Hey all, hope you all had a better weekend than I did. Went to buy a car for the missus on the weekend from Melbourne, we set off at 4:00AM on Saturday morning, she lives in Kersbrook so we left there to go to mine so that Steve could be a lovely chap and pick us up. Unfortunately, on the way, some f**kstick thought it would be funny to lie a rubbish bin a few meters after a blind corner, so there I was, 4 in the morning, minding my own business then BANG! Copped a direct hit on the car, shit loads of damage, front bar/lip, front drivers quater, drivers door, rear drivers quater AND headlight, probably $4-5000 worth of damage and I'm pissed!

Went back today to talk to the owners, apparently it's a frequent occurance with assclowns driving through to place the bins (which are kept a few meters from the road) onto the road itself so that oncoming traffic hits them. Funny what people pass off as fun these days, I or my missus could have easily been killed had the bin gone through our windscreen...

Anyway onto the damage pics :)

Yeah been to the police, they didn't really give two shits. Cop lady said "you'll learn one day not to drive these cars" Not sure what she meant by that but thought it was a rude statement to make...

Carl, yeah it sucked ass, insurance will come to the party (spoke to them already) but I have to pay excess and I have to be without my car YET again, it's just really disheartened me!

BTW Steve, many thanks again buddy! Really appreciate it, both Lana and I :)

Maybe it's because I've destroyed the rear quarter on my car, but the damage on yours doesn't look too bad. Looks like another front bar would do it, or repair your one if it's fibreglass. Still, thats bullshit man, stupid people that do this shit need to have some fking sense belted into them.

This would piss me off more than that actual damage itself. Who the f**k does the bitch think she is, pretty much blaming the car you drive for you hitting a bin lying on the road. I am a very well mannered young lad when speaking to police officers, but that shit deserves a fking serving and a half whether shes a copper or not.

Did you politely remind her it is our choice what car we drive and instead of criticising it do her f**king job and stop idiots leaving bins across the road on blind corners?

that really sucks :blush: am glad youse are ok :)

stupid cop lady, obviously doesn't realise it has nothing

to do with what type of car you drive, has to do with wankers doing that and causing

accidents that shouldn't have happened :)

maybe she'll learn that when it happens to her

Andrew, the damage you can't really see in the pics but the headlight is scratched to all shit and cracked... there's $1500 already (Nissan and their Xenon lights!) Then there's the aluminium front quater, then the bin scraped all down the side of the car so once all is said and done, the damage will rack up to a fair bit I'd say. Will find out for sure on Tueday when I get to organise some quotes.

Ah ok yeah that'd do it, I didn't notice the guard + side scrapage. GODDAM on that headlight, thats crazy :blush:. I spose you'd want it all perfect but jesus for $1500 I'd leave the headlight til later :)

Most people that know me, I'm f**king ANAL about my cars, one little blemish and I have to get it fixed so I'd rather just fix everything and be done with it. Yeah it cost more but I get in the mindset if I don't do it now, I never will. I'm actually thinking of taking the car off the road for the next few monts, fixing the damage, doing turbos, clutch, dumps, computer/tune, etc so when it gets back on the road it will be a totally new car :)

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      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?
