Hey guys me and my mates have organised a cruise for my brother who pasted away in a car accident on the 15/9/08 in a 180sx on commercial road.

The cruise will start off down south and head straight into the hills.

So far we have about 20 cars for sure and we started orgaising it yesterday.

2x r32 gtrs, 1 series 8 rx7, 2 rx3's, 1 180b sr20 powered, turbs 1200 and a couple of 33's to name a few.

Steven died in a import 180sx so lets all get together and cruise for someone who loved imports!

Cruise starts at 1:30 pm on march the 7th.

We are also trying to raise some money for his kids who have been left behind so they can try and have a good life without a dad with them. So if you can give a little please do. thanks guys

Message me for the location 0433174833

here's the flyer

ummm not 100% sure yet till we get the report, but we think he was speeding and went to over take some one so pulled out and there was an island there so he swerved to miss it and crashed into a stobby pole.

Ok iv.e been thinking about this all night and seriously think this thread should be shut

far be it for me to cast the first stone but c'mon a charity cruise for someone's stupidity

no child should have to go through life without a parent but he would still be here if he wasn't being silly

Do you know all the details? Its not like any cash is going to the guy who died, its going to his kids, and I think is a nice way for this guy to honor his brother.

I'm in 2 minds about this one :)

On one hand I see Steve's point in that if the aforementioned details as to how it happened are correct, then he paid a severe price for his stupidity & his family & friends are now suffering from it........and only big plus from all of this is that no innocent by-stander was taken down as well.

On the other hand, I see Ben's point of view and no matter how screwed up the circumstances were at the time, compassion for the guy's family & friends should be paramount right now (Steve, even Jesus showed compassion to those that had either stumbled or fallen).........based on that, I won't shut this down yet unless it gets silly in here.

Agreed Pete.

We don't know the full story. We all do stupid things ... for some people it cost them their lives. I hate hoons and drivers causing death, but there are always families who suffer on both sides of the coin.

      Out of curiosity, how do you cover up the inspection hole? Surely it doesn't sit open like that, right? With grime and dirt coming in and oil going out?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything
