Life has a way of getting even, just thank your lucky stars that the two of you are well. It could have been a very bad story all for a stone chip. Your a very lucky man, how many 15 month olds can boast at their 21'st, 'I was sideways on a public road in an R33'.... :mellow:

Lucky your both ok.

But Im going to be harsh here and go out on a limb (yes luxo 4x4 owners are the worst, at least when rich people buy s-classes they dont need to know how to drive) anyway. Just think about this for one second. Had you had a deep breath, and not done anything, not given him the bird, not then retaliated when he did the same back (as he probably didnt realise what he did wrong) you wouldnt have been in a potenally life threathing position. Serious dude hey, does take a bit, but a bit of a chill pill would have avoided that situation... Not saying what the other guy did was right by a long way, he definately needs some form of punishment.

I can understand exactly how you feel man. A very similar thing happened to me once. I wasn't so lucky and ended up veering sideways across a medium strip at 110. I still beleive i was so lucky there was nothing coming the other way. Curse those cheap rear tyres! :mellow:

This dude in the VW will get what he deserves some day.

Sad to hear cuz ill keep a look out in sydney :mellow: if i see him ill give him a nice firm middle finger above steering wheel of vs wagon though i might be getting skyline soon so hopefully it freaks him out skylines are all gainst him good to see you and your daughter are alright!!!!!!!!! good to see......I to suffer from road rage problems i get worked up alot and follow them. :mad:

exactly why im trying to stop my wife retaliating in anyway to idiots on the road

you never know what other people are capable of

in your case, you would have been miles in front, if you had just let this idiot go

id learn from that

yep idiots for sure. It is REALLY f**king scary when you have someone so blinded by anger that they try and run you off the road. It happened to me too about a month ago.. I was being tailgated so I gave the bird. This pissed the guy off ect ect ect.

So if this happens to anyone out there do as ronin has the second time, shake your head and just ignore the dickheads, don't retalite - even though it's very difficult when your pissed off yourself.

Shouldn't the f**ker be running over his own kids, instead of yours?

At any rate, people should learn to just chill out and roll with it. While I think the Toe-rag driver is a complete f**k stain, if you go around prodding a rabid dog you should expect to get bitten.

That said, chances are I'd do the same as you in the same situation.

What's the speed limit on the Calder, anyway? And after your impact did he stop and exchange insurance details?

As a suggestion, I'd pull his plates from your post. While you're telling people you don't condone vigilante revenge its still not worth the risk in case it does happen and you've written this angry post.

to be honest as much as it's all well n good to say ronin shouldn't have retaliated, but still, you get your windscreen chipped, you're gonna be angry as!

that said, it's western society that we're so highly strung, we work our entire lives we never get a break for family time, we earn heaps of money then live our lives paying off houses and all sorts of other stuff we don't really need, we're all part of a machine, we eat our dinner in front of a tv,

sorry for the rant i recently went overseas and they live very different to us, a lot less stress, a lot more time taken to slow down and sniff the roses... different to how we live i guess...

wow.. i guess we can just thank god that you are both alive and well.

personally, if someone had put me or my 15month daughter in the danger you speak of.. god knows what i would do. son of rajab knows it wouldnt be pretty though.

so, he literally rammed you? that is a f**king disgrace.. i hope he gets his.

good to hear though that your alright mate.. thats the important thing.

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
    • You must be fun at parties.
