Was in Campbelfield going to work, turned into the street across from Maccas. The car just kicked out in the wet, I started to steer right but it just kept going left and into the pole outside the truck rental joint

f**kin extremely pissed!! The guys at Maccas in their Skylines were very helpful, but either way -- FML!!

If any of you guys that were there in your Skylines and saw it happen, could you PLEASE PM me your number? I may need it as a witness thing. Thanks for your help again fellas

ahh so you were the dude Muztek was talking about in members thread, they were there for the mt macedon run.

i know the roads were quite wet this mornin but how did it just spin out....sure you didn't clutch kick or give it a bit?

Yeah unfortunately it was me. Na I didn't do anything out of the usual man. I found there was diesel on the roads from the truck rental place outside. Can you link me to the thread they mentioned it? I'm on my iPhone and not too farmiliar with SAU. I wouldn't mind a witness or two

hey man i was there, we saw a cop car coming as we were leaving n i said to my mate..bet ya there going to that s15. if youd like i can witness for ya, i was the guy with the red hat on

I wanted a witness because the cops said "someone called and said you were doing burnout's" when u clearly wasn't. To the common person, the sound of tires screeching because the car has lost control will sound like a burnout. The guys in their skylines would have seen most of it take place and can verify that too, which would be an awesome help if need be

muztek can you pm your mobile number JUST in case they want a witness? Thanks again

Shame about the car mate but sorry I don't believe your story on how it happened. I'm thinking you saw a whole bunch of skylines and wanted to show off and it went really wrong. I'm sorry but a car just doesn't "kick out" without you making it.

This is what I think. I wasn't there and didn't see anything. Just thought I would make it clear just incase the fuzz get a read

COMP insurance at least?

You're certainly needing someone to witness that you weren't intentionally losing traction but...

as Peter asked above ^^^, do you have comprehensive insurance as well (for your car)?

from what i read in the members thread aint no accident.. :P

I'd say it was a crash.

And I'd also say that anyone willing to lie to the po-po to try and save the OPs bacon is a madman.

Sorry OP, nothing personal but I've been thru the ringer with the coppers many times and know how they operate. Anyone trying to help you will get taken down too.

Shouldn't matter, as long as you have comp and everythings set straight paperwork wise the car should be insured for this kind of thing. If you don't have comp... well it doesn't really matter how it happened, the car's gone.

Sure a car doesn't just jump into a pole from driving normally... but everyones showed off before and slipped, I know I have, fortunately there wasn't a pole in the way.

In stead of deciding if you're a good driver, a liar or not, I am so sorry that you have lost your S15. I f**king wept when my car was scratched on the front bumper in the drive way. I can't imagine how hard it would be and disappointed I would be in myself if I wrote my car off.

I hope everything works out!

Thanks for the support (sarcasm). To the guys that weren't there, please don't comment and give your bullshit insight. To those that were there, thanks for your real support as you would have noticed that I didn't overrev, try drifting, continue with the car while it was swinging out. One of the local workers in the area came to me as I was waiting to get picked up, and advised me that there is diesel on the road outside the truck-rental place and told me to take a photo of it. The police were pretty cool after I explained to them what happened and they said they won't bother with the court thing because of how it happened. I also didn't see the Skylines on the left until after I got out the car and saw a pack of guys running towards me.

On a side note to some of you clowns: When somebody's family member dies, would you say to them "I never liked him/her anyway?"

ps... erm.. I know this might be too early but I checked out your link for the sale and your rims are really nice... just putting it out there if you want to get rid of them (if they're still in good nick of course).

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
