FAT-26L <- Widebody GTR = D E A D


Recommended Posts

Some of u may have seen this around, pretty nice looking, sorry, was pretty nice looking. Its u t t e r l y dead.

Heading citybound,

Hume hyw,

Go past enfield,

come to an intersection with 7-11,

go past the speed cam on the opposite side

and here you will find the crash site.

We got there 20/30 sec after it happened, when they had just got out.

It would seem the driver was (est xxx/xxx, unles he had to dodge something, just an guess),

drifted out of the rather slight bend, up the gutter, taken out his engine bay with a brick fence, and then collected a pole with his rear drivers side 1/4. His axel was basicaly 45c, rear 1/4 so far in it wasn't funny, boot gone, all glass out, *all* pannels fully ****ed, this includes the roof being bent fully out.

Such a nice looking car, gone...He took the pole down, wires came down onto a tax and seems to have ripped off his taxi sign (die mofo taxi drivers die!), he was out going crazy, seemed as though he was , playing with the wires, falling ova etc etc...luckly he isn't dead from simply lifting the wires.

Every1 seemed to be ok, amazingly lucky they didn't collect the pole full on.

4/5 minutes and plenty of ambos/firefighters and hwy patrol and D's were on the scene.

As mentioned, was originally a nice pearl white, widebody r33 gtr.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
