Was slipping and starting to rev out when I put my foot down in 4th at 3000rpm, slowly up to 3200 then bam.... 5k+

My turbo hasn't even woken up yet and it goes bye bye... *sigh*

Dam just saw that car crash in Oakleigh =[ i grew up in that place, it saddens me, especially knowing a fellow greek/greeks were killed =[

If the person who killed them had some kind of car like a skyline/supra etc, or was a p plater, that woulda been very very bad for all of us =s

that's what happens... the start slipping in the higher gears...

time for supercoppermix twin?

According to the article he hit a pedestrian before plowing into the car

Didn't see that in the footage?

I was thinking this too.

from what I can tell... Ran red light, hit falcon, hit pedestrian. Pedestrian on other side of the road was wife to the pedestrian that was hit.

That's what i was thinking, pedestrian hit after the crash.

Assuming the pedestrian was crossing the Bob Jane side of the intersection

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
