About the s15 crash on gympie rd.

thanx, i could have got killed tho as i was in the passenger seat when the stationwagon hit us head on. but yeah, luckily walked away with a sore leg. haha

All i can say i was there the whole time and it was the stupid shit in the s15's fault, he was trying to slide.. failed terribly... i have many pics of this accident pulled over for an hour or so spoke to the lady who was in the falcon etc...

your mate is a K N O B.

if it is written off im going to try and get my rims back as i have the stock ones to swap them over...im yet to determine what ill do with them if i get them, if i buy a 32 gtr than ill put them on that if they fit, otherwise ill sell them off...as far as i know the rubber is in excellent condition aswell with plenty of tread

If your able to sell off any parts, let us know...

and if u havent told the insurance company about the change or mags/tyres... you might not then be convered under insurance as i'm sure you have to tell them about all changes made to the car.

that i'm not 100% sure but best to check up on that.

Some people have told me you have to, some said some things aren't compulsory to tell insurance companies such as headdecks, etc etc.

liam mate if your car is written off u will lose any parts u have put on it that are not on your insurance policy (not only to say not listing your mags or a sports exhaust or Bov etc etc can viod your insurance), You can buy the wreck back but whats the point of that by the looks of the pic's motor will be as good as a boat anchor :P & that only leaves other parts from it but ut will cost you, the normal procedure is for them to sell the wreck back to you @ the value of it if a wrecking yard was to buy it, I would be getting on the phone & start doing some checking....

ITS MIKE TOO BY THE WAY I DIDN"T LOG OUT FROM JAIMES ID

i know what it looked like, but purely it was an accident. yes, he was spinning his wheels, but not on purpose as u drive in the rain in a RWD turbo charged car, u just can not put ur foot down, can u. as soon as i started yellin in the car( tellin him he was spinnin the wheels, he paniced and put his foot on the brake and thats y the car started lookin its sliding sideways. then everything happened. we told all we could to the police and of course it has to be his fault.

i do feel sorry for the ppl involved coz they did not do anything wrong at all. luckily the lady was al right. so were the others.

can u send me some pics of it as i did not take any at all. just pm me if u dont mind.

i wouldnt call him a knob coz he did not do any stupid shit on purpose. but definitely he needs to learn how to drive in the rain specially in a high power car.

dont blame the lady if she is upset. i would be myself. but it just happened as it is now.

yeah, that blue s15 was my car til i sold it to a mate of mine two weeks ago. i was in his car when it happened.

yeah, thats what happens when an inexperience driver drives a turbo RWD car in the rain.lost traction and lost control of the car. totally write off.

Your mate is the second inexperienced person (from nudgee i presume) that i know of to write off a blue S15 200sx in the wet. Thats gotta tell you something about that type of car and inexperienced drivers.

cant agree with u more. s15s ( or any silvias) can be really dangerous to drive specially in the wet if u dont know what u r doin. if u drive the way u would in the dry condition( exactly what he did) in the wet, u r gone. as simple as that.

thats y i sold it and gettin a GTR.

i fail to see how you find it hard to get traction in the wet. i can drive my s13 which is set up to drift in the wet and i can get traction no problems, i can drive it safely in the wet with no hassle.

my skyline has in the vicinity of 350rwhp and this too i have no problem driving in the wet,

if i wanted to i can make my mums 00 pulsar wheelspin madly in the wet and get the tail out round corners, does this make a pulsar a bad car and a powerful car that is hard to drive in the wet? no it does not.

Inexperience and immaturity is a recipe for disaster...

As a matter of fact it seems that many ex-private school mummies boys should in fact be driving mums 4wd instead of having mummy buy them a relatively expensive and overly powerful vehicle...

Belagrion to compare you mums pulsar to this situation is like comparing chalk with shit...please put some perspective into the situation, at the end of the day it comes down to experience and maturity...and if I did see you doing the above in ya mums car I would be the first to bag you out :lol:

I would love to see some of these people actually go to a track and see how inexperienced they are in a controlled environment...

Liam sorry to here about your car, but I have to say insurance companies can be a real pain the ar$e...

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
