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.

    • 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 🍻
