Wrecking Skyline R33 Gtst 1996 Series 2


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Well my beloved skyline was involved in a rather nasty accident yesterday. I was the not at fault driver but with my luck, the other driver has no insurance. What can I do? Strip the car and sell it I guess.

Damage is mainly to the rear of the passenger door. The back seats are buckled. Windows are smashed etc. Luckily no one in the car. I turned right on green arrow, she never saw her red light. I was in 2nd gear so boost didn't feel like coming on.

I'm putting it up here for parts. Basically everything inside out can go. If you want things tell me what you're after and ill get a price. It would be great if you're in Sydney coz you could come and check and pick out what you need. Motor, gearbox, wheels, exhaust, steering wheel, seats, springs, ecu. There's alot. Make offers. I might not start the stripping part until the police report comes back.

Just something on the legal side, I plan to sue once the police report comes in stating she was at fault. Am I required to keep the car in one piece?

yeh man, i'd take a crap load of photos of both the car and the accident site, and keep it in one piece for now until the police come back to you with thier report.... seeing as she has no insurance, she probably has no money either... so not sure how far sueing her will get you.... but still definatly do it... unfortunatly she might just be forced to give you $100 a month for the next 10 years, depending on her financial situation ... or something stupid like that

+1 on keeping the car in 1 piece til proceedings are done with the police etc.

However when you do part it out I'd be interested in the driver's side window motor and glass. Did it have the stock seats in it too? ;)

    • Yeah they sure are available for import now, its great news Matt, You need an import specialist insurer, nothing has really changed over the years about the mainstream insurance companies not touching them. I have my cars with Lumley (same group as NRMA etc) because they insure imports and have a good concept of "stable use" where as long as no more than 2 cars are being driven each day you can have them all on a good rate, I've also had no issues with claims through them. Note they won't insure a car if you take it to the track, even for an off track claim. Shannons are another option but I had a lot of trouble with their claims (they were happy to take the premiums, not so keen to pay out), and I'm sure there are other import specialists too 
    • I'm a lifelong home drummer, was in a couple of bands as a teenager/early 20's then moved to Japan and didn't play at all until 2019 when my missus and I were invited to check out the band room upstairs at a restaurant cafe here in JP. They had a full acoustic drum kit and they let me have a bash for about 20 mins. I went away from there wondering how I could not play for 19 years.... Missus bought me a e-drum kit a few weeks later (Yamaha DTX402) which is basic but lets me play at home in my tiny Japanese house.  Also have an Epiphone Les Paul and little Vox amp and delay pedal I bought for the missus because she wanted to learn to play the guitar, but she never got into it. That was about 8 years ago. I taught myself to play some 80's U2 song riffs like the Fly solo, etc and some other things but being a drummer I don't really have the dexterity in the fingers lol. Ham fisted if you will. So I kind of just mess around with the guitar rather than try to seriously play complete songs. My son on the other hand inherited all my side of the family's musical talent and is a brilliant classical pianist at 16 years old. He'll go on to do something in the music industry here for sure once he finished his schooling. I got him a Yamaha NU1XA hybrid piano earlier this year.
    • If the BOV is plumbed in as mentioned, like stock.... why exactly would it stall? It'd be like stock. Do stock cars stall with stock bovs?
    • You mean a rich spike, as the air has been metered multiple times due to the turbulent air, you end up injecting more fuel causing a momentary dip in torque and quite possibly a stall event. TL;DR, install a Haltech Elite or S3 or R3, convert to DBW, throw all ancient shit into the bin and enjoy the car.
