Such a shame for two young men to die.

But how could they be doing those speeds in that place at that time? Particularly with the fact a relative died there in similar circumstances.

Such a shame, such stupidity and such an unnecessary loss of life.

RIP.

i hate hearing about stuff like this i know what its like to be in a bad car accident when a cement truck ran a stop sign and we hit him at about 100km/h i was with my family but luckily we all survived. and being in one changes alot of things because you know exactly how easy they happen and how bad it is to actually be in one.

the sad thing is this isnt the last time we will hear about something like this.

R.I.P

doing 100kmp/h + in lygon street in the afternoon where your older brother died 6 years prior doing the same thing in a wrx?

WTF!

today tonight will have a field day with this one :laugh:

my condolences to the family and friends of the deceased...

whens it coming on, is today tonight coming on today is it because i want to watch it, i went to the house yesterday it was corrupted, pretty sad thing that happened and it he was only what 18-19yo, what life did he have but just growing up with the family as a young kid,

thanks for the support guys, its really good to ahve yous here,

cheers

ey GTRBOS....my condolences go out to you, the deceased and their families.

Comments aside, we should all take this as a lesson that that behaviour should stick to the track and only the track. We've all done something stupid with our cars no doubt and its very unfortunate that two lives were lost in this particular case.

Statistics say that 1 in 8 young male drivers die in road accidents....thats pretty much 1 person in your group of friends.

So sad, so f*kd. Lets all play it safe out there aiiite

Hope you are holding up well mate, keep ya head up :D

WTF? 1 in 8 young male drivers die on the road???? That sounds way too high. So out of the 42,000 SAU people, let's say 40,000 of them are guys.

That means 5,000 of us, on this forum, will die in car accidents, while we're "young" (I guess < 35 y.o.).

Actually, make that more than 5,000, as it's fair to say Skyline drivers have a higher probability of being in lethal accidents compared to the young male driver general population just by virtue of our cars being quick.

ey grant watch what your f**ken mouth, these guys here were ali and moeys best mates and they were killing themself at the funeral, mate wdf is wrong with wearing glasses, they have cried that much that around there eyes are f**ken black, nearly everyone there was wearing glasses and where the f*k are they posing? i dont see them posing, the one in the middle is the drivers younger brother, the one on the left rite beside him is the survivor in the crash as you can see his on crutches and couple of them in they are his cousins and the rest are couple of mates of his, and everyone said goodbye and its non of your f*king business so keep your ugly words to yourself and some respect buddy, may ali and moe RIP, it was very sad yesterday but i guess it was just meant to happen

was at fawkner cemetery doing work when they started coming in for the funeral

when you work as a monumnetal mason (stonemason) you know how bad and how easily it is that someone can lose there life in an accident

and how bad it is for the families and friends of those people

respects to all

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
