I actually saw this accident in person. Not occur but the outcome of it.

Car is munted, and I wouldn't be surprised if the sump has a dent in it.

If you see where he hit, he was about 2 car widths even further off the road.

From what I can piece together he's come down the hill tithe roundabout, turned left, opened the throttle, stepped it WAYYY to far an it's shot him off the road, he munted another fence BADLY which has helped aim him straight up that concrete.

I shit you not, less then 50 meters behind that car is a roundabout that slows most of "the street racers" down to at least 50KMH.

Too much counter steering when torque got shot to the front wheels = car on barrier

Not good at all

I doubt it, car was sent back towards the road by another structural fence by the looksof it.

He's kinda lucky to be where he was, if he went through the first fence he hit he'd be a long long way down a gulley and most likely wouldn't have walked away unharmed.

I'll get a shot in about an hour when I head home.

Josh, do you know the shell cove exit off the freeway after Albion park (the brand new one)

If you do, as you're going south, take that exit and go left towards shell cove. The next roundabout is the one he crashed at. He was headed towards te freeway, and is about 50 meters out of the roundabout.

Yeah that's where Mani thought it was.

Sump would be cracked not dented in a GTR.

Correct, but if my car was sitting ontop of a concret barrier with some of the wheels fallin off, the damage to the sump is probarly going to be the least of my worries.

I lol'ed and nodded my head in agreeance.

Anyway, I remember when I went to Wakefield for an SAU track day with HamiltonAu in December 2011 there was a guy from Wollongong who took me for a passenger session in a midnight purple R33 that was in immaculate condition. Young guy in his 20's. Though he didn't seem like the type who would end up with his car over a concrete barrier as he didn't really push the car on the track.

OK cool.

Knew he'd switched to dark rims, didn't know what.

So who is it?

I NEED to know.

Gossipqueen.

Josh, could it have been the same one rolling through Robertson that time?

Be careful what you wish for?

That confirms my story below....

Pretty sure the guy from wollongong at the SAU track day had gold BBS rims with red center caps.

Barely even a skid mark...

Jarrad: I'm living in Shell Cove now (Again), up in my tiny little area we have 2x GTRs (Black, and a White one), I think it's 3 GTS-t (Excluding my two!), and I think it's 2x 180SX... And I'm in a very small little area up near Killelea. You just rarely see them.

Judging by how the road goes, and the how he went in to the fence etc, I think he's come down the hill (Where the white ute is coming down) and hit the throttle as he's turned left, around shes come and just kept sliding.

This section of road grip goes from awesome to bullshit low in the blink of an eye, there is a quarry road up near the top of the hill, and the B-Doubles consistently cover this road in rocks, and dust. It does get VERY slippery, although, this bottom corner isn't that bad unless you're REALLY up it. (Unlike the corner up the top of that hill)

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
