Hey Guys,

I got the call at 6am this morning, one of my cousins was killed in a car accident last night at around 11.30pm.

We dont have all the details yet but what I know is she was being driven home from a work christmas party and a drunk driver collided with them and killed her. The driver of the other car is in hospital with minor injuries.

Her son, 16 years of age has not had a dad since he was born and his mum was his life. Now he has nobody.

Please, everyone on SAU.. and everyone who reads this, dont drink and drive this holiday season. Its just much easier to catch a cab and not suffer the consequences of either dying, getting injured for the rest of your life.. or in this situation ruining lives of really nice people.

Condolences..

I've found it very hard without my dad around (died Nov. 21 2003, RIP dad..) and my mum and brother are all I have and am thankful for them..My feelings and those of my family reach out to you..

Poor fella, to have never known his dad and now his mum taken from him, near Christmas time too..The drunk bastard will now carry this on his conscience for the rest of his life, killing someone at such a time of year and leaving her only child behind..

Pentae, please seek some counselling for the poor 16-year old guy, or be there for him as his confidant or someone he can speak to, to empty his chest of his sorrows etc. I was suicidal when dad died, the things stopping me from going to the other side was the promise I had made while he was alive that I would take care of the family, and the school counsellors, my teachers, and my mum being there whenever I needed to talk..All in all, it will be a very hard time for this guy, so be there to help him through this pain :(

Merry Christmas, and please don't drink and drive this holiday season :(

That's horrible to hear. People that pay the ultimate sacrifices for someone else complete stupidity.

If you drink and drive, your not a bloody idiot, your a ****en idiot.

Now some poor kid has lost both his parents. Please think of other people's safety before you jump in a car. You might be willing to kill yourself, but others dont need to die.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

      The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.

      What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.

      Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
