let me know :P

and don't forget to fill us in on what happens with the claim dude

Andrew :P

Ahhh that's sucks man.

My bro asked me last night if I knew you, he drove past in the yellow s15 while you were just about to be towed.

All the best with it. :)

hey m8.

yeah i saw him having a look ay. seen him driving around most mornings on my way to work heading over the bridge on safetybay rd.

Hey Mate

Sorry to hear about the accident. I suggest if you have full comp to go ahead and make a claim. I used to work as a claims officer at an insurance company and the easiest way for you to get your claim through is to put your claim in and pay the excess. Its a pretty straight forward claim in terms of whos at fault so when you make your claim and everything is sorted you will get your excess payment back to you. The quicker you make a claim the quicker you can have your car assessed. What people generally dont understand is that you cannot force another person to make a claim. If this person doesnt want to make a claim on their insurance he or she doesnt have to, not even the police can force that person, at best he or she might get charged wif some sort of driving offence. Hence why we have insurance so they can sort all that stuff for you, thats why we pay them money for... make them work for their money. Basically your car will get repaired or you get a payout and your insurance company will just bill the other party with a lump sum

hope that helps

cheers Calvin

hey m8 thanks for the advise. yeah i think i will do that ay. just sucks because the excess is over 2grand. will get on the phone to them tomorow. was going to do it friday but had my leaving drinks at work and got totally smashed lol needed cheering up ay! i got home and passed out by 7:30 lol was I feeling it yesterday. thats what happens whin you drink one and a half cartons by your self in 4 hours.

just got a call. the car is a write off. the repairer quoted 15 grand to fix the car and just car were only willing to spent 13 on the repairs because they can get 6000 for the wreck. so pissed off!!! not like i can afford a new one. the car is insured for 20500 but the assessor seems to think im only insured for just over 19 so i will be calling them up to sort that out. why the fu*k cant people look where they are going!!! all because of that wanker i have now lost my car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbsup:

May have spotted your car goin north on the fwy this morning. Really bad luck. Just make sure you keep the pressure on insurance, they are so dodgy when it comes to giving you cash. Good luck!

was in getting all of my things out of my car today while it was at wadleys panel beaters on Morgan road and the guys showed me someone’s black R33 that was written off. such a shame!!! had a really nice custom paint job on the motor and brembos. looks like they have done a fair bit of work on the car. they had gone over a bolder and smashed the engine or something. was that anyone on here?

Hey, i sent u a pm asking about parts. I wasnt sure if u were selling parts off or not. Bugger about ur car hey, 34s are so nice.

I'm glad u didnt go to Rocky smash, they're stupidly ridiculously expensive and unreasonable with insurance jobs and probably would have made u wait a month before they did anything.

U better stick with a Skyline tho for ur next car, or we'llk all disown u lol.

Good luck with everything, and could u plz reply to my message. Thankyou.

sorry to hear that dude, hopefully you will get things sorted out as soon as possible. Ive had my share of bad experience, and it

almost cost me to go thru all the shit. I was going for dinner with my girlfriend, we were driving on canning hwy when these bunch of

P plater kids crusing in their DAMN DAMN DAMN UGLY station wagons, all 'pimped' up aparently....... when we were at the lights i got

boxed in, while waiting for the lights to turn gree, this SOB behind me was like doing a burnout behind me, i was so damn scared his

foot might jsut slip off his brake and the car will just ram into mine. Lucky didnt happen but thses i really wanted to come down of the

car and smash their heads. :blink:

I was creeping through BP Rocko servo just then and there was another car in front of me as I was passing the small carpark bit. And another car was backing out of there and I was just like ohhh helllll no, watching him slowly reverse towards the drivers side door. I just kept my hand on the horn as there wasn't anything else I could do and the clown was still reversing into me, then he realised I was there and stopped about 2 inches away from my car.

Damn Rocko drivers. I was sh!tting myself. :happy:

Shit Magic, at least ur lucky! My friend just reversed into my car with his Van :D SOOO DEVO! My baby now has a big dent in her rear quarter panel. I'm sooo annoyed coz my car was soo straight before.

Whats up with people not looking where they are reversing into?!

Last time I was at sir Charles Gairdner Hospital taking my grandma for her medical check up (my skyline is being used as a patient transporter :P ), I was following some sh*tty Hyndai into the entrance to the vistor's car park & all of a sudden, he just stopped at the entrance & started reverseing right into my car without looking, luckly I had my distance & my horn was just fixed last week :woot:

& to the OP, sorry to hear, hope it goes well & you can get another skyline soon.

    • Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next. 
    • Once you learn it all, you find you do the job once. But this is the best way to learn, as you won't forget the lessons
    • Edit: It's now known as "R Performance" and is still in operation.
    • This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?
    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
