as far as to say, they have appauling luck.

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
