A 15 year old female passenger.. thats the icing. makes me want to cry ;)

This entire incident should be a big wake up call and remind all of us the enormous responsibility that comes with owning any performance car, not just a skyline.

I am sure the Father is wishing he never let his son drive the car, but it's something that is entirely out of his control and I send my condolances and prayers.

My heart goes out to the victims families and friends.

I cant imagine what the victoms went through at the time of the crash. The amount of damage that the car sustained just makes me sick.

My condolences go to the families and friends of the victoms.

Rest In Peace

Obviously no news about this accident is going to make it better, but how much worse can it get. 15 year old girl....she was just a baby.

Man this is ridiculous. The news I'm also hearing is that the father is overseas at the moment...take from that what you will.

Cheers

Just saw the News on 10. It was the lead story and the pics of the crash are absolutely horrific. No matter who is to blame, the loss of 3 lives is the focus of such a tragedy.

RIP.

A wake up call for all indeed.

My brother called me this morning and told me that EVLR34 had been in a serious accident. I came on here and I am absolutely shocked and saddened by this tragedy.

My utmost sympathy and feeling goes out to all the families of the friends of the people who passed away.

RIP

Just to let people know, police don't release names untill all families are notified. The names were released just after 3pm this afternoon

I feel for the families, and it's great to see such a great outpour of emotion from SAU.

The TRACK kids the TRACK.... NOT the suburbs.....

ouch,

im sitting here at work trying not to throw up. this seriously makes me feel ill.

im not going to be one of this "this is the consequence of their action" because no one deserves to die.. especially not like this :'(

[EDIT] (speculation removed)

also the 15 yr old is just a baby who was also about to bring another being into this world :D it truly is depressing when you hear of such terrible things happening to the best of us. :D

i send best wishes and condolences to the families, friends and anyone that this has effected in a way.

If anyone wants to talk feel free to msg me.. ill listen :)

*hugs* :'(

      RB gearbox options

      By rbs30 · Posted

      What is the go to gearbox these days for a RWD RB? Back in the day VG TT boxes were cheap and strong. Seems they are as expensive as an RB25 box these days. What are the options without remortgaging the house?

      Define "Nissan big brakes". You just mean standard R34 4 pots? And...it's not even the offset you need to worry about. It's really a detail of how much clearance there is between the caliper and the back of the spoke/face, which is affected more by the design of the spoke than it is by the offset. If you think about it....take any wheel, say a 19x8 that does fit and clears the caliper. Then add or subtract an inch of wheel on the outside, without changing anything else. You have changed the offset by half an inch, but not changed the clearance situation at all. Same for if you add or subtract an inch from the inside edge. The way for you to work this out is to take a wheel off the car, grab a straight edge and a ruler or two, and start to measure the distances from the wheel mounting face on the hub to the outer face of the caliper, and the outer diameter (that faces the barrel of the wheel) of the caliper. Armed with these dimensions and any other measurement that grabs your fancy while you are there, you can then go to the seller of the wheels and do the reverse measurements from the wheel's mounting face and see if there will be clearance to the caliper. There really should be. I have 17x8 RPF1s +35 clearing the caliper face by a finger tip. Those wheels do have pretty thin spokes with some curvature.... but then so do most wheels to suit Jap cars.

      So I’ve got a r34 sedan that I managed to get green stickered, meaning I need to go through government approved wof station for my car to be allowed back on the road for some reason my car is certed for 19x8 rims.. I need these wheels  does anyone know what offset will be fine to clear Nissan big brakes? I saw 35et for sale near me, I can’t drive the car to test fit or risk being fined ..   I searched heaps online couldn’t find anywhere..

      Okay, with all that being said about sloppy blowing from twins, I happily acknowledge the superiority of a single turbo setup on the RB; however, I still plan on double trouble.  I know the -9s were quite popular for some time because they seemed to meet that sweet spot between the -7s and 5s, would introducing VCAM and/or stroking to 2.8L provide the additional displacement/flow to push twins closer to the 500-600 goal?  Does it make more sense for a daily to just do an engine overhaul, slap some -7s on it and enjoy a bit more reliable power?  Has anyone driven a mine's overhauled and tuned engine?  I know they certainly don't approach the power numbers that you drag monsters do down under, but for daily street usage, I just want it to be fun and healthy.
