Yeah this was me...

It was pretty bad, the 34 has seen better days. Lost control of the car at only about 50 on the round about.. Im still trying to figure out what happend.. if there was something like oil on the road or what. got mild concusion from the accident hitting my head on the b-pillar but Im all ok.

The 34 was smashed up pretty bad, both rims are bowed. the front suspension arms are all gone. the engine is good and and cooler.. the only thing that burst was the water resovior for the window washers. the rear right fender as seen better days.. The worst damange is the rear where the impact cut the fuel lines and all other lines back there alot of eletrical for some reason.. dont know why there was so much electircal wiring near the fuel lines on this car.. but they were all cut.. the fuel tank wasnt ruptured at all. and the exhaust system is fine.. with the the car on a hoist that night.. the steel undear the car is ripped.. actually torn into and I can see into parts of my boot from underneat. the estimated repair at the moment is around 15g and thats with second hand parts..

Just want to say there was a white R33 that stopped to help and a green 200sx. Thanks for stopping guys was really apprecaited..

Hey bro.. I will sms you my number..

I need help with parts mostly.. a rear halfcut is probably going to be needed.. so if you know anywhere to source parts that would be great man..

Cool cool... you at work today?

Ill try all the places I get my parts from and see how much they want for a rear cut, I doubt its going to be cheap though :) Will let you know

Thanks all for the well wishes.

Leech the car only had third party on it at that present time the switch over back to comp was not until 2 weeks.

No not at work today amaru.. The car is at Daves shop if you want to check it out.

I still dont understand what happend as I was only going at 50-60kms.. the car behind me said there were sparks coming from the rear rims.. yet both rear tires were fine.. so im at a loss.. there wasnt enough body roll for the rims to scrap..

Im not saying im the best driver in the world.. but Im used to throwing that car around alot and it felt completly different when this happned.. when it snaped back the lift side was thrown so hard it lifted the car off the ground for a moment and slammed into the railing.

the police at the scene stated that was not going very fast well withing the limit and they couldnt find the cause. I was hit with neg driver $150 fine.. not that they money makes any difference to the cost of repairing the car...

oh well live and let learn I guess..

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
