I saw that on PF....apparently it wasn't an actual accident

just went and found the thread :(

here's what someone posted:

It was a demonstration put together by the department of transport in some eastern european country, can't remember which one. The staged the accident with all the local youths and learner drivers in attendance to show the dangers of speeding.

After the accident was staged, they cleared up all the remaining debris and secured the wreck to the tree (using the ropes you can see in some of the photos) to serve as a constant reminder...

Actually i saw it on www.wreckedexotics.com

Estonian Ford Escort (not a Cossie). 20 yr-old male driver doing 100mph in the wet hit a tree and was ejected from the car. Couple of broken bones (field in front of the car is full of long grass and it had been raining so the ground was nice and soft).

    • Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
    • You need to buy a Saab Matt, ours had a button that turned all the dash lights off. Any decent aftermarket dash has sufficient brightness control and a headlight input for day/night settings. None of which probably helps OP
    • Yeah thanks...i thought it would be alot more i dont know 馃槃 I saw some videos on converting push/pull and it seems you need to "drill" the hole for slave(master) cylinder and buy some converter kit. On that front yoke clip i did not even know that is a thing and i need to source that(custom shops do not do that?) But anyway thank you for the info
    • Not the headlight. It's the DRL that serves double duty as white and amber. Would be the easiest way to make it happen, if fitting a BCM was in any way an easy thing. Otherwise you'd do it with some relay logic and/or maybe some diodes.
    • Would require a very smart body control module which these cars are about 20 years to old to have
