Help,

Had the windscreen in my HR30 Passage smashed by something falling of a TOLL garbage truck today. Because whatever it was didn't actually smash through the screen and injure me those lovely people at TOLL won't pay a cent. Does anyone have a screen for an R30? This car is my daily driver and I need it to get to work. Any help greatly appreciated.

your windscreen is still stuffed though, why should the degree of damage dictate whether or not they are at fault? Sounds like you are being fobbed off. I wouldn't leave it at that. Report it to police, it's a reportable accident, then let TOLL try and argue their way out of it. Threaten to take it to small claims, if that fails to a newspaper or TV show etc.

Went to police, as recovering the object that struck me was impossible, the police said that I have no proof that the object came from the truck. The chances of it being a rock kicked up from the sealed main road would have to be 1 in a million, but if it went to court, they could argue that there's still that chance. Thankfully managed to find a second hand screen in Launceton, so hopefully, I'll get out of this for not too much $$$$. Does anyone know a good cheap windscreen installer?

Cheers,

So, is yours the two tone R30 with passage GT etc badges on it? I saw it parked in hobart (in the brick carpark next to the big argyle one) and was wondering if it was a tarted up local one or an import... Hard luck on the windscreen, at least its the same as the local one, right?

Yeah,

Thats my car, don't look too close at the paint. The black is my first attempt at spraying, and it aint to flash! :Oops: Anyway hopefully it will have a new screen tomorrow.

      Yeah that's true, but idk. Only a 6 month lifespan seems a little short. Oh also, is there a preferred way to send images? Like any sites? I'm used to just being able to upload them lol

      Hey, like MBS206 mentioned; I dropped off my short block and rotating assembly Monday. With a quick verification, he believes he can clear it up with just a hone and new rings but he will confirm once the rotating assembly is out. If I were you, I would either go stroker or just replace the block if it does need to be bored over to next size. Block is cheaper then forged pistons.

      Coc or nox of nissan skyline

      live in the UK, and London has introduced a Low Emission Zone (LEZ) that requires individuals to pay £13 if their car doesn’t meet the required emissions standards.   The standard specifies that NOx emissions must be less than 0.08 g/km (i.e., the vehicle must meet Euro 4 standards or better, which generally results in NOx levels of around 0.08 grams per kilometer).   I reached out to Nissan UK, and they advised me to contact Nissan Japan directly. Does anyone have contact details for Nissan Japan or any certifications of conformity that show the emission details or NOx levels for the RB25DET engine?   Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      these guys recommended to me and supplied custom 4 inch mufflers, couldn't be happier. They will spec a muffler to your preferred level of sound and know RB's well.  https://spmufflers.com.au/

      Yeah this used to happen to me every year and a quick call would at least raise the agreed value back up / reduce the premium, but usually both.    That said for the first time on the renewal this year our agreed values went up or stayed the same over the fleet and the premium came down so that was a nice surprise.
