Hey every one,

I got in to a bit of trouble today on the coast.

I lost control of my 32 and took out two parked cars :)

The whole left front and rear quater look more like a crumpled beer can than a skyline.

But dont worrie you should see the other two cars. Ahhhhhhh i guess its time like these all you can do is look on the brighter side of life hey?

Its a good thing ive only had the car for 2 months which is not in my name yet nor do i have insurance, other wise i would be really screwed.

Please laugh with me at my expence its the only thing keeping my sane.

Daddy is not rich, im taking this one on the chin.

I went to over take a car that was doing about 20ks. When i hit boost there was another car that just turned, and is now heading straight on in front of me.

So when i pulled back into my lane (after over taking the slow one) i was doing about 70 and there was a car that stoped at a perdestrian crossing about 4 car lenghs infront of me. So i slamed on the brakes and the whole car drifted to the left and side swiped 2 parked cars.

Only having the car for 2 months im still getting the hang of driving a turbo.

Yeah i stoped, i had no other option. There were about 30 witnesses.

I work in a law office, so i know exactly what im in for. (good thing theres over time this weekend)

The other drivers have all my details, i guess its people like me that give good skyline citizens like you all a bad name to the public.

Im sorry :)

Well.... now we have nothing to rip into you about.... i was here for some entertainment :)

Haha no, well done that you stopped. You could have killed someone, i hope you realise that - learn from this one buddy, even if you know the law im sure you wont be able to get your way out of vehicular manslaughter or whatever the hell its called in Australia.

yep it takes a little practice untill you're able to not mash the brakes in a crash stop situation. hardwire the notion that you don't have abs into your head

    • It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.
    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
