Please Help Me!

If anyone on here has any contacts on Bribie Island, Lives There, Visits there, whatever, and hears of kids stuffing up cars, PLEASE INFORM ME.

Below is the reason why.

Tonight myself and my mate decided to go for a leisurely cruise out to the beach. As we passed the BP on the big round-about on the way to Woorim (Bribie Island) we noticed a group of around 5 or 6 Teenagers hanging around outside the Civic video in that shopping centre complex, watching as cars went past. (we were the only cars heading TOWARDS the beach). Just up past the shops, i noticed something strange on the road, couldn't make out what it was, 'coz it sorta blended in, just looked like a spill of something across the road.

It turned out to be a fallen tree someone (I'm assuming the group of kids) had pulled across the road.

I Managed to hit it at around 60kph. It destroyed my brand new front bar, broke my indicator, i think it bent my front bar support, and god knows what damage it did to the suspension.

I waited around a while, checking out the damage etc, and decided to go home. on the way home there was 2 of the group walkin along the footpath just staring at the car grinning, and another 3 of them riding off on bikes quickly up a sidestreet... i wanted to chase them down but realised i have no proof or anything.

Went to the cop station to make a report out, and was more or less told to **** off, and that it wasn't their problem and to go home.

I'm sure it wouldn't have been their problem if we had left the log on the road another 30 seconds, so that the cop car that came flying past at around 170kph where the log was, about a minute after i hit it... wouldn't have been their problem at all would it :D What a mighty fine mess a cop car + log at 170kph would have made. They even had the nerve to beep and yell at us as they screamed past, because i was sitting on the side of the road with half my front bar hanging off, indicator broken and hazard lights on.

I can't make a claim on my insurance because i only just got the car back on tuesday last week from getting the front end redone due to an animal encounter ($6k worth of damage)

so please, if you hear ANYTHING from ANYONE about this, or know of someone who did it, etc etc, please let me know, i would be most grateful for your help everyone.

I feel so hollow inside, i'm seriously wondering if its worth having a skyline... in the 2 and a bit months i've owned it, this is the 2nd time its been damaged, not due to my fault!

sorry to hear about your incident as well. I know exactly how you feel. I had experienced having garbage bins laid out in the middle of road just outside my driveway and even once, a doublesize mattress! but i had been lucky enough to aviod them.

I was the mate following behind in my 200SX...

This shit really gets to me....

In the past couple of years I've had my car graffiti'd, broken into, number plates stolen, key'd, side swiped (fortunately not my 200), kangaroo jump out in front of me (again, fortunately at very low speed so didn't do any damage, just paint), had my friends cars jumped on (crushing the roof down to the seats and bonnet down to engine). And then they've all been keyed or broken into aswell.

Only common thing is that all the cars were nice cars. There really are some dead beats in this world.

I would seriously consider complaining about the police, no wonder there not well liked, cause all they do is sit on their arse all day long doing shit all, but of course there are the good cops out there. Good luck in getting them mate.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
