On my way to an induction for my plumbing course this morning, driving along the eastern freeway at about 1:00pm I saw an Marone R33 rolled on its side. I was traveling inbound and it was on my side of the road. Scared the hell out of me. Looked like a pretty bad crash, i hope no one was hurt. Anyone know who it was?

lets not assume that it was because the person was speeding or doing something stupid straight away until more info has been given on the subject. hopefully it was due to the heavy bashing we got from the rain and not stupidity, unfortunate none the less

yeah i travelled down eastern at about 3:15pm today, and a 200sx [early model] took to the corner of the bridge strut... [large concrete square that suppotrs the bridge...] and yeah passenger side was crushed in, entire wriet off... saw the ambo there and they were just leaving as i rolled past....

hope its no one from here, or anyone they know...

the 200 was a dark green in color, couldn't see plates they look normal [as in vic roads]

i saw that too on my way home..didnt see any concrete though. i saw all the passenger side crushed and a massive FOR SALE 04XX XXX XXX on the rear window. looked like a bad crash and i hope no one was seriously injured

having seen so many crashes, i know once i get my skyline i will definately be a safe driver. If i didnt have to go to that induction i wouldnt have it was just to dangerous. I came straight home, didnt beat around the bush at all.

mate all i can say is, mine might be stock and i even had troubles keeping traction till 3rd sometimes 4th gear and this is shifting at 2500-2700 each time... mind u only thing i got is a pod, bov and suspension [shitty] but its better than stock...

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues
