Just saw this on TV at work, missed most of it but saw what happen to be a Black R32 GTR or gtst with GTR kit, smashed. Plenty police lights and ambo's? Apparently a woman has died and her daughter is on life support.

Anyone know anything about it? Great for skyline rep again!

what the news reader did not say was: skyline, import, hi powered, p plater, godzilla, or that the car was speeding. Very unusal. I guess it is just bad luck.

Have a look at the bonnet. it has been mangalled. Poor ladie would have been torn to shreds. My heart goes out to her family and daughter.

They are gonna be bringing out some sort of speed limiter unit for cars to slow down young drivers it seems. 7 news will apparently have it on tonite as a special report....and I think last nights incident will probably be in it as well...

This occurred on Furlong Road infront of Sunshine Hospital, for those in the western suburbs - you will know the place.

I wouldn't be the one to place blame on the driver before any official report, as i know that road well - It isn't particularly safe for people trying to cross the road to the Hospital/Bus Stop inbetween pedestrian crossings which are spaced an easy 500m apart. A lot of people do this to save time.

- It is a 60 zone

- 2 lanes each direction

- Usually busy, but can be quiet on nights

I'm not placing blame on either party, but the damage to the R32 looks like a possibility of a high speed colision - so speed might be a factor?

This is a tragic accident - my condolences go out to the family of the deceased.

this is going to sound disrespectful but I dont see any pedestrian crossing in the above photo behind the car....

i used to jump the gates on the train, ride it for free. Then i got smacked with a $200 fine and these days, i just buy the tickets.

i feel for the families, but i just hope people dont jump to the conclusion that it was the drivers fault.

    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their reliability is proven, performance can be predictable, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
