deepest condolences to her family and friends.

feel sorry for the parents and all these accidents are making me to think twice about getting a gtr.....

Nothing to do with the car; drink driving and acting stupid/impulsive actions.

'Sometimes in life we can take risks.....but there are some risks we should never take.'

this is one of many avoidable f*kk-upz; cant even call them 'accidents' anymore that i hear about nearly everyday. Words like P-plater/drunk and pole/tree seem to dominate news headlines as often as muslim and bombing.

I'm sorry to hear about this... ...And my condolences to you and everyone this affects...

I live not that far from the accident (on the street over the train tracks) and heard it happen... ...Never thought it be a Skyline... ...When I went for a jog I saw some people putting flowers up... ...I just kept going... ...I never know what to say to people in situations like this...

Leng is okay as far as I know. Saw him yesterday and he seemed fine, walking around, etc.

Hai's had an operation and doctors are allowing family and friends to see him, so I'm assuming he should be fine.

I didn't get the chance to know Sandra, but she seemed like a nice girl. She'll be missed.

it comes down to the IDIOT driver... no i dont care that his feelings might get hurt by that comment.... he drove whilst intoxicated and now a young girl is dead.

I'm not too sure who the driver is yet, but he isn't the owner of that car. Probably driving a GTR for the first time and not knowing how the 4wd system works...

I sometimes wonder why I get into a car with a guy who's been drinking behind the wheel, but that won't be happening again after what has happened. It's just stupid how someone has to die before realising.

Earlier this year ... I lost one of my close mates off another forum ...

Please Don't be stupid on the roads ... Keep it to the race track , drag strip

"Putting flowers on your mates coffin as it's being lowered into the ground is one of the hardest things a person will ever face in this life... and I do not wish this upon anyone to have to do ,

I still feel like a part of me is gone ... and it brings tears to my eyes writing this ... I was talking to my mate on the Sunday night about life and his plans with his car etc... then I get a call at work on Tuesday to tell me that my mate has passed away on monday morning .... it totally floored me ... I had to do a delivery for work about 30 mins drive from my work and I still dont remember how I drove there I have very little recolection of the drive , total shock...

I was in total shock the whole time leading up to my mates funeral I couldn't beleive it was true at all ... kept thinking it was one big joke or a prank or something ....

But at the cemetary as soon as I saw the wagon with my mates coffin in the back , the realisation sets in that you are never going to see the person ever again kills apart of you inside ... A part of me was lost that day ... and I cant stop thinking of all the good times ... like it is still all one bad dream ....

Just think ... it Could be you or one of your mates or someone elses loved one in a coffin for one second of bliss with the right foot ...

ask youself ... is it really worth it ?

zero tolerance to alcohol...ban the shit...what good is it???your thirsty drink water or soft drink...easy fixed

I agree.

The dangers of drink driving are obvious.

Zero tolerance for alcohol and driving will go a long way in eliminating the problem.

I don't drink and drive, the fact that some clown could get smashed and then clean me up at

an intersection annoys me.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?

      Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.

      So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!

      OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
