Was driving to the panel beaters when I saw an R32 ploughed into a pole on Mcintyre Rd. The car was black/grey and had P plates. It was quite a serious accident. Came back from the panel shop to see police cars, ambulances, and fire brigades. Saw a stretcher setup, but wasn't sure if there was anyone on it. My mom said she drove past and saw the car seat from the car, about 10m away; not sure how that happened though.

Does anyone know if the occupants of the car made it out alive?

"hey mayte watch dis!!!!!"

zuuuuu zuuu zuu tu tu tu screeeeeeeeechhhh CRASH!!!!

that is all

maybe they were driving safely, until some kent with an emo white r32 4 door came dosing out of nowhere on 2 wheels and pushed them into the pole...... :P

but in all seriousness - there are always more idiots on the roads when its wet - just yesterday some kent did a u-turn in front of me, and decided to slip the rear out across all 3 lanes on ferntree gully rd.......rain and bad weather brings out the dickheads

end of the day, most of us do it, and we all no wat can happen if we dont no our limits in our cars...

just be carefull guys cause that extra slide could mean ur life an worse a mates life in the passenger..

first of all before we go futher , the car was a R 32 , gtst , its dark blue, it hit a pole due to some one in front of him deciced to slam the brakes on and gave the driver of the blue skyline no option to move futher left , one problem there was a car slower than him already there , givin that the driver was going a little faster than all other poeple in front of him no choise than move again left resulting in striking the pole in the worst possible part of the car , hitting the drivers side wheel and the wheel went back right in the drivers foot area , trapping the driver for 2-3 hours untill cut out by fire mans , the car was totalled in this crash , the driver was taken to hospital with serious injiures, the driver could of slammed in the back of the car in front possible pussing them in front of a big truck comming the other way , i know this guy avoided massive crash with collideding with other cars and took full forse in the pole of his own car , i know this , i was right there 20 ft away , and i praise the driver for his actions for more injuires to others drivers , this guy is known to most of us , and i hope he has a speedy recovery in hospital , by the way the seat was still in the car , the fireman cut the drivers door off and placed in in front of the crash scene ,

enough jokes about this crash the guy is in SERIOUS condition in hosipital , in respect for family and freinds close to the driver !

He must have been doing a fair speed to cause so much damage, did his brakes fail???

why wasnt he travelling at the same speed as the traffic infront of him.??? Probably would have meant he could stop in plenty of time..I hope the guys alright.. but maybe it'll teach him some common sense travelling too close or travelling at a speed which will not enable you to stop in time to avoid an accident is your fault and not matter how he drove to avoid traffic its his fault.. still i hope he is alright.. but it might all remind us not to be in such a hurry all the time..

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.   EDIT:  Not my channel but i saw this and i know that is what i want (and i have exactly this)  
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
