Man trapped under car in crash

tradesman has been seriously injured after he was pinned under a car driven by an alleged hoon, which spun out of control on a suburban street in Melbourne's north west.

The victim, in his forties, was building a fence at the Rokewood Crescent home, in Meadow Heights, when a p-plate driver lost control.

The Nissan Skyline mounted the footpath and slammed into the man, pinning him between the car and a truck parked on the driveway.

Emergency crews spent 45 minutes working to free the man in a delicate rescue operation.

Witnesses have told 7News the driver was performing burnouts and speeding along the road before losing control of the car.

Sergeant Dean Pickering said the 19-year-old p-plater was breaking the law simply by getting behind the wheel.

"It's a high-powered car. It's a car that's banned for probationary drivers. It's a fast car and there's no doubt in the world, it's not appropriate for somebody that's still learning to drive," he said.

Sgt Pickering said police had received complaints about a car being driven erratically in the area before the crash.

"At about that time, we've had reports of a Nissan Skyline being driven fairly erratically through the area.

"You can see what's happened...the car has mounted the footpath, has ended up through the front of this house, has hit the fence where this fellow was working. Unfortunately, he's been embedded under the car."

The victim was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital in a serious condition suffering from pelvic and spinal injuries.

Sgt Pickering slammed the stupidity of the driver, saying this type of behaviour is 'frustrating' and puts lives at risk.

"This is the sort of stuff that's really frustrating for us. It's not an accident, it's someone's behaviour that has caused something like this to happen," he said.

The 19-year-old driver, who escaped unharmed, is in police custody.

That's true Odium, just thought it was good to see the driver being portrayed as the one at fault, rather than the car... "It's a fast car and there's no doubt in the world, it's not appropriate for somebody that's still learning to drive.."

How much you want to bet it was some lebo as well. WTF is wrong with that side of town, seriously all full of f**kwits. So glad I don't own a skyline anymore :domokun:

I hardly see lebo's/wogs etc in these cars anymore, they all moved on to BMW 3 series with the hectic leather for the ladies, or VZ SV6 lol.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!

      Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.

      https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
