As promised i've done some digging... Thread is here:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Sm...Bad-t32289.html

Unfortunately most of the pics are gone. :(

Here is one of the many "chops" that resulted... i'll try track down the others.

I can assure you it was one of the more epic destructions of a car, but the fact he just didnt get it and/or care was the funny part.

The thread above gets funnier as you read the pages :cool:

There was also a funny MSN convo between MINES_DATSUN & Prank (forum owner)

Can be see here:

Enjoy the walk down memory lane :)

Christ! Who could even consider repairing that sorta damage! But really a 20yo in a gtr is one thing, but the fact that it was his 2nd car to write off while being a dick juz really ticks me off. It's cos of people like him that skyline drivers cop so much shit these days n y they have got the whole country driving like old ladies. Btw love the pic haha

ash while you are at it, dig up some of andru's old threads about crashing his car while racing a commodore, although he wasn't actually racing, the commodore just took off fast so he took off fast too to try to pull ahead, and then the guy in the commodore got cut and apparently rammed him off the road and then a while later he tried to sell the car for a stupid amount of money and people started posting links to all his crash threads. good times had by all

go to the 'options' button at the top of the first post, change the layout from 'outline' to 'standard'

*puts detective skills to work*

I think the "yellow GTR cut and shut" comments/threats that MINES_DATSUN made in his ICQ conversation with PranK was referring to ylwgtr's post in the bus stop crash thread:

This is a really stupid comment.......if you dont have anything nice to say...dont say anything...the guy has stacked his pride and joy he doesnt need to hear this sort of crap....you dont even know the full story....the car looks pretty bad but give me a pm i could possibly give you a chop out and give you a hand to fix it.....it looks like a cut and shut long rear...this aint that bad and if done properly would not be spotted and be strong....anyway i know how you feel i been there before

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.

      The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
