This morning about 4:50 am in Kedron, Brisbane a White sportivo was the CRUEL victim of a hit and run :(

Some Takumi wannabe decided to practive his drifting skills around a corner in the wet........ well here is the result :(

The IDIOT that did this will hopefully not be found........as i would like to have a few words with him <_< and yes I do have the colour of your car on mine (thank *** i choose white) oh and I also have all of your rear left tail light which clearly has the toyota part numbers on it as I can tell what sort of car you were driving :angry:

A poice report has been filed and the insurance company has been notified.

It really nervers me that people can be such idiots and show total disregard for other peoples property <_<

Now........who would the Brisbane people reccomend for repairs?

yes hit and runs are the worst I know in the heat of the moment people get scared and panic...but if you leave the scene abd you get caught later on then yeah...it makes things eve worse!

handling it okay? you wouldnt have said that if you saw and heard me this morning at 5.00 am in the rain!!!...but yeah what can you do...luckily I am rating 1 for life with no claim bonus and unlimited mods and choice of repairer :D

I'd do it for you, but yeah, im in Canberra :angry: Even got those parts ready, just not white. But, it could be an excuse to invest in some Altezza tail lights, if your into that kinda thing. But yeah, that sucks man! Idiots are around i tell ya, only last night this idiot in a commodore pulled out in front of me and i ended up the gutter cos she didnt even see me!

Hey Craig,

Corey said you think it may have been an old Corolla but on my way home last night, I was sitting at the lights on Gympie Road at Strathmore/Castle street intersection (where KFC & Hungary Jacks is) in Kedron. I was at the red light...and a blue Statesman, about 93ish model came drifting out of Strathmore street onto Gympie Road heading north....

The he flung it sideways into Edingurgh Castle Road (between the 7-11 and Domino's Pizza)

He kept flying up that way but I didn't see where he went from there.

@rseholes!

I know what it's like Craig, fortunately never happened to my Corolla but happened to my old car.

People seem to turn into d!cks when the roads are wet.

Sorry to see that Craig, especially seeing as the 'Flake has only been back on the streets for a short while.

One thing I've noticed, especially along the Gympie Rd to City stretch in morning peak hour, is the number of complete morons that are out and about these days. We've always had them, but not so many as we have lately.

I've figured its only a matter of time before someone or something gets hurt, but its a crying shame that it has happened to a fellow Rolla.

noobs and drifting <_<

only professionals should attempt to drift in the rain...

when your an ameteur and you do this in the wet... you might as well go and drive off a cliff. poor rolla.

And technically P platers arent to blame usually... "the drift scene and "drifters" in aussie are to be blamed.. stupid idiots dont realise aussie roads arent big enuff to go sideways.

thats terrible! those pics belong in a horror movie or something... good luck with the repairs and getting snowflake back on the road!

and dont bag P platers... Sure there are the tools out there who think a few months driving is enough experience to be a moron, but there are still alot of us P platers who are sensible on the road and care for our cars like they are children.

I'm not going to flam the P Platers, but you have to admit that there is a few of them out there that as soon as they are allowed to drive by them selves, think they're 10 foot tall and bullit proof. Just look at Milton BP or any shopping centre on a Thursday night..

I'm not saying that there isn't non-P Platers that don't think the same thing, but I remember when I got my 'P's and the thought I, and all my friends had at the same time.

The secret is if your going to be an idiot on the road, do it when you have no passengers, and there isn't anything within cooee of where you are, ie out the back of nowhere....

I am not supporting idiotic driving, just an opinion...

That's quite funny, the "aussie drifters" I've seen in action have incredible car control and dont have any trouble staying on the black stuff even when it's not wide...

It's usually the young guys in RWD cars inspired by "liquid horsepower" that leave marks on powerpoles etc... Or even a FWD in the dry taking out a letterbox ;)

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Generally, yes. In the 60s, and earlier, there were cars with positive grounds, so I'm always a bit hesitant to say the negative wire. It is always the one that bolts to the body. Herb

      2011 Land Cruiser 1VD-FTV Engine Won't Start After Overhaul

      Hi everyone, I have a 2011 Land Cruiser VDJ200 with a 1VD-FTV engine. I recently had the engine fully overhauled due to a blown head gasket. However, after the overhaul, the engine is not starting. It only cranks but doesn't fire. I've checked the following DTC codes: Internal memory EEPROM error Low rail pressure The actual rail pressure data shows: 240 bar during cranking 61 bar when ignition is off Based on these findings, I suspect the following potential causes: =Defective Diesel High-Pressure Pump =Leaking Piezoelectric Injectors =Diesel Fuel Bypassing to the DPF Circuit =Faulty Injector Drivers I'm hoping for some expert advice to help diagnose and resolve this problem I'm seeking expert advice on how to troubleshoot and resolve this issue. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Disconnecting batteries, ALWAYS disconnect the ground wire first. Doing this will also disconnect power, in general. Herb

      Disconnecting winch, lightbar and UHF

      Hey guys, I’m wanting to disconnect my current winch, lightbar and UHF as I have new plans. I’ve installed a winch previously on another car so I get it’s a case of following the cables and disconnecting from the battery, etc but but safety wise, should I start by disconnecting the battery so the cables aren’t live orrrr? And if so how do it go this haha?

      Snapping wheel and axle studs

      Put a set of standard wheels on it and your problem will disappear. It is critical that the hole in the wheel centre is a snug fit on the axle boss (without wheel nuts fitted). If your wheels are sloppy on the axle boss this allows excess force on your wheel studs and they will break, as yours are doing. If you are unsure of what to do, go to a reputable tyre shop and get assistance.

      2zz idle / roughness when accelerating past 3k

      Hey everyone was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction with this issue I've been facing for a while now. My Celica's idle will drop down to almost 200rpm when stationery after hitting operating temperature. Pretty much feels like it's about to stall out but never actually does. When taking off from a set of lights it almost feels like it hesitates or is down on power and then all of a sudden it lurches forward and gets a boost in power again. Then again around 1,500-3,000rpm it feels down on power and in what I can only describe in the engine feeling scratchy. Past 3,000 rpm it gets a little boost in power again but still definitely feels down on power compared to what it used to be and still has that roughness. Note lift is also not working at the moment but I have changed the lift bolts, planning on cleaning the VVT and VVTL-i OCV's New engine mounts have been installed I changed the MAF sensor about 4 years ago albeit not OEM. After doing some research my main ideas now would be a New MAF this time OEM, TPS, IACV or Coil Packs (Changed plugs 50,000km ago) Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! :)
