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.

Sam

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 am well aware as I did rant at him to buy a MX5, buy the 2.5 before he DIY'ed it, etc as well as do things to the holden. He will obtain a ND. It's the best of both worlds. They look great in person, definitely the best looking one. Just a matter of time now.

      This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.
