thank god for that, another holden off the road :wacko:

This happened to me on the way to work 1 morning, hit a 100 zone in the rain hit a patch of water and aquaplained into a power poll. Luckly there was a police officer infront to back up my story that i wasn't speeding or doing anything wrong. I walked away from the crash but I learnt alot from the it which is probably the best outcome I could have hoped for.

Yeh I know, I could touch the power poll from where I was sitting. I had to spend about 3 hours in hospital just as precaution. Had a few cuts and some bruising but thats it.

where i come from, the people believe that if you're able to walk away from something life threatening, you'll be sure to strike lottery, so place some bets at the lotto =D

People are actually posting here? Lol.

Agreed

Always used to go to the middle of nowhere to have fun away from anyone who could get hurt by my stupidity, learnt my lesson the hard way, and drive nana-spec now. Unfamaliar road @ 100km/h. I knew it was twisty, so it's my fault for not going steadier but up to this point nothing sharp, and then...

It ain't worth it, trust me, take advice from those who know. Thankfully no-one was hurt, but due to $52,000 depreciation in 6 years and agreed value insurance, car's no more...

Slow down guys and girls... :D

OK, I'm in

Dickhead having a midlife crisis in a WRX pulled out of a t-junction ~10m in front of me. Car was a financial write off, but has since been put back on the road by another forum member, god bless him

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
