  1. question, do they brake for ANCAP test? or do they crash straight at 64km/h? generally speed limits are set 20km/h road design the road design limitation.
  2. if the roads were as wet as described from the event, then the oil will probably be on the surface of the water which would had been carried off or away from the surface run-off. if it was tar or something more resistant or tacky, it probably be on the road still. even then, unless your wheels are soaked in oil , it will probably be washed off the grooves of your tires as your wheels rotate. It is not as thought you are on 2 wheels, its pretty hard to get affected on 4 wheels as compared to 2 wheels (riders in here will know what i mean) to be able to really cause you such a major spin. also at what speed where you traveling at? Its hard to imagine wrecking a car so bad for it to be written off from traveling within the legal speed limit. for a car to spin out and crash and to total, you need to be traveling at a significant high speed (definitely not your 60km/h or even 70.) and driving over oil spilled road doesn't really affect the spin as much as you think it would, again unless your wheels are soaked, or the whole road is flooded with it. I say this with experience from advance driving courses where we drove past oil spilled roads, and we were doing 100km/h, and yes we manage to stop w/o spin-outs. i am unsure if i should be stern because of the many ambiguities surrounding what happened, but by giving you the benefit of doubt that you are telling the truth, i do feel for the lost of your car.
  3. what reading did you get???
  4. don't know you either. but Congrats
  5. black R34 GTT always parked on QUEENSBERRY STREET (north melb), with CUSTOM plates. H*X*R and is found on carsales LOL! i live 2 streets from ya
  6. of all the time i've been there, i had only lots opened up for me 2wice. so yeah, tell me' abt lots opening up. it is not abt price buddy (anyway it is cheap for me.) , its about the amount of TIME i can remain parked at the spot...i can easily spend more than 12hrs at the place. 4hrs definitely not long enough for me.

    Paintwork..

    Hiya people~ was wondering if anyone here has any recommendation for a respray, looking at MATT BLACK or TOP SECRET GOLD. preferably not too far from the city. -> idea in mind <- is to get an extra bonnet and trunk lid and have them sprayed in the above colours. so if any of you have a spare for a r34 GTT let me know please
  11. FINALLY got spotted but then again i always see you anyway was in a rush, was more concerned about hitting my car on the ditch on the way out :X
  12. cleared my EPA with a DB of 86/88 where 88 comes from the echo from backing off the accelerator.
  13. mostly in the city area or inner city... grey... someone spot me please
  14. I think you did right by posting the plates up! got to be aware and keep track of pple who drive like that.... ps: i am dying to be spotted... someone!!!!
  15. i just had my exhaust done today, from a kakimoto to a tanabe much quieter than the kakimoto, which was rated 93db, so yeah waiting for the appointment this friday to have it cleared
  16. Changed from a KAKIMOTO to a TANABE, sounds much quieter by the good ol' trusty ear.. quick test with the device, shows 85db and backing off hitting 86db... exact test this friday. wish me luck!
  17. loolollol what coincidence!!! which part of the road were they standing at? i think i drove past, and missed totally missed spoting them have you cleared the epa yet?
  18. congrats what colour is your R34Gtt?
  19. correct, 5" tip, i have a resonator. it is the backing off from the accelerator which creates echo off the 5" tip that causes the DB to shoot up
  20. Hi Jap Muscle~ I don't have a 300kw+ setup, mine is stock Not looking to readily modify the car as of yet, due to time restriction. other than a 3" turbo back piping with a 5" cannon at the end. I failed the noise emission because when backing off the accelerator it echos off the 5". so right now, something nice and would meet legal requirements would be splendid for me anyway UPDATES for the thread, have gave themufflerman a ring, and set a date to go down on wednesday... will be back to this thread for updates
  21. the diagram is accurate. anyway very good video!!!! thank you very much!!! i loved how u co-relate the RPM with the db reading. very nicely done!
  22. would it still be quiet at 4800 rpm? thats what rev we need to be at and measured for EPA
  23. thx for the advise alr33x anyway just got tested today... 91DB from a 5inch canon.. not bad imo... but yeah it got to go now am the lookout for an aftermarket one that will fit legal noise levels
  24. Hi people, if anyone is getting rid of their Fujitsubo Legalis R full exhaust system for R34 Gt-t. Please give me a PM Thanks!
