ill keep this as basic as i can so not too much info is leaked out but ive heard different stories from different people and thought i needed to set things straight.

the first car went past and hit 'it'. i was the 2nd car and i saw it pretty clearly and steered clear and pulled over to help out the people in the first car. everyone knows what happened to the 3rd car.

everyone is fine.

cheers guys, and thanks to everyone that helped.

p.s. we went to check it out today and people had been there before and stripped a few parts off it. the deck and equalizer, e-way tag, steering wheel and battery.

A bad night for all involved.

Let me say this once, anyone talking specifics will have their posts deleted. Skylines have a bad enough image in the general publics eye, and eventhough the best efforts were made to avoid what happened, it did happen, and after shows like TodayTonight etc running almost weekly "hoon" stories this can easily be misunderstood and cast a bad shadow on us as a community. The only thing to come out of this whole event is that it doesnt matter how safe you think you are, you are not safe and anything can happen out there. Be careful. We dont want anymore "hoon" stories on the TV targeting imports.

No one was charged with ANYTHING on the night by police as the police agreed none of the drivers were at fault and we were lucky no one was hurt any worse than they were (all parties are now fine).

The only image this will bring is bad, which of course is some publicity we all dont need (notice all comments that are too direct have been deleted from the public areas).

Cheers

-Steve :nuke:

Edit: Imports dont need any more crap from the police/uneducated public than we already have so please keep in mind what ive said above.

Good thing that everyone was sticking to the speed limit.

i hardly think that censoring the issue is a good idea for future reference?

it there any particlar reason

no one did anything wrong as stated..

Easy - because the public wont believe what happened, and will think "bloody hoons" etc

We arent censoring the whole issue, hence this thread. The group made a decision and we are sticking by it - no details on a public forum. Surely you can understand that?

yeah i thought the same thing. To me censoring makes it look really suss...but thats just me, if you censor it you get like joe said, people spread stories that may not be true instead of knowing the facts.

obviously some people are completely oblivious and now you've piqued their curiosity

not making waves just trying to understand :(

    • I know right. It baffled me. There's no way when the engine is off, key is in ignition, (coils are dissconnected aswell), also my sound system was dissconnected (I don't run any audio capacitors), battery reads 12.2v and with the 10amp fuse blown I was measuring 24 to 30v. The reading would move a bit from 30v to 24v which was weird. I took a pic of the multi meter reading 🤣: (This is a brand new single channel digital oscilloscope that also has a multi meter mode).   Before when the fuse was blown, I had one lead on the 12v supply (green/white wires) of that brown relay and the other lead on the negative battery terminal. When I turned the key on ignition (engine off), it would read 30v. Then when I removed that relay from it's plug and tried putting ignition on again, it would read 12v, but I think it's because it can't turn on the ecu now that I removed it. I asked Chatgpt and this is what it had to say:   Not sure if those theories would be possible but, any auto sparkies here? welcome to confirm. 🤷‍♂️  No idea, but if it happens again, atleast I know what type of issue it is, unlike last few months where I didn't know what was causing all my issues and I was just taking stabs in the dark to figure out what type of problem it was. If it does happen again I'm going to investigate futher and trace back the source even more and inspect more circuits. I drove it to work this morning and the car drove and boosted fine. Yeah I was thinking the same, so I've imported my back up saved map (which is the map that I saved when it got done tuning) back onto my haltech with the base fuel pressure set to 43.5psi.
    • Yeh nice, if your in melbourne could you recommend any exhaust shops in the east that do a good job?
    • Sorry yes, this is what im after Also, that jpjdm site appears to be offline
    • @Duncan Random side note, did the cops give you the driver/owners details of the taxi and then did Shannons give you a refund of the excess once you supplied those details?
    • Yeah to be clear I'm not naive, I'm sure all insurance companies are a bunch of arseholes who pay people bonusses based on the value of genuine claims they avoid....I just don't want to go back to one that has personally f**ked me multiple times in the past
