Any idea what time those pics were taken? Well if that dude was becoming a stunt driver i think he'd be doing a good job...otherwise someone has to inform them the difference between road and footpath...actually lucky that no one was either pinned or run over... :P

wow, thats not good at all.

did it say in the other site how it got like that?

sigh, was that him smacking his head against the wall at the end, cause if he wasnt doing it i wouldve done it to him.

having said that i hope he is ok, and as long as no one got hurt its just a silly mistake

PS: nice calais above :P i drive a holden too, but i like skylines so its ok :P

Sorry guys but this is bad for you all.

It's the last thing skyline drivers need, more bad publicity.

Only takes a few to ruin it for the rest.

If it was a Falcon, do you think anyone would even remember in a week?

holden/ford who cares really,this is a skyline forum posting about a skyline that didnt deserve this sort of ending silly silly ppl who disrespect such nice cars shouldnt own a car i reckon.

ease off and read his post again HOON69 - he wasn't bagging Skylines whatsoever. Get over yourself. What Chops said was 100% true.

I think you misread me, and I may have done the same to your post.

What I'm saying is that this kind of publicity is bad for the rest of you.

The police who no doubt attended the scene will remember that "stupid fool in a skyline who hit that wall" and possibly treat OTHER skyline drivers worse because of this incident.

If it was a "run of the mill car", would anyone even remember in a week?

How many cars are crashed daily? Can you remember the last one you saw?

I bet you can remember the last import you saw crashed though.

The only person disrespecting the car in those pics is the driver.

Hope this makes my opinion clearer.

Going on by another forum apparently plates were 2TIMER, if thats the case I remember seeing this car & it was an asian driver, so possibly he was just trying to park :). But, I agree with Chops' comments though & whats worse it happened in a busy area of town.

im gonna go against the grain and say that its not that bad.

did it make the news or anything? i think that if it didnt then its not too bad.

unlike the guy who got his skyline impounded under the new hoon laws, now that was in the paper etc. so i dont think that this will have that much of an effect, unless of course the driver was a wanker in which case the stereotype of a skyline driver may be tarnished somewhat.

i just hope everyone was ok... was everyone ok?

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
