Yeah thats what i thought. But ker34 mentioned that the parents were told otherwise...

Bit hard to believe a car could bounce enough @ that speed to deploy airbags?

I don't think it was a case of "bouncing", but more one of suspension bottoming out hard enough to deploy the airbags..

There's a bump on South Western Hwy where Mudijong Rd hits it, if you're heading North and take the right hand lane past the turn off. I've hit that an 90kph in my 'line, something bottomed out, something went THUD. Nothing was broken and my non-existant airbags didn't deploy but fk, I have never taken that lane again :P

The only ways they can stop people crashing is if they were to limit the speed of all cars to like human walking speed of 4km/h.

Dude, you know the old vietnamese ladies are still going to crash... they cant see over the wheel man...lol :laugh:

Just a slight correction on your sig, by shitbox I meant 4cly, then there was 30% in family falcodores and 17% in 4wds

so for you sig its 80% in shit boxes including commodores, lol :D

If you have a fast car your gona speed for the thrill and fun of it.. If you have a piece of shit car your not going to because its gona probably make the car shitter then it already is.. or its just no fun coz its a shitbox lol..

I disagree.

I'm way more likely to thrash something I don't care about.

Any car can be fun to drive when you're pushing the limits, but only a nice car can still be fun when you're not.

Well at least the crash wouldn't result in serious accidents... can they?

It'll be like 2 cars crash into each at @ 4km/h & the car behind would be like, oh no! I'm slowly driving into the crash @ 4km/h & I don't have time to react & step on the brakes... :)

+1 to that, I reckon I'm alot more careless when I'm driving my mum's car.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • 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 🍻
