I read about it in the courier mail or sunny coast daily can't remember. Skyline hit a tree bent in half and driver and passenger walked away without a scratch. Was it anyone on the forums or does anyone know em. Seriouslly lucky people.

no one knows the situation so a bit harsh to just judge whatever happened they lucky

Yeh I see it all the time cars doing the speed limit and getting wrapped around trees for no reason.........Must have been some diesel on the road or something similar :(

Thats the joys of not being the person that it happened to......we get to judge.....The main thing is everyone got out alright......

the article actually said they were comming back from brissie and heading back home to gympie, when their car aquaplaned, and as a result smashed into a tree. the police didnt tell the reporter they suspected speeding as an issue.

so why crucify this driver, could have happened to anyone

Yea I didn't make the post to judge the people in the crash, just wondering if they were on here cause it was a seriously lucky escape. Pic looked intense car was nearly in half. Yea the article didn't say anything about speeding and it was probably raining at the time with the weather we've been having.

Your right...Would've been raining in order to provide water for the "Aqua Plane". ;)

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
