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?

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
