I've been looking for more info on this all day - to no avail...

On the radio news this morning there was a story of a 'young man' driving a 'Nissan sportscar' and crashing at high speed - through a factory - taking out lights and factory stuff and whatnot - landing on its wheels and the guy getting out with na'er a scratch. Was in Scoresby.

Police were amazed he was so unhurt and were 'discussing' it with the driver.

Anyone else heard it or got any more info?

Yeah - is weird. I would have thought it would at least be in the AAP news briefs... they said it at every news from 7.30am onwards.

Perhaps it was some strange dream...

Surely someone else here listens to the radio news in the morning? Was Nova100.

yeah i heard it as well, kinda strange i just dismissed it as bs as they said it was a nissan sportscar... i was thinking, well which one... if someone did a little research they could pretty easily identify it, if they actually saw it. They could well have been talking about a pulsar or a maxima as they are *sporty*

Yeah it was a " Young driver in a high powered Nissan twin turbo 300ZX sportscar"...

Apparently he was excessively speeding and lost it, hit the curb and flew into the air, crashing right through the second story of a factory. He walked away from it but unfortunately his car didn't......and we wonder why cops pick on import drivers, cause of IDIOTS like this!!!

In order for the pics to show as a link under your username, you need to make sure it's a 'personal gallery'

If you have any more q's, please do it via PM or start a new thread. :D

yeah guys i was there....

went after mate who has a scanner rang me and told me where it was

basically a black 300zx TT was flying down the street at some ridiculous speed, crashed up the gutter, got massively airborne off a grassy hill in the factory's front garden, clipped the top of the office-level roof (a good 4m off the grass)

it then continued another 5 or 6m through the air and slammed through the corrugated sheetmetal wall of the wharehouse itself, continuing its flight path, hitting roof lighting, narrowly scraping massive steel pillars, and amazingly clearing all the heavy machinery on the floor that woulda made the landing nasty.

it eventually then fairly neatly crash landed in surprisingly good shape, the driver sustained just a few bruises really.....

the interesting thing is we heard from the 1st cop on the scene that there seems to have been a passenger in the car who fled the scene, as police dogs tracked a scent through the factory that led to a broken open side door....

freaky stuff !!!

crazy, i always thought 300zx's would fly pretty well.

I heard on the news he was going at least 200km/h and after he crashed he "allegedly" fled the scene of the accident.

Maybe he was hoping that no one would notice and he could come back later and pick his car up?

      Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ?

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
