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?

      The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week

      Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.

      What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
