im getting over those southern cross stickers. there everywhere - all the cool kids are doing it. and those frangipani flower stickers. urgh.

i recon if you asked some of these yobbos what the stars are they'll just say its "Australia mate", they don't know its a constalation and i doubt they know that there are a few other flags in the southern hemisphere that have the southern cross in it, some of the pacific islands have it and everyone knows new zealand has it, so no its not distiguishable as Aussie, put the coat of arms on your car to show your pride or something, atleast nobody will laugh and say "hey, are you kiwi?"

dont get me started about the frangipanni stickers.....

Both the stickers are on every car in the Sutho shire when the car is driven by someone under 25.... atleast my gf has the brains not to put stupid flower on her car

Just some info on the bar from the photo of you car, if you have not all ready go back to the accident place and find the missing part of that front bar, you can get it plastic welded, the front bar cost around $2500 from japan as it looks like a TRD front bar.

Not only was he a VL driver.... but a HOLDEN one at that. Holden people are never happy drivers, but I guess if I drove a Holden I would be as angry.

Being that done that, my 1st car was my mum's VN, I was always angry when I'm behind the wheel of that thing seeing how it breaks down @ & requires me to restart the engine @ about every intersection when there are cars up my a*se beeping.

The frustration!!!

To the OP, the VL is at fault the fact that he did an hit & run already proves 50% of that

I will give you a tip that I have learnt from experience. I always get insurance before I even pick any new car up. even just get a quote for insurance.you ring, get quote, they send it out. this is valid for 30 days. basically a cover note. so if you got a quote, got smashed into an hour later, my understanding is you are covered.

without insurance you're fked. you can send him a letter of demand along with your repair quotes and your incident report number but he may just scrunch it up and put it in the bin. so then you have to go to small claims court (more time and money out of your own pocket) at court he may lie through his teeth, and given the damage is to the rear of his car, and the front of yours he may claim it's your fault and you may end up being directed to pay him. now lets say he does tell the truth and you do win and get awarded the money to fix your car (lets say $2000), the court will direct him to pay. he may still choose to be a fkwit and ignore the courts direction and still not pay. they certainly wont force him. so then you will have to keep chasing him for the money. (more time, stress, money).

my advice is get the repair quotes. send the letter of demand. if he refuses to do the right thing then just let it go and move on. get it fixed and put it out of your mind. taking him to small claims court will cost time, stress and money and is no way a guarantee of a result. the bottom line is, everyone should have comprehensive insurance. if you had that, you'd have no worries. :O

Agree with everything Beer Baron said, except I think it might at least be worth talking to your local court house about the options.

The fact he left the scene without stopping will go against him.

Thanks

Since no one was injured in the incident, don't put all your hopes on the police dude.

So he did a runner, what does that say about this dumb VL driver's morals?

If you know where the guy lives, then the best and fastest way to get the problem resolved

would be to get a few of your mates and go over to his home during dinner time for a chat.

Communication is the key to solving problems my friend. :down:

That's how my uncle got his compensation from some shifty bastard anyway.

leaving the scene of a accident carry's pretty hefty fines etc etc.

the cops should smash him, hopefully he be's a smart ass to the cops so they make sure he gets f**ked up

Sequential Process:-

A Hit and Run is against the law = leaving the scene of an accident etc

If someone does a hit & run on you and if you also have the perp's no. plate; even if you suffer a twinge...

1) it's best if you pull over to the side of the road (with safety)

2) get out and lie on the side of the road

3) someone will call an ambo

4) when an ambo gets called, the police have to attend

5) police have to follow up thoroughly any accident investigation

If however, you have alcohol in your system (through cough medicines, naturopathic meds, ETC, ETC) and the accident may not have been your fault, you will get charged as well. Best to remember that.

well considering he probably didn't go to the police station after the accident and tried to put the blame on you then its not like he can exactly say that you hit him but he didnt do anything about it. I believe you have a stronger case.

Also driving without insurance is fkn stupid. Like others have said you get 2 weeks free insurance before you have to pay. Now its just gonna be more of a fk around for you.

Last week my mates dad was drivin home after he bought a car and smashed it. He had no insurance what-so-ever so he has to pay for the lot out of his own pocket

any news on the VL driver mate ?

not really..

well my friend told his friend (a police officer) to help out but his friend (police guy) said it may take some time because the guy isnt from around my area so its harder. The cops have to go to the other station and talk to them or something? i cant remember i was for work sleepin when he called.

im buying parts already. got my smoked corner winkers and i have some dmax 15mm fenders comming but its really taking its time. sick of seeing my car look like shit because of some vl idiot...

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
