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

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
