Check this lot out. Those poor cars.

Guess soemone forgot to tie something down and someone else did not check properly. Maybe it was the same bloke on the ship who steals the stereos.

I would not be too concerned as this is rare but still costly if you only salvage say the wheel nuts. Worse than that would be sinking of a ship then total loss and not even a souvenir of the wheel nuts or pics or anything just empty bank balance. I think you will find insurance is very expensive and then the hoops you have to jump through to make a claim. "Well the ship may have sunk but may be refloated in the future so will have to wait" or" Get us three quotes on repairs and we will assess this one. Well it was on the high sees and not covered by insurance in Australia as such and you should call Japan or maybe Indonesia as closer to them at the time of the typhoon. If it was a cyclone then no problems."

Yes something big and heavy alright and would have cleared a path and got more momentum with each thump and roll of the ship. You would think they would have heard something but then what do you do to stop it?

yes the worst thing is if the ships sinks you are liable for general average and will have to pay part of the salvage cost for the ship and at the end you will get back a: nothing or b: a useless water damaged rusting car.

    • thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price  
    • Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?
    • Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
