A P-plate driver has been charged following a pursuit in country Victoria.

A police divisional van at Rocheseter attempted to intercept the 1989 Nissan GTS coupe as it passed them at high speed on the Northern Highway shortly before 8pm.

The powerful Nissan reaches speeds close to 190kph before the pursuit ended five minutes after the pursuit began as the Nissan's driver slowed down at Echuca.

The 27-year-old driver, from Alfredton, was arrested without incident and his car impounded.

He was charged with reckless conduct likely to cause serious injury, failing to stop for police, speed dangerous, exceeding the speed limit, driving an unregistered vehicle and failing to display P-plates.

He was bailed to appear at the Echuca Magistrates Court on September 29 this year.

The guys a retard, but did they really need to mention that it was a Skyline? Would they have pointed out the car if it was a 1989 Magna?

Doesn't matter whether they mention Skyline or not. It's not gonna give name bad to anything.

There were a few other news before where 2 cars which is clearly mentioned in the news as high power Commodore had a drag racing on the street ended up one of them or both getting into accident. And there were other news where they mention the car involved is a Magna on another case.

It's just news. mentioning Skyline in it is a fact, not an attempt to tarnish anything.

lol after reading this it reminds me about that non turbo thread how people were saying turbos own NA's, and the skyline happens to be a NA :P

Any car can do that speed...they never mentioned how long it took him to get there :):D

I'm not overly worried as a tool is a tool regardless of what they drive- & I agree 190? wot happened to the speed cut so it maybe the news paper sensationalising to make themselves look better- not that its eva happened b4- its normally 2day-2nite who are the clueless ones who never let the facts get in the way of a good story not murdochs own baahahahahaha

story from last night, notice they mention "Honda Prelude" but only name the Suzuki by brand. I'm guessing it comes down purely to what's mentioned on the incident report.

lol suspicion of drag racing... both in their 20's at 2:30am heading away from the city down a backroad with single and double lane sections. yathink?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
