Heya Summoner!,

Don't know if this is an appropriate place to post this but are you OK? A close friend of mine who is part of the Commodore Car Club just sent me this.... Sad news mate. I had seen your car and it was sweet, hopefully not a write off!

Anyways if you get a chance please let us know what happened, my condolences to you!

i wish it was photoshopped. Was going over fwy on cedric st was in middle lane(middle and right can turn right), went to go into left lane checked over was a car there so didnt change lanes. Looked ahead the lights for turnning right had gone red, cars had stopped ran into back of 1.

http://www.hotperthcars.net/summoner/images/crash/ for the pics of the car.. /smaller/ dir for resized pics for modem users.

Assessors looking at it some time this week hopefully its not a write off..

dude, this is your 2nd ute right ? am I right to assume it's a "company car" of some sort ?

how's insurance going to look at the "new brakes" that _may_ have attributed to not being able to stop in time ??

Good luck anyway dude :D hope it turns out okay...

    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
    • You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though. 
    • Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?
    • It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!
    • As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
