yeah my brother-in-law rang me earlier and said he saw that yellow R34 and an identical Nismo kitted silver R34 in the same carpark at Golden Grove tonight! Apparently that yellow R34 has a Kansai sticker on it - I didn't realise Terry brought in whole cars.

Yeah thats my bros car, his username on here is FADIE too.

Ah yep, thats the one. He must not be on here very often.

Spotted [CELTS 5] (think thats it) again on sunday, was in the noarlunga cinema carpark, was around 3.10pm, was gone by 4.40pm. Dont think the owner is on here tho. Anyone know the owner of the maroon/pinky looking R33gts-t with [HADDAD] on the plates?. Used to work in colonnades some place i think..

Haddad is a family friend of mine, think he works/worked in a phone shop down there. He used to have those plates on a vs clubby.

Yes that seems to be matty. Keeping a low profile it seems.

SPOTTED another XR6t off the road for good up @ St Agnes Bus Depot my neighbor smashed his new 2 week old Xr6t possibly drink drinking, and i can tell you no sympathy from anyone in our street

will possibly be on the news tonight as camera crews were there this morning but i heard someone had to be cut out the car also there was half the car still @ the crash site

edit

just came back from ttp and saw a nice R34 with blitz sticker on front window and couple of cars up a R32 4door then on way home a nice silver R33 @ pelican plaza lights heading to city

na sorry we dont talk to them

there first weekend in the street they partied like it was 1999 :P didnt stop all night , the next weekend i wake @ 4am sunday morning and called the police

so basically there pretty inconsiderate

i was almost gunna ask him if he had an alarm lined up for it yet when i got home from taking Jema swimming there was stones all over the road from where his mate went up his driveway and did a little burnout on the stones basically adjacent our driveway, thats when i thought not telling you about an alarm i hope someone steals it then the very night well 1:30am he drives off from out front of his house and 15 mins theres all this commotion out the fron of his house then i see that wreckage the next day

my guess is that they were driving down NE rd and hit that bend @ 120+kph lost it and sideswiped the transadelaide gate i heard someone had to be cut out the car so Chris from tyreplus says

last night coming down stradbroke road past the morialta reserve, I saw a cop car, pissed myself cause I thought it was some sort of RBT/Defect station but I didnt really think so, slow down as I went passed and theres this guy lieing on the floor motionless and the cops just standing next to his car lookin at me like "oh I'll get you one day" and then as I turn right then left onto stradbroke road heading to coles I see an ambulance heading that way with no lights on. me thinks the fellow on the ground was dead. makes sense that the cops were there first.

The car was pulled up straight etc?

Maybe he stopped the car, got out and decided to die. :)

Usually they are pretty quick to shove sheets over people that have died. Most likely just out of it and waiting for the ambulance.

they usually send a meat truck to someone that has died not ambulances

i will be finding out a little more information about that XR6t that crashed yesterday as one of my mates mum was Head officer @ the scene

EDIT

found this on News.com.au

Meanwhile, a 21-year-old man driving a Ford XR6 hit a Stobie pole on North East Rd, St Agnes about 1.30am yesterday.

He was taken to Royal Adelaide Hospital with injuries to his head and legs.

Spotted a silver R33 S2 at the Goodwood KFC during lunch hour... He had his car parked beside mine... hehehe.. Anyone here?

Also spotted VANGE MOBILE today as he was enjoying the beautiful scene at the torrens river with someone special.... :) That probably explains why the "VANGE MOBILE SPOTTED THREAD" has been significantly reduced lately... :) lol Just kidding mate.. It's good to see ya around.

      Much less twat-tastic. CF wheels are too garish for civilised use.

      From there, as the manual says....assembly is the reverse of disassembly, no tricks worth mentioning Much better (for me)

      In my case, the standard wheel I had was in good condition but the buttons had more wear, so I swapped them across from the original wheel from the car. The plastic rear cover is held on by 4 tabs, and once the wiring is removed you can get access to 2 screws on each side the hold the buttons in From there I just swapped the wiring over. What was interesting is the standard style wheel is 2.0kg but the carbon fibre one is 50% heavier at 2.9kg. It even has a weight inside the wheel at the top to make up for some sort of imbalance in the design. weird

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stomp on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off
