Does anyone no anything about the Driver of the superchaged R33, Is he a member at all? I think the plates use to be PUNKED ?

don't know who the driver would have been, but it definately wasn't the bloke who owned it when it had the PUNKD plates.

he sold the car to whoever it was that was driving it on the day in question. didn't you say you had his details etc?

I was involved in a small accident, A non Turbo Black Nissan R33 was driving Down canterbury Road in Bayswater north, It over took my self and then over took a Blue VY Commodore, it pulled infront of the blue Commo at around 100kmh, we continued  heading down canterbury road and the Blue Commo was in front of me and the Black R33 was infront of the Blue Commo, The Commodore and the Black Nissan kind of pulled away from me

what's the speed limit there?

what rate were they 'kind of' pulling away?

i hope you weren't involved in a bit of a squirt that went wrong.

:D

he said they went ahead so i would say he wasnt...

theres a bodykit joint in keysborough i noticed the other day.... XXX Bodykits

yeah but if they were pulling away, how was he still so close that he hit....i think thats what ronin may have been getting at

If he got out and admitted fault in front of the guy in the commo then u have a witness, i think u have a strong case if the 33s diff is to blame. I dont see it hard proving it either.

If u decide to go with the Series one front end im selling a set of series one chrome headlights. PM me if your keen.

All the best!

Yes, the law isent that cut and clean when it come to rear ending a car.

If hes diff blew and locked the rear wheels and caused him to stop without the brake lights coming on even if you were a safe distance behind him the brake lights are meant to give u the indication he is stopping so u have a case to argue it was his fault especially if you have a witness (the commowhore driver). The diff locking up can be easy checked also

shit like this happens when u least expect it or when your speeding, ive had a couple of close calls when i first got my licence and since that ive taken it easy

anyway good luck to u trying to get the money outa the skyline driver

i think the commo driver can use this argument...but the 3rd car (the guy posting here) had the commo drivers brake lights to tell him to stop....unless the commo drivers diff blew up as well, i'd say you're out of luck unfortunately

its your own fault for driving an un-insured car. Many a skyline owner has been fkt over by driving uninsured cars, including myself!

Dont drive something you cant afford to insure!!! - I now pay $2200 a year insurance but at least i have piece of mind. Some of you may say 'aww na na i'm a sick driver etc, but what about in situations where its not your fault i.e this one?

if you cant afford to insure the car comprehensively and you still drive it your an idiot!

i second this comment. My insurance last year was 2400. Well worth the money to not be in this position.

sorry to hear about your accident though mate. It sucks when other ppl ruin it for you hey??

idiot should have payed the money and had his diff fixed properly

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
