So if anyone comes across an R32 shell let me know time to rebuild again

Cheers Peter

Faaark, dude I sugest getting a cage. Good your ok though.

glad your not too hurts

reality check for the kiddies out there looks like and impact speed of around 30-40 km/h

any faster and you would have been in hospital for a good deal of time and you lucky whatever you hit had a good diameter which helps in a lower speed impact

fatz

Dude ! Glad your ok. Went through something similar about a month ago sitting at an intersection waiting to turn right was hit head on by a Porsch running a red trying to avoid hitting a van doing a u turn at the lights ! Ambo, intesive care the works ! Concrete medium strip got him airbourne on impact, spun 180 and smashed into the back of my line above the rear right wheel ! So I know what youve gone through and as long as your ok the rest dont mean squat !

DAMN

you were very lucky to walk away from that without being hurt champ.

Glad your ok and good luck with the new build up :domokun:

I have a shell with a few goodies but crook motor in Tassie if your interested >_<

Cheers GMB

damn !!!!!!!!!!!

that is a pretty bad accident.....I think you and I both have used one of our nine lives.

I had an accident slightly worse than that a few years back....XF falcon rammed by corolla from behind at 80km/h + and the car flipped vertically and landed on a fence....it was a corolla sedan csi after the accident it looked like a chop top hatchback....

Were you shaking a bit when you got out of the car ??

I know I was....

Anyways at least your ok !!!!

Good to read your not too badly banged up. (it good to have a war story, but not have to tell it from a wheel chair) :bunny:

Bugger. Could well of been the country's quickest std RB20...what tyres were you running again? Your thing was half the reason i didnt bother running mine as i knew you were about to put down the numbers and fly the flag

Hope your recovery goes well....and a R32 shell comes your way soon!

Roy engine still running fine not even a water leak after that so when i get a new shell and slip in the running gear I'll try flying that flag again , and silver thanks man

Cheers Peter

P.S I might paint the next one red there suppose to be faster arnt they

wow...

can I ask where you're located to have frost on the road? I've never seen this in sydney..

also, before you ditch the car, please sell me the vents and other internal bits that you won't use in your next car.

glad you came out of it with a little rib pain only.

    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
