Sorry to hear about the accident. Glad everyone's alright.

This accident sorta reminds me of the video question when going for your L's, where the motorbike comes from behind the truck at the intersection. Can never be too careful.

nah the intersection is further up when your coming out of Goonawarra. the first thing in my mind was the other person, i wouldnt be able to live with myself if she was injured badly and thank god she wasnt. ive got a very sore head and neck mainly because my head hit the side window. here is a pic:

woah big hit dude.... very lucky

yeah looking at the pic i know the one

thats the only good thing i can take out of that accident, but i definately would have preferred just to sell it though. im very lucky it hit me at the front because if i was a little more further ahead it would have hit my door and im sure i wouldnt be here right now.

Poor skyline :P. It looks like it was a daihatsu charade hit you (judging by the car on the tow truck). It always seems to be daihatsu charades in accidents....why is it that shitboxes always destroy nice cars.

The important thing is that your okay. And plus now you can buy back the wreck for a fraction of its real value and part it out and make yourself back some of the money you lost on the excess :P

that little daihatsu wasnt in the accident he was just a guy that stopped in his tow truck to give a hand, it was a subaru forrester that i hit, her car was down the other side of the embankment out of the photo on the right.

one thing id love to do is give a big shout out to the people that helped, a few of the guys helped direct traffic for a while they were fantastic.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
