Then the car fell down. I was just screaming to get me out of the car.. I thought I would be stuck there forever hahaha

Hmm taht doesn't sound good .

I assume the car is rooted if the engine was with you in the front ?

Cheers

ken - nah they thought it was broken but its just bruising. Thank god.

So you trashed a car , mowed down 4 traffic poles , put the car on it's side , trapped with the engine for a while and you got ...

a gash in the neck.

Babe , buy yourself a lottery ticket. On second thoughts , don't bother. You have used up all your luck for a while.

Can't believe that , only back a week.

Cheers

Ken

ken - yep - it was sitting on my feet. All I could think was - you know those kids that get thier fingers stuck in drains and then they swell and have to get them cut out... well I thought of that and I just ripped my feet out, it took ages,... they were nicely wedged hahaha. The I jumped out the car window and vomited... lovley site really

I messaged paul in my shocked stupor hahahaha He lives close so I thought he might wanna come and see the carnage. But he didn't get back to me. He's prolly busy

He probably thought the same as me and thought you were joking.

hey russ - i wonder how that lump of shit is cooking... do you reckon its done yet hahaha

Ken - yep - I wish I had a video of it hahah. I didn't mow them down they were like bent or something hahaha  the guy whose fault it was was taken away by the police

Well at least you know the address and name he gives won't be false.

They will probably charge him with reckless or careless driving which hopefully means no excess increase for you.

The insurance company ain't gonna believe this !:D

Ken - the car is at the smash repairs who fixed it last time hahaha. I hope I can get my stereo out tomorrow.

Troy - yeah the hospital gave me some stuff.

If it's not on the insurance agreement as an extra then you are entitled to it . If it is then it's theres as they have to try and recoup as much as they can if it's written off. Sounds like that is going to be easy to decide if there is that much damage.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
