spotted:  

silver r33 gtst drifting around a corner at thornleigh maccas

not something smart to do but did look good and controlled =)

that would have been me , probably shouldnt have done that being double points and all, but couldnt resist . nice 34 man looks great

exiting corner and the rear slid out unexpected and the road was a little patchy and moist, so it oversteered heaps towards a parked truck so i counter steered and the car then did a 180 and slid straight into the kerb then onto the grass then all was lost as the grass was thick and wet aka slippery as ice. i basically blacked out after that..

once i got out i realised the car slid between 3 or 4 trees (quite a narrow gap) then got sideways and the rear (where the petrol tank and driver side wheel is) slammed into the tree prettty hard which spun the car the other way til eventually we stopped.

couldnt believe it. it's about as unlucky as u can get. basically dont know what to do or say. i just hope no one else loses their car like this..

front of the car is still fine except the front bar, but the impact with the tree on the rear ***ced everything up - chassis got bent but the front half -basically from the driver side up is fine, and the other side of the car is fine too. wheels were all pointing in diff directions except the front passenger side) that's all i saw in the dark til it got towed away.

sorry to hear rukus...you yourself sound pretty lucky.

hope ur ok.

yeah.

any deviation from the path it took on the grass could of been deadly..

if the tree hit a foot to the right, then i would of gotten slammed pretty hard, but i got lucky i suppose... :

now i just hope 'just cars' covers the car..

saw a black r33 gtst with gtr bodykit and some nice looking wheels (CRO22Z)... thought i would get to see the back end of the car for quite some time coz the cars on epping road at around 2pm today weren't moving at all for some reason... BUT the driver decided to put on a fabulous display of handbrake u-turn at one of the traffic light and went back the way he came...

my question is.... was that really necessary in front of all those cars???????????? (people in the next car were shaking their heads...)

good to see you both were able to walk away!  so sad that the line is in such a state, but its worth the price for both your lives....

be safe peeps!

ye i was going to put it up for sale on sunday.. didnt plan on losing it like this tho :

anyways, i think i might go for an r32 next. after driving a skyline, i dont think i can settle for just any old car :)

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
