yeah i did, took my foot of the accelerator,

hare looked like he was gonna run off into the trees in stuff but then turned around and went straight for my car and i hit the thing :D

That sucks.,I hit a kangaroo once at 120kph on my way to Queensland, didnt do too much damage though,,it wasnt a big one (Thank God)..just a bit of damage on the front bumper, I was driving my friend's Maxima

hmm suicidal hare.

That sucks. i was driving today and my drivers side window motor broke and the glass just slipped through to the bottom of the door, i duno if it cracked but i cant drive no that the motor is gone :D

do you have to pay or will you go through insurance?

lol your front bar looks like mine kinda, which had pre existing damage, but in my ownership has collected : 1 cat, 3 bunnies and a roo @ 100 km/h (which in smashing the front bar more took out the RHS headlight but didn't damage anything else).

Sif replace the front bar, thats what colour coded gaffa tape was made for 8) Mine also has the added benefit that when you park on something too low like a kerb, the bottom of the front bar just bends, because it's already broken :D

I see your hare at 90km/h and raise you a coyote at 320km/h

clicky if you're not squeamish

LOL

Unlucky

P.S ..At least the Coyote was looking away wen u hit it

i hite a pretty big hare (probably about the size or a large male cat) at about 90kmh in my 33. did a lot less damage to the front bar than yours, but then when i had bought my front bar (bought it from a wreckers for $100 cause it was badly damaged) i added a heap more fibreglass to it to make it a heap stronger. i thought the bar was going to be stuffed because i was on the brakes as i had just pulled onto an off ramp and was slowing down from 110kmh. but got to where i was going and there was a few small cracks in the paint in the corners off the mouth of it.

so is the headlight actually stuffed or just the mounts?

If its just the mounts, get them fiberglassed or plastic welded. Better than paying for new xenons.

well my excess is only $500 for my insurance, and my crash reparier is organising the new headlight and everything but he dies plastic welding too, and just said iot would be much esier to replace it

holy shite batman!!!! :D

u using fibre glass copy front bar??

Wouldnt think a genuine bar/factory plastic would crack like that.

Ive seen cars running genuine kits and hit much bigger things and come out less worse for wear then that.

well the 34 is booked in for monday to start getting fixed :banana: getting a totally different front bar.......still a fibreglass one but hey my girl is gonna have a totally new look :P

Fk thats messy.!! I would have thought it would have smashed the front of the car in more however. I would hate to be the poor Bastard trying to clean and repair that one. Vomit like a bitch the whole way. The longer you leave it the worse its gonna stink !!!

    • I don’t really have any ideas how to set the timing on the CAS 😂, sounds like the top, sounds like it maybe misfiring as well as ticking,  got the box sorted 😌, must of been a air bubble on the clutch side
    • Use a 2' length of hose (that's 2 foot, not 2 inches) as a stethoscope to localise the source of the ticking. From cam covers? From exhaust or turbo manifold gasket? From injectors? From lower down in the engine? Etc. Use a timing light to set the timing. Put Redline Lightweight Shockproof in the box. It's not the very best thing for the box, but it will take a box that refuses to engage a gear with other oil, and make it engage a gear. I had to put it in when I installed the R33 box I have in my car. It would not select ANY gear when running. Smurf jizz made it work. That was >10 years ago and I still use it. I'm stuck with it now. Failing that - rebuild the box.
    • Well done Duncan. The fuel tank bulkhead lid is also in great condition (some of mine were stuffed). These are now out of production and good ones like that are becoming hard to come by.
    • Wow that's a steal, you've done well there.
