last night about 9pm in moorabbin (chesterville Rd) i saw a white S2 R33 gtst Slamd into a poll it happend about 5mins before i went passed. was it anyone off here?? if so how did it happen??

Thats no good . Hope it wasnt 1 of ours.. Them pole can stuff up your whole weekend..

The guy that crashed is my friend, he's perfectly fine (thank god for airbags). He walked out without a scratch. What happened was the road was a bit slippery, car went on boost and kicked out, the guy didn't manage to recover it and smacked into the pole. I think he panicked and hit the accelerator instead of the brakes (I didn't want to get into too much detail with him).

They were on the way to go go-karting and thats when it happened. The thing is, the guy is 24, off his P's and only had the car for a year. I think if he was a hoon and practiced drifting, he would've recovered it, but i suppose shit just happens. The car is a complete write-off but i suppose the main thing is that hes fine and the night didn't end with us having to call his parents.

lucky for your friend, dam makes me think i should take some of kevs clases i got off my Ps and im 22 and reciently started to drive my skyline around allot more dont want some thing like that to happen to me but i done hoony stuff befor but doesnt make me a pro lolz,

How much of a difference would have AWD vs RWD in a situation like that helped? I've almost spun out in my car on rainy nights even driving pretty sedately, but I haven't driven a RWD Skyline in the wet before. Would the transfer of torque in that situation with all the tires already losing traction actually help much?

who was the dude wif the auto 33?? APS GTS i think the number plate was??

ATP GTS, his name is Adam, good friends with the guy who crashed. He was already at the go-kart track (i think) when the other guy crashed.

Advanced drivers course would definitely help. Driving a R33 gts-t in the wet is a nightmare. In the wet around corners hyundai excels get away from me lol, the back just steps out of line. (probably has a lot to do with my crappy suspension, but I'l definitely get into one of the driver dynamics courses, just so i can get some tips on safer driving in the wet.

Lol dude learn to not berry the right foot :(

Yeh there is definitely that, but it depends on what kind of road you're on, what kind of suspension you have and what type of tires you have. In the wet, i don't bury my right foot, the car slides on its own alot of the time (not powerslide), and the whole boost thing duznt make it any easier. But thanks for the constructive criticism. ;)

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
