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.

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.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      By djr81 · Posted

      So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
