Hey guys, went to Fowles Auctions before and the car is still there, saw it up close and all I can say is F!@K ME!!!!!

Those pictures don't do any justice!!! The engine seems fine though, except the plenum has been smashed to smitherines....

The interior is a real mess, can't tell what is what!! The dashboard is just a pile of ruble!!!

Looks like the car hit a brick wall sideways, coz the whole driver's side is pushed right in...

Andrew you are one lucky young man!!!

I don't know if its sold, I think it might be on auction next week coz it was sitting in the area which they prepare cars for auction....

The engine seems fine but besides that, straight to scrap metal... Oh and the wing is still OK...

I have seen Andrew around driving a Camry with 17's and loward and the plates JET 33. The car was stuffed I looked at it at the crash site, he would of been doing about 100k befor the back come out and sent him flying into a brick wall. After it hit the gutter the car must of been air born for a few meters till hitting the wall as there was no skid marks after the gutter.

He is one lucky man

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
