Hi guys,

Unless there was another crash that morning this one would have been me and my white 33. It was on ellenborough drive at the turnoff to barton hwy. I was going striaght down ellenborough toward the city and someone didnt see me coming and started to turn from ellenborough onto barton. I didn't have time to get out of the way. The other driver and I are fine. Bit of a sore neck for me today (day off work, woo!) but I'm trying not to think about the real issue here, the car! I'm not sure at this point if my baby will make it. Her front-right quarter is now gone. The wheel was twisted back in a way that no man should have to see. The door was crumpled in a bit as I had to barge against it to get out. I don't know how fixable any of it is so I'll just wait and hear from the insurance guys I spose.

:)

Adam.

Not good at all. Sounds like you weren't at fault which is one thing. But the main thing is you are and the others involved are OK - which I am glad to hear. :)

Well I found out today that the car is written off. It was an awesome car that treated me well. I'm still undecided as to whether I'll get another 'line striaght away. I might actually see what it's like to have some money in my pocket for a change and get something cheap (oh god what am I saying?).. I have every intention to get another one at some point though!

That is a shame mate

Looked like it was a nice ride

glad everyone was ok though and I hope that you don't have any hassles with insurance

see if you can buy the wreck back for a couple of grand and wreck it yourself. you will bake a bit of extra cash back that way.

Get another line dude :) they are quite cheap at the moment and you will hate anything else you get!

      R34 GTT Central Locking Pains

      Can't see that being a thing.

      R34 GTT Central Locking Pains

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      My fob has never worked, I once attempted to follow the procedure to re-key it, (I have other fobs for the car alarm thing in there). I actually have three of them. Do aftermarket alarms take over the pairing mechanism for central locking? Or do they piggyback off it? I suppose it depends on the system, right? I have four sets of keys/keyfobs. One definitely works, one I think works, one definitely doesn't work, and I have the OEM one that has never worked :p. Is this fixable/workable/whatever? I mean I know it's beyond "just clean it" but how *do* they get synced up?

      It's actually a really weird comparison... the MX5 is on another level and I kinda question this comparison at all. It'd be closer to compare it to a GTI/Golf/Hatch anything that kicks around. NC MX5 with a turbo has the right to go up with and beat the FD RX7 or 180SX or any other JDM hero car. That's the comparison that would really ruffle feathers.

      @MBS206 you need more shed in your life... What sort of car is your mates race car?  Hopefully he returns the favour when you're ready to get cracking on yours! None of my mates are into cars so I don't have to worry about that as a distraction thankfully.  I have enough other distractions so I don't need that one too!  Between working 6 days a week (5 1/2 really so 55 hours or so per week), both kids have basketball almost every week night (including Friday night in Melbourne - 2 hours away), my daughter plays netball as well, my sons footy has started now and I coach his under 14's side as well as I'm on the Footy club committee this year, I ride motorbikes every spare Sunday I can find, plus trying to be some sort of a husband.  Life is a busy little exercise at the moment!  I wish there were 8 or 9 days in a week sometimes!

      Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
