Hey all,

Thought I might post up a pic of my car today. Had a guy pull out in front of me from a side street, trying to do a right hand turn. I had been following a car on the main road which turned left into the side street this guy was pulling out from. I suppose he assumed there were no cars behind the one turning left. I t-boned him. Quite minor really. I asked him if he would admit fault, which he would not. So got the cops down who fined him on the spot for a driving infringement after our respective stories had been told. haha.

Glad to hear you're okay and happier to hear the cops came down - normally it's not their duty to unless someone is injured or you suspect the other driver to be drunk. Hopefully you get it back looking better than ever ;)

Sorry to hear same, good thing you got the cops on your side and a report to prove it to your insurance company. Hope she comes back better than ever!

I should post my damage from PI ;)
WTF?

You open your mouth, now you need to tell all.

Hopefully nothing too serious.

Happened to me a couple of months ago, cops refused to come for the sake of a 'disagreement'. They said they can only come if someone was injured.
You should of said "alright i'll injure him, be here in 5"

ahahahhahahha thats a good call Jack ;) - should have done that Hus!

but yeah, its good the cops came - and i really hate idiots who are in the wrong but wont agree to it.....however I would think that going through insurance, he would have no choice anyway.....cos he did pull out instead of giving way....right?

Most insurance companies put in their insurance instructions, not to admit fault. Makes the whole accident scene so much harder than it needs to be.

Glad you got yours sorted quickly...

Cheers

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
