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?

Hit and run? Oh man that's got to be the worst. You seem to be dealing with this quite well, I hope everything turns out ok for you.

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.

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 ;)

      Swapping hiace motors

      Hi there, bit of background, I’ve got a 2003 Toyota hiace lwb that has a good motor but the shell is dead, and a 1993 Toyota hiace commuter extra long wheel base that has a dead motor. Both diesel, 1993 is 2.4L engine, 2003 I’m not 100% but I believe it’s also a 2.4L engine So my question is does anybody know if the 2003 motor would fit in the 1993 hiace commuter.

      Brake issues with 2024 Corolla Cross Hybrid

      Hi all, trying to get some opinion/feedback on what I recently observed on my Corolla Cross. It happened on the last two trips where the car made noise, I feel some vibration/rattling when I was braking. It lasts for 1 or 2 seconds. I kind of felt the tires skid but I am not sure if that's what actually happened. And I, again kind of, felt that it was the right side tires. Or at least the noise coming from the right side. But it could be just because I was driving and obviously sit on the right side of the car. In those 2 trips, it happened in 4 occasions. And it wasn't abrupt or hard braking, just normal slowing down. I wonder if this is a known issues ... or if anyone with the same car experience the same or similar issues. Thank you.

      IAC for 1997 Camry Vienta (3vzfe)

      Aisan (not to be confused with Aisin by the way) has been an OEM supplier for Toyota carburetor, throttle-body and fuel-injection components since the '60s. Unlike Denso and Aisin though, they're not actually part of the Toyota Group (but Toyota does have a financial interest in them)

      IAC for 1997 Camry Vienta (3vzfe)

      I have a 1997 Camry vienta with a 3vzfe. My idle air controller is gone and I'm looking for a replacement. I came across an AISAN ISC 069 and was wondering if it's oem like denso? if not then is it a good replacement? I have also looked at GOSS and Tridon and was wondering which of them is better. Also what aftermarket brand is good in genera PAT, GOSS or tridon? cause I can't find may toyota parts for my car so I need to rely on these

      Aurion "wobble"

      Hi all, Last weekend I became the proud owner of an Aurion zr6 2008. Looks great and the engine and trans seem to be in good condition. It has 220,000km on the clock. It does have one issue though that's bugging me. It has a slight wobble... All the time. It's not coming through the steering and the rate or wobble is directly proportionate to the speed of the car. I had brand new wheels and tyres put on the day I bought it. They were balanced and aligned. I haven't taken it to my mechanic yet but I will be this week. Hoping to get some advice from the community before I do as I'm not mechanically minded. My friend thinks it's the left rear trailing arm bushing 🤷🏻‍♂️ sounds plausible. Cheers.
