I saw that on PF....apparently it wasn't an actual accident

just went and found the thread :(

here's what someone posted:

It was a demonstration put together by the department of transport in some eastern european country, can't remember which one. The staged the accident with all the local youths and learner drivers in attendance to show the dangers of speeding.

After the accident was staged, they cleared up all the remaining debris and secured the wreck to the tree (using the ropes you can see in some of the photos) to serve as a constant reminder...

Actually i saw it on www.wreckedexotics.com

Estonian Ford Escort (not a Cossie). 20 yr-old male driver doing 100mph in the wet hit a tree and was ejected from the car. Couple of broken bones (field in front of the car is full of long grass and it had been raining so the ground was nice and soft).

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
