From another forum:

Well I dont know where... but the story (if true) was that the cop car had just over taken the semi and just pulled back in when they noticed an emu standing on the road, so the coppers braked to a stand still and the truckie had no where to go

you mate. are truely a f**k head.

I agree

^^^then wats up with the snow? ( excuse my stupidity)

The snow is in fact foam from the fire extinquishers that the QFRS would have used.

Lucky to survive if they did

Isnt the law to not stop for animals on the road anyway?

I hope all the people were ok. Cops might have been. They would have coped (pardon the pun) across a fair bit of surface area (their backs) would have been much like 'tower of terror' or something.

The truck driver, I dunno, the truck looks pretty bad.

The Emu, I dont care, they are nasty, ugly, pointless birds, and there are heaps of them.

yeah, law is to pwn any animals in your direct path.. but i think its safer to swerve / stop for an emu.. its likely to infilct a fair bit of damage to the car too.. problem is when u compare law to morals..

Snow....... It's foam, the fire dept use foam instead of water for these types of fires, can you see a fuel tank, no niether can I so I am assuming the fuel went everywhere, lucky it did not ignite if you ask me.......

Cops have freinds and family too, and nobody deserves to lose a loved one.

OK lets shead some truth on the story. Cop car was hit while stationary on the side of the road. Both officers were out of the car. Only the truckie was taken to hospital with non life threatening injurys. Got to love a good story though :wave: Emus :thumbsup:

Police estimate the truck hit the car at about 80kmhr. Police officers sh#t themselves in .5 second when they turned around and saw that! Have a number of friends in the QLD force and they all agree very lucky boys! Forgot to ask them where it was.

Cheers

Even though the truth has now been told. Personally, I would go for the emu over the truck. My ever so basic knowledge of pyhcis tells me, the truck has a f'load more inertia than the emu.

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
