Amen to that.

Terrible thing that happened and cant even imagine the amount of greif friends and family are feeling.

Even if the accident was the result of poor driving, no-one deserves to die this way in any circumstances.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? i woke up this morning, turned on the news. As soon as i spotted the car i felt sick straight away. Soon as the report was over, i jumped on here hoping that they got it wrong. I dont know what I expecting. The fact that it was a fellow SAU user just came as a real shock. The weird thing is, like the other two before me, i also have that car as my wallpaper. errie. Guys: i cant stress enough! take it easy on the roads now! expecially with the Christmas season coming up, we dont want to see any nasty x-mas presents. the police are going to be even more anal about skylines now.

RIP EVLR34

Drive Safe.

Terrible Tragedy...

I remember the first time I saw that car, it blew my mind (was working in a petrol station when it came in)... Amazing car...

It's so easy to say "It won't happen to me", but it can, and if you're not careful, probably will. I realy feel for his family and friends right now.

It is nice to see people sign up to offer their condolences the family and friends of those killed in this tradgedy.

Dont walk away from this scared of your skylines people. Walk away with respect for your skylines, the road rules, human life and your driving ability.

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
