I was on the way home from work this arvo 'bout 2:00pm

Right outside the Gold Coast hospital front entrance was a Maroon R33 angled in toward the gutter

No front spoiler (anymore) , glass everywhere tow trucks, Ambo's, police

I couldn't see any other damaged car so i hope it was not a human that the car hit

Anyone else see it? or know the driver??

I often work at the qml lab just across the road from the hospital in southport and let me say what a f**khead you would have to be to race on that intersection

Wave, and I'll wave back from across the road :)

I concur with Ross' sentiments...

Hahha, work is tightarse and makes me stay at the "earls court motor inn" just across from the hospital aswell :lol:

Next time down there i'll remember to wave :D

Well looking on the bright side, if the rider did survive (how you would after hitting 3 cars while racing i dont know) he does not need to go far to get help!

Wont get much at GC base :lol: :lol: :lol:

um, guys, re-read what chaos wrote...

it wasn't the cars that were racing.... it was the 2 guys on bikes.... they bumped into each other, sending 1 into 3 cars (including the skyline)

well, thats what i gathered from his story anyway :|

umm reread what everyone else has said. Noone said the skyline was racing, We all know it was the bikes :D

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
