Sometimes people walk all over others too so don't go blaming yourself...

Really sorry about your car.. look forward to reading about your next project :blink:

Take care

stripped the shell today.........2way is ok...tailshaft...exaust....and the motor and everything attached is ok...motor cums out tomorro...gearbox is warped tho..get gear set out tomoro.....might put motor up for 4 sale if there is any interest.....

I know what its like to try and help someone really badly and they f**k your life up at the end of it, happened to me, but not quiet to that extreme.

The fire was hot enough to warp the gearbox (thick metal), but not the engine (thick) and exhaust (thin)??

So the fire fighters got it under control just in time.

On a good note, if it (engine) reached such high temperatures without warping, it re-forged itself f**king awesomely, it'll be well and truely capable of more boost.

If she's a crack addict, taking her to court for $50'000+ dollars is kind of pointless, and like Keets and Dirty 3 said, she's already in a f**ked up place.

actually the box has suived just the shifter melted down the box and i always think yhe worst..the whole motor and everthing on it survived ive stripped the whole lot through out the week...the fire wall didint burn f*k all,,its was just coverd in sooty black shit every where...plus the bonnet wasnt opended during the fire so no oxygen got in there to catch a light...the fire stared from the back...basicly just lost the shell seats and the ecu.......luckily the whole fuel system was braided and that goes to show how good braided lines are......the wholr lot will beup for sale soonish.....

actually my dad is to thank for the front of the car being saved found out after it happend he was out there in his jocks with a garden hose risking his life to save my motor...mum reckons the fireies where trying to shove him outa the way cause they thort it might explode but he was like get f**ked thats my boys motor under there...i hate to think what could have cum of that.....my dad is a hard flamin mongrel...

he was out there in his jocks with a garden hose risking his life to save my motor

Hahaha! Good job Dad, I would love to have seen him on the job.

Good to hear that the expensive stuff has survived.

I still think a c$#t punt is in order.

LOL thats kind of raunchy, a dude in his jocks, a garden hose and a Nissan quiet literally ON FIRE....ahem, sorry.

Good thing your fuel lines didnt go, the explosion would have finished the car and anything within 20 metres, including your Dad.

Stop talking about selling shit, you gotta keep it and make it all bad-ass again.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
