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

      Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.

      I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.

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

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>

      I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.

      I have too much trauma from every skyline I've ever seen having crushed jack points/pinch welds lol.    Yep, works 100%, it's what I use when I'm using the quick jack. Don't know why I can't also bring myself to do the same thing when I'm using a jack. I blame the skyline PTSD.
