Last night A ford falcon ute with an aluminum tray back and some form of signwriting down the tray reversed into my r32 gtr in Gymea Bay (Sutherland Shire, Sydney, NSW), they nearly killed my best mate in the passenger seat and have written off and destroyed my car. While the general assumption is skyline= stupid behaviour, this was not the case and I, as well as the police officers who attended the scene maintain that i was driving safely.

They reversed and t-boned me as i was passing by and then drove off before i could get their rego details, as the resulting slide and my mate bleeding profusely from the head was keeping me busy.

If anyone knows or has seen a white AU or BA Ford Falcon ute with an aluminum tray back, with smashed tail lights and a few dents in the back, in or around the Sutherland Shire, could you please take note of their number plate and pass it on to me. It would be much appreciated and would be a massive help.

Thankyou.

Nick.

that's terrible man, but in all honesty in these situations the best help is a police officer - i'd also perhaps contact a few panel n paint shops around the area?

tradies look after tradies usually but you never know - but with any luck the police will be able to find this prick, i hope your friend is ok...

if you are joking it is in pretty poor taste, and your from Melbourne so it seems unlikely you would know who it is. If it is not a joke and you actually do know the person responsible, please tell them that if they come to me before the cops find them i have no intention of pressing the hit and run and associated charges, i don't care if he was drunk, im not going to beat him up or anything, i just want my car to be fixed.

EDIT: After a PM user luckieee has said he was lying. Thanks heaps chief. Anyone out there seen this guys ute?

I'm in the shire so I'll keep an eye out. BTW, have you looked into the location of where the ute backed out from ? If it was from a house or shop maybe the cops can go in and ask some questions there. Unfortunately, what you've described is one of many possibilities on the road at the moment. Hope your mate's OK.

it was a public park unfortunately, i have been walking around the area as much as i can and might stake the park out next week. My mate is doing a lot better, im just happy he wasn't an inch taller or he would have a pretty jagged piece metal in his melon.

Local panel beaters, car spares shops (repco and supercheap) and wreckers have been asked to take the rego of anyone requesting a tail light for a falcon trayback, im hopeful but my chances aren't great.

I guess i will start looking at either parting out the car or selling it as a whole, its only body damage, the wheels weren't impacted and the engine is fine, just a nasty gouge in the passenger fender, completely smashed door and a good chunk of roof and the sides.

Thanks for keeping your eyes open and the positive comments guys, i hope luckieee wises up but he probably won't.

Hit me with a pm if you see any bent tray back utes and get their regos.

Nick.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
