so i wake up this morning to a message saying my poor 32 got smashed, this being from fellow SAU member shaz! so i think some vandals, or a small ding, shaz goes on to explain, she was in haundorf and some drunk idiot was on the wrong side of the road, going around a corner, the car in front stopped, as did shaz, the guy behind then plowed shaz up the ass at 70km/hr!definately not enjoyable for anyone!

now shazelik is still in hopsital waiting to see a specialist for her neck, she also needs a new rear bar for a 32! lol

anyway just putting it out there, have her in your thoughts and prayers, never good for this to happen to your pride and joy, but worst of all she is hurt, so jsut think of her! and show her some SAU love!

cheers boys n girls

jonny

yea funny story tho, she let someone from work take her car up the shop, just down the road, and he comes back with a gutter rashed f**ked up rim, so shaz is having no luck! but now everyone knows her life story! lol sorry shaz! but jokes aside, is a nice car, and she is a good friend, so thoughts and prayers everyone!

That's certainly bad luck, but if she was stationary I highly doubt the guy was doing 70km/hr at impact.

That's write off speed for both cars pure and simple.

60km/hr vs stationary car is enough speed to make a VL two feet shorter.

As always, and others have said, glad she's ok - no-one likes to hear of fellow enthusiasts being injured.

thanks guys got outta hospital last nite

had to have so many scans and xrays, they thought i had fractured my neck. but they think its ok. just have to go back for more scans over the next few weeks.

i'm really not sure how fast the guy hit me, he said he was doing 85 before he even braked n he was sitting pretty close. He told the cops about 70, but i really have no idea.

the rear bar is totally f**ked, the boot is all pushed up n won't shut n the drivers door won't close properly. haven't really looked at it closely, yet but i think the reason it doesn't look so bad is becoz he must have tried to swerve to miss me and hit the tow hook on the right hand side of the car. His car is totally stuffed tho.

if anyone knows of a cheap rear bar going around let me know.

Thanks!

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!

      I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.

      With ordering the belt, you're doing water pump and the idler and tensioner at the same time too yes?

      This is just a dumb way of keeping the wastegate closed to make more boost. Undo it and either follow the factory setup or redo it properly. Manual boost controllers just use a spring preload to determine when to close in response to boost pressure so it no longer vents to atmosphere.
