Was driving along norwest boulevard near castle hill and saw a older rex on its roof and the front of it was 10m away in the median strip. The fire and ambos were at the car im guessing trying to pull someone out. This reminds me of the EVLR34 accident earlier this week. The car was farked in half easily hope any one involved gets out ok but unlikely by the looks of things. Car is still there at the moment

so theres one which SPLIT on the norwest as well?

... 2 rexies down in the last 48 hrs?

you would think ppl would learn after recent incidents

before you know it, the government will ban all p platers/young drivers from driving..

not flaming but its very annoying at the things ppl do in the face of current events and yes, i am a p plater

This is unfortunately becoming an all too common occurance, especially given the tragic accident with EVLR34 earlier this week.

Without knowing the circumstances of the accident, I still hope that all drivers (young hoons in particular) learn something about the events of the last few days and realise that they're not untouchable in the confines of their cars and adjust their attitude to driving accordingly. Given the antics of a few P platers that I saw on the way to work this morning, I won't hold my breath for this to happen though...

Glad to hear that the occupants weren't seriously injured in this accident...at least as far as I'm aware in any case.

Shi*, I live just around the corner from here.... About 11:30 last night I heard a helicopter and went outside to have a look it was hovering right above norwest and I was thinking I wonder what has happened.... now I know.

That looks horrific...

I may be generalising that this person was not driving safely, but by the looks of the car and mess it made - they weren't.

Is that Norwest Blvd? If it is it was bound to happen sooner or later... :P

Some local's might remember the days when Norwest Blvd was brand new, and virtually no cars were on there....Back then the roundabouts on that road to me were a "challenge"....stupid hey. ;)

sure is, looks like it happened just outside the petrol station/carwash...

There are always people speeding down norwest and seeing how fast they can go through the roundabouts... I can't tell you how many times a car has tried to race me down that road!!!

The driver is apparently 30 years old and made it to hospital what happened after that I don't know....

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
