It would of been the single greatest day in your life tyson...but you missed it. well i guess there is always next life. (right now i know a bunch of people are wondering why i used the term life and not year allow me to present my case then critisize my selection of vocabulary) <based on tysons driving ability he has managed to trash his non turbo skyline just a month and a half after aquiring it... it begs the question how does one loose control of something with minimal power unless someone was doing something stupid. so based on that I am being brutally honest when it comes to a young driver and using a term that has a little more impact in the hopes that he learns how to drive and doesn't wind up missing next years SCC due to a fatal tree to the car like incident.> and with that oer the day was good lots of sexy lines and some really stylish mods to boot.

I accelerated too fast out of a roundabout when it was pelting down rain. I haven't had my license for long either so i had no idea that the amount of acceleration i did would've spun my car out. Oh and also i over corrected myself when i started sliding, otherwise theres a high possibility i wouldn't have crashed. Also i never drove in wet weather when on my Ls, my mum wouldn't let me because she said i was too 'unexperienced', i often argued "how the hell am i supposed to get experience if i never drive in wet weather?" but it never got me anywhere.

Either way i don't think its nice to assume i was doing something stupid when you don't know the whole story. I never do anything stupid in my car since its not cheap to fix nor was it cheap to buy.

Saying 'next life' to me, doesn't effect me at all. If i kill myself in an accident then so be it, at least i won't be alive to care.

this is a sensless statement; you don't know the circumstances of Tyson's 'accident'.. wet weather brings plenty of drivers undone; not all are "stupid". if you have to crap on someone, crap on his Mum for not ensuring he had time behind the wheel in the wet. she obviously knows there are special skills/knowledge required for wet weather driving.

What really happened was he clutch kicked it out on the exit of the roundabout in an attempt to bake 2nd and do some hectik dorifuto. Don't feel bad ive got a mate who in the first week of owning his car did a similar thing by the sounds on it on a roundabout in the wet and went into a fence. He also then backed into another fence on another date...... I don't talk to him much anymore.

I hear what your saying..... I wouldnt worry about what anyone says on this forum anyway mate. As long as your safe and didnt get hurt, thats all you need to worry about :P

P.S. - As silly as it seems, you might want to invest in a driver training course... They can be really fun and you get to know your car exceptionally well. I took my old R34 4-door out to the skid pad and learnt allot about safety.

Take care

      Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
