Once again these f**kwits think it's acceptable to endanger our lives on the road.

When are the authorities going to review legislation and introduce harsher penalties that might actually deter these strett racers.... :(

mey, youd like to think so... they'll just defect more cars...

and beside no law will stop stupid people from doing stupid things...

I was driving home at about 10:10pm last night and had to turn off torrens road as it was shut down,

I work with a close friend of the victum, he left work (we do night shift) at about 12pm when he got a confirmed call that his friend was pronounced dead. WTF is it with WRX drivers? Seriously, one of my best friends was killed by a WRX driver in November 08' (that crash on Taplies hill road), the WRX and skyline on Magill road, and now 2 WRX's this time? WTF! All a bunch of c0ck sucking drop kicks. Low performance drivers in high performance cars.

R.I.P - and I hope a full and speedy recovery to the seriously injured female.

This goes to prove no matter how safe you play life - you still get fcuked over.

and beside no law will stop stupid people from doing stupid things...

Wanna bet? Start by restricting inexperienced drivers getting behind the wheel of high powered cars. They do it to motorcyclists, why not car drivers?

Low performance drivers + high performance cars = FAIL and/or DEATH

We can forget that crap argument about even a datto 1200 can cause death by speed. Its the power of cars like the WRX that can get an inexperienced driver into the danger zone faster and quicker than an NA 1.8lt 4 cylinder Astra for example.

    • You're already well into "gearbox is a consumable" territory there. A billet plate will either make it (effectively) 1% stronbger or make it last one more pass. At some point you'll probably tear 3rd gear into small chunks and regret all the life decisions that came before it.
    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
