Thanks for all the support fellas you guys are legends - there's no way that I could replace the car with anything but another Skyline. I was thinking about it all last night - I really should be angrier at the other driver, after all he did almost kill me "not noticing" the lights were Red. But, he'll pay for his mistakes in one way or the other - he had about 6 cops talking to him and only one talking to me. Doesn't that kind of behaviour get in to careless driving charges? Anyway, we're all OK and thats the main thing. Accidents happen. Time to move on...

that was such a mint car... has the insurance company told you yet if its a writeoff or if they'll give you the $$ to fix it? I dunno if it'll be quite the same if you fix it.

I want it to be a write-off, I don't believe it can be repaired to same standard (which was immaculate). I've added a couple more photos - what do you guys think? The roof has buckled in parts.

Also, on the current policy it's insured for 23k, on the renewal next month it's only 18k so it's just the right time. :D

Wow, just looked at the rest of the pics! Yeah 100%. If they don't write it of I'm monkey's uncle :D Just out of curiosity, who are you insured with? Is it agreed or market value? I got $28k market for mine after a lot of fighting. If u need any help let me know.

Justcar, Market Value I think. I should find out today.

Sorry to hear Greg.

I drove from Chadstone to Deer Park last night and saw no less than 8 accidents along the way - heaps of bad driving during the rain, some people should not have a licence if they can't drive in the wet, perhaps the basic licence test should include a SkidPan day?

Good luck with getting T2500 [or similar] on the road :D

Edit, actually the first crash was 2 streets away from my house - chadstone rd, chad shop cntr entrance intersection, a Mirage pointing in the wrong direction with the front half of the car mangled similar to yours...

What is it with people and accidents lately!

Eveyone is getting into prangs!

skylines are cursed melbourne wide I reckon! My mate who bought a 33GTR recently ran up the back of a taxi (nothing to do with speed, etc).. he'd only had it for a month!

p.s. while i'm here, time to hurl abuse from afar: good to see summer is kicking on well for you guys :D

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
