Please be careful on the roads, guys. Freak accidents like this happen. I knew, not well, but knew the guy who died today. The panel beating shop he ran in the west was devastated when they heard the news. Did anyone see the accident?

I was caught in that traffic jam. Took me 2 hours to move 2.5 kms.

A truckie behind me got out and took a squirt next to his diesel tanks. Then a lady in front stopped in the emergency lane, opened both driver side doors and had a squat.

LOL she's clearly done this before. I wouldn't have thought of doing that myself.

Someone dies because instead of continuing on with their life they stopped to help someone...and people believe there's a god? If there is he/she ain't kind!

lol, people will say "god" works in mysterious ways.

Funny how 'God' to some people has become just something to blame things on when shit goes wrong, its pathetic.

RIP to the poor guy, and his family.

Did anyone else find it a bit insensitive that all the policeman was talking about was the traffic, when an innocent bloke has died!?

The clip went for 64 seconds and he commented on the traffic for the last 17 seconds, i guess you must have watched a different clip.

This is the second time i know of this happening in almost the same location, last time an axle broke on a truck, the tyre and axel bounced off the sound barrier and hit a sub contractor mowing the grass.

Not at all, what with free will and all. But a lack of divine intervention? Yes, he/she could cut someone a lttle slack maybe and prevent that from happening - given we hear of people claiming to have their prayers answered. And particularly when we have a heap of rules and morals dictating in his/her words what a good person is supposed to be - how unfortunate that judgement comes after the tyre flying at 90km/h to take you out on the way to helping someone.

    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
