Saw a Maroon R32 GTST on the back of a truck only an hour or so ago.

It looked like it had rolled or possibly slid up on to its front right roof.

The front left mag was snapped arse end stoved in, front end stoved in, right rear quarter from the rear light had been peeled back to the rear window, with dirt marks all up the front guard and front pillar. (Rolled over obviously)

Suprised how well the cabin actually looks like it held the accident.

Tough little nuts the shells are on these Nissans :D

Any one know what happened.

Its a local car so possibly the owner is a member.

I'd like to know how that rear guard got peeled back to the rear window?!?!

It was a pretty stock R32 with what looked like suspension, exhaust, No FMIC and some strange cheapish looking I think 16" wheels.

I've seen a few cars with roll overs etc and the R32 definately held up damn well. The front pillar hardly budged. Obviously poped the rear window and shattered the fron but it was still intact.

jager..

You confused me.. :D

You said "he he just kidding" then went on to say "no one got hurt in the cabin"?

When did the car roll? The car I saw was on the back of a truck with freshish dirt all over it last saturday night.

No so long ago I saw a VP commodore flip on its roof. Those things are dangerous. The pillars caved in and the roof was basically level with the height of the doors. Luckly the drivers side had a little more room so he was ok.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
