Angry, Upset, Bite The Dust Hard !!!!


Recommended Posts

As an SAU VIC member, i have always try my best to behave on the road also try sending the message across to other import drivers.We love our car, I LOVE MY SKYLINE TO BITS but it happend. My car is a WROTE OFF.

While trying to help a friend out, while trying to comfort a friend, my Girlfriend always tell me that i love my friends more than her.........My FRIEND CRASHED MY CAR.

It was his birthday, he doesn't have a GF, no one was around..ect..he called me up while i was taking the girlfriend out for dinner,he asked if i could take him out for a coffee also discuss about how i told him there is a position vacancy at work to help his brother get a job. After i've dropped my GF off, i pick him up and we went for a coffee at the Glen. Then, he wanted to drive home so i let him and i jumped on the passenger side. When we got near his house, there was a curve and somehow i think he took the curve too fast ( because it happend within a flash ), all i remember was seeing the car going sideway and toward a POLE FAST.

I SCREAMED out his name LOUD, all i could think was my GF and my family, BANG.

I think i got a black out, until i realised what has happened, i undo my seat belt, jump out and ran around bare foot to see if my friend was alright or not. Lucky he was alright but his leg jamed as you could imagine the impact, i look down and there was fire under the front. I knew that i had the fire exstinguisher somewhere then click! It's under the driver seat which is now unaccessable. I had it there for track and other purpose but NEVER thought of this.

Lucky the fire die out as i was yelling out you got to get out of the car ( thank god ), also LUCKY that i was alright...well my whole body ache while i'm writing this. My feeling at the moment? I can not explain. SHIT part was i saved just enough money for a good alarm system to go for INSURANCE meaning car is NOT YET insure. When his MUM came around then SHE TOLD ME HE HAS NO LICENSE, he just lost it and didn't tell me.

I'm a blue collar worker so i'm so so sad that $20000 just got blew away, but i'm happy that we both are alright consider the car is WROTE OFF. Then again i'm worrying cos' my friend lost his license before that.

Sorry about the long post but i'm so sad, it's almost 3am but i couldn't sleep cos' i'm so sad. Also my body hurt, i've just apply for a purchasing position at work and i'm 80 percent believe that i'll get it. I planed out everything, gonna sell the car at the end of the year, save up and buy a GTR to keep for good( meaning no mods ).....just got CAM passport book in the mail. Looks like i'll just go around track on foot. God bless all of us, the SAU VIC members. Play it safe and sound, becareful guys, always have your seat belt on because it just saved one poor soul.

Right, well there goes another of nissan's finest. Are you alright though, i mean have you been to a doctor at all. you said you blacked out, i'm no doctor but that can be dangerous if you havent been checked out. That really blows what you "friend" did to your car, i cant believe he didnt tell you that he didnt have a licence, then have the nerve to ask to drive your car, that just fu(ked up.

I wish you the best in the future, and hope that somehow this mess with an uninsured car and a driver with no licence driving your car gets sorted out, you dont deserve to walk away from this with nothing, i think it would be a real shame if you did.

Good Luck

Dude sorry to hear that.

It's good that you are okay though.

In my opinion, and this may sound a bit harsh, but your mate owes you a car. That's only fair.

But I'm glad you are okay. I'd go see a doctor too. Concussion can come on late.

KOALA! dude im glad to hear ur ok!

that sux arse! ur car was in great nick too... man whats going to happen with ur car? how bad is it? is the chasis bent? i know what i would be doing to a friend that did that to me... altho i dont let my mates drive my car unless its the daewoo :rofl: id be taking them to a surgeon and selling a kidney and a limb or 2 until i had enough for a new car.

If he was a good friend I can't figure out why he did not tell you he had lost his licence. He sounds like a worm and you should squash it. Farkin get you line back on the road by A. asking him or his family to PAY all the damages B. Sue,Sue,Sue his ass...

Has he even offered to pay? If not all at least some of the damages.

Bad luck, you sound like a very forgiving person. All the best I hope it works out OK in the end.

** What were you doing driving around without insurance?

Im so sorry to hear that, that isn't good of your friend to drive your car with no lisence in the first place.

I was recently in an accident also, im thankful to god it didn't turn ugly.

Keep your head up and what doesn't kill you only makes you a stronger better person.

Take Care

Thank alot guys, i would not and could not blame my friend for anything really, its' just SHIT HAPPENED, i'm sure he doens't want it to happen either. I don't know if the car is repair able, it's sitting at PeterMack tow truck centre in Springvale and these guys are WELL KNOWN for taking shit off your car.

I've just rang Nigel up to see if he can arrange something and Nigel gonna get his friends to come around and take the car away from there. I think the engine still ok, box, diff, cooler...ect except for the panels and stuffs cos' they have to cut a few things to get my friend out.

Once again thank alot guy.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
