A mate of mine was telling me that there was a wrecked Black skyline near the mounts bay rd on the freeway about 3:00 ish.

From his description it sounds like an R33 about '94.

Any one else kow any details.

My mate believes that the front (left?) wheel had come off and the rest of the car ploughed into the road demoliting and tearing off the front end.

Of course he may just be yanking my chain.

Yupp there was indeed a mangled black r33 on the freeway thisarvo - didn't see the actual accident so no idea of how it happened, but got a decent view of the aftermath from work (in QV1).

From what I could see it looked like the front wheel (and perhaps part of the axel) had been ripped off completely, the front was completely destroyed.

It looked like a single car accident but can't say for sure because I couldn't see the point of impact from where I was.

apperently there was also a roll over on one of the freeway entry's, which if it was leach highway, wouldn't suprise me, it was covered in oil or petrol as i discovered when i had to make emergency use of the handbrake to get my work car to slide around the entry instead of plow understeering straight into the curb....

Hehe... I thought things were a little more slippery than usual this morning going down that on-ramp:

"Wheeeee.... oh.... ummm... uh oh... holy oil leak, Batman... UH OH.... aw cr@p!!!!"

Ditto on the FWD comments - I want 4wd! :uh-huh:

4wd would have only been marginally better if at all, rwd would have probally just resulted in looping it, oh well can't win them all..

i did notice there looked to be saw dust/sand all thew way down the ramp when i went past it heading south on the freeway this morn so maybe they actually figured it was worth checking out..

Yep I can also confirm this took place.... I am also in QV1 and had a great view of what was going on.... the traffic banked up all the way back to the leaderville train station on the freeway. It was what looked to be a black skyline but didnt look overly damaged but it did appear the wheel had come off causing a spin. He was blocking 3 lanes of the freeway whilst the toe truck tried to remove the car .... :)

Got on the freeway at Hay St just as it happen, ie. all the cars up to 200m ahead slammed on the skids just as I got there. The front tyre was cleared from the right lane just as I went past. It was a nice looking car, minutes earlier. It has a personalised black plate "AF 888" if anyone knows him. He seemed unhurt.

I am not sure which came first, the wheel coming off or the front right corner ploughing into the concrete barrier.

Haha got there relatively early for that Leach Hwy event. There was a nice sized pile up, 3-4 cars, when i got there and they had blocked off the onramp. Seems every1 coming down the ramp lost it and dam near ended up across the freeway. All they needed was some benny hill music.;)

      This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.

      Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?
