WTF...............................

Nice one Mark................

WTF was that car doing being driven on the fu5king road?

450+ rear wheel kilowatts with a racing bucket that would allow only the skinniest of asses to fit.

If you were in the passengers seat then you would be dead.

I will not say anymore, but I am very dissapointed, why the hell would you post this shit on a public forum and what posessed you to think that as the MCCR president you can set such a bad example?

This whole situation was bad enough to start with and you go and post about it

I never said i was a genius :)

Im an idiot for gettin in the car in te first place, i admit. in retrospect i prolly shouldnt have posted it in such a light hearted way.. but i was thanking **** i wasnt dead, and was just in one of those moods, that and the dfact the doctor gave me sumthing that made me rather trashed.

But, i can ASSURE YOU that i am not dead, i WAS in the passenger seat, and im rather sore..

as for the speed estimates, i honestly have no idea.. i know it was in 3rd gear on the power, and i was hanging onto the door/seat cos it was scaring the crap out of me.. i wasnt looking at the speedo..

when i saw the slide, i looked at the tree and said to myself '**** im the one thats gonna feel this, not the him'.

as for the rest of it, i didnt bring any shitfight here, certain people form tjhis club did, they love to have a dig, and well, the opportunity was there..

im not perfect, i do my fair share of dumb shit, if i had of praned it myself, i sure as hell wouldnt be laughing about it as id have cost myself $30k.

the REASON it was posted and the reason i put the pics up was "holy crap look at that cage and how it stopped me from being killed"

and for the retards saying 'that cage is a horrible design'

i DONT CARE what your theory is, it saved me, a cage that saved my fkn life in my book, i couldnt give a shit was keyboard mechanics say, it worked in THIS situation, and the dudes that installed it, certainly knew what they were doing. its no backyard job.. its made of VERY thick steel, and weighs an absulute tonne.

Lets just leave it at that. i dont expect the people that have issues with me to stick up for me, i dont even expect them to be fair to me. But i dont like shit being slung at me and people jumping to unreasonable conclusions.

Ive never been in an accident where i was driving, in 5 years of being behind the wheel of performance vehicles.

im an advocate of safety equipment, race days and advanced driver courses.

i admit i was a bit ofa dumbarse in the way i posted, but hey i ****ed up with that..

laters.

> b: if a driver is driving eratically and u dont feel safe, why not use the handbrake, its in a > position that the passenger can reach it, better to crash at say 80 k's than lose it at 180 > and still hit tree's at 120.

fair call and seems logical however it wont work at that speed, it has a split pin or some sort of mechanism so it cant be applied at that speed? does that sound correct?

can i just say well done on those huge darkies left on the road

sorry to who ever owned that crazy 33

and well done for giving it heaps.. thats what it was made for (not the hitting the tree part)

if no1 was seriously injured why not laugh it off instead of paying out on whoever was driving?

well we're glad ur still alive mark, but who was the driver responsible? And what of the compansation to the owner?

bcos its fckn irresposnsible. what if there was a family drivin home on the other lane and the r33 slide straight into it killin them. Cmon man use ur brain, its not cool.

agreed 100%

i didnt say hey kids heres sumthing cool to do..

it wasnt a smart thing to do, it could have beena lot worse. but every day one of you in your tail happy mostly illegally modified skylines hops in and boots it off at a set of lights, exceeded the speed limit, drifted a corner, power oversteered, did a demo or anything mildy silly (id reckon im safe to say thats the majority of people here), your doing somehting that potentially could have killed someone.

im only too familiar (i mean hell look how close the tre was to my seat) with irresponsible behaviour almost leading to certain disaster, so you dont need to pick me up on that..

that said, i agree that the manner in which i posted probably wasnt particularly smart, but i wasnt thinking all that well, and lets just say, this time round i was lucky, and its been a hell of a lesson..

well we're glad ur still alive mark, but who was the driver responsible? And what of the compansation to the owner?

the driver will remain nameless, nobody on these or any other internet forums knows them, and it wont really change anything if i told u.

compensation side of things, well thats between them and the owner of the car, nobody elses business really..

fair enough, just wanting to know (and I think I posted on mccr the same question I'm about to ask). Has the person responsible agreed that he will compensate the owner, that's all.

your's sincerely,

shan... huge porno fan :)

:slap: I'm glad you are ok Mark, it makes me very angry to realise that you should by all rights be DEAD.

I am familiar with that brand of rollcage and very happy the car in question had one, because that's one less funeral I have to attend.

I will say in your defence that I know you to be an honest person and that It was a shock inspired post that led to this and other forum threads. I wish you a full recovery and hope that your friend who shall remain nameless has learned a lesson or ten. I hope he doesn't try to break his new record of how many trees he can mow down!!

And for all of the guys that said pull the hand brake on, that was never going to happen, Imagine you pull the hand brake on as a passenger.......... you would never be welcome in another car as a passenger again and you would be forever dogged by the nic Hand brake Boy. :slap:

er.. yeah.. whoever said that well has absolutely no idea!! you hit the handbrake at that speed and happen to get a slight angle you'll roll the car easy as that.

Shows the benefits of a proper rollcage though.. Well mark, I don't know who you are - but hey, guess you learned the power of skyline the hard way!

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
