Well, unfortunately my stagea got reversed into last night. At first it sounded like tools falling off a car, but it wasn't...

I was lucky enough to have remembered what car was parked in front of me when i arrived, and when i saw him speed off i knew it was same car. Went to neighbours house and yelled for 5 minutes to make myself heard (they were playing loud music). Once someone came out i got info out of the bloke that his cousin was the driver. Told him he had better call him back here as I don't want to cause trouble but i will if i have to.

Cousin arrives back 10 mins later claiming he didn't even see the car there..... anyhoo got all his details and have lodged it all with Just Car and got my 2 quotes done already. now to wait for the assessor on the 8th.

I am sooooo fkn pissed off, mainly because he sped away and if i didn't notice who it was i would have fk all chance of keeping my rating, Plus would have to pay excess etc. Apparently he only has a kiwi license as he has just moved here.

So here is what a VY commodore trayback does to the front of a stag. notice the beautiful hole the exhaust cut :|

One question to you all, do i have the opportunity to keep any parts they remove to replace ? i understand i should probably just ask the repairers, but i wanted to know if anyone else has been able to do this ?

Skippy did whisper in my ear *R34 front* but i don't think i have enough damage to justify it.

Thanks

Jez

Hots exhausts make great hole cutter's!

As for keeping any parts replaced yeah just ask the panel beater, couldnt see it being a problem as they would only turf it.

Farking people doing damage and driving of pisses me off, copped a big scrape down the 34 a few weeks back in a car park and the person just drove off.

LOL, I seriously doubt he had no idea he had done it, unless he's used to all those bumping and scraping noises because he does it on a regular basis and chooses to ignore it.

It sucks that people aren't just honest enough to cop the blame and face the consequences.

    • The part where you claim the car "is done" means you won't...
    • Johnny is sad now... Because you didn't get Bosch Motorsport ABS.  
    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box
