omg that happened to me once in my GT-t I was cruising along in the left hand lane (the main road in blacktown just after the pub & before the hospital and heading to the tafe) There was 3rd lane for people to turn right and out of nowhere a girl walks out in the middle of the road from between the cars queued up on the right, she was wearing sunnies and listening to her ipod crossing the road where she wasn't supposed to and not paying attention to anything, it all happened in a split second I braked honked my horn and she jumped back just in time, but not quick enough for her to get hit by my sidemirror

I stopped to see if she was okay and drove her home, luckily just a small bruise :)

scared the sh*t out of me

Accidents caused by someone else’s bad driving that doesn’t affect them are awesome.

I was in my 88 magna (my old daily) on the Pacific Highway in Chatswood a few years back. I was heading north in the right lane and was over taking someone sitting in the Railway Street turning shoulder (he was turning across southbound Pacific Highway traffic into Railway Street). The clown swung left into my lane to turn right. I had a car next to me on my left, so pulling left to avoid the car now a foot in my lane a few meters ahead was not an option.

I braked, looked in my rear mirror and saw a Red P Plater in her dads E Class slam her brakes on. She managed to pull up, however the Mazda 6 behind her didn’t. The Merc was shunted and ended up with my towbar straight through its radiator. Both the Mazda and Merc were un-drivable and had to be towed. My tow bar was a little scratched and needed a new plastic cover.

Obviously the Mazda 6 was at fault for driving to close to person in front, but it shouldn’t have happened at all. The other car that avoided the whole thing probably didn’t even realize.

i agree with everything in this thread.

It shits me the most when people are in the right lane, they are going under the speed limit but cruising right next to the car to their left.

Also people that are constantly on the brakes when going down a slight slope.

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
