Airbags worked well enough to clock me in the chin ;p Seatbelts did their job admirably. I was glad I was in a Stagea when I had my accident, cos otherwise who knows how farked I'd be.

No parts, insurance asked for too much to buy back the wreck

i dunno the answer to that but my last car i smashed up and wrote off was a vl turbo and i bought it back for $400 from the insurance company after getting a payout and i sold off over 8K in parts, so i actually made heaps on that little effort hehe

what they askin for the stagea now then? surely the parts would equal over 5K EASY. upto around 10k worth even with all the rare bits and pieces :D

can someone please explain to me how the insurance company can claim they own your car after an accedent? they're paying out on a policy not buying your car

If you look in your policy (they all have it) you'll see that if they declare it a write off they then own it. They then recover money from selling it to someone...

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
