It felt rotten seeing my car today. It was like saying goodbye to an old friend, but I had to see it in such dismal shape. I could have sat in that broken drivers' seat for days, silent...

There will be another.

There should be a limit on how many 240sx's a person can destroy in a year (or something...)

Now I know why I had had a hard time finding a nice one. Exactly half of the ones my mechanic looked over for me were wrecked.

I think the confusing part is that there are two separate threads when there should be only one. That messed me up initially too. I don't know why the pics were posted in this thread as opposed to the original thread. They are, indeed, sad though. Bummer, dude.

adey · 02-17-2003, 07:54 PM

What the FUKC kind of tires are those!?! All season H-speed rating (what, up to 65 mph?!) tires are NOT meant to be pushed at all! Man, I have no idea what you were thinking!
Any suspension mods? ... actually, any mods OTHER than interior/sound???

/etc/shadow · 02-17-2003, 07:55 PM

Those are Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's.. 205/60R15. The tire damage is from sliding over a curb, through some grass, and over another curb, sideways.

hookedup240 · 02-17-2003, 08:38 PM

damn man you are so fvcking lucky that nothing happened to you. I just hope if anything major happens to me such as an accident i am that lucky. You only get a few chances in life better take advantage of it.

96SEChick · 02-17-2003, 08:40 PM

Wow--that's quite a jolt to the rear. I'm very glad your front didn't hit that pole--it would have hurt you pretty bad. How's your neck & back feeling? Mine hurt just looking at those pics. Sorry to hear about the loss

/etc/shadow · 02-17-2003, 08:41 PM

Back is fine, ribs are a bit funny feeling, neck is *slightly* sore if I try to move it around in a circle or anything.

019 · 02-17-2003, 09:02 PM

ouch.. that sucks... good luck in your quest to finding a new 240

JerkFaceJason · 02-17-2003, 09:32 PM

i just realized ETC, you're on SA forums also. pretty schweet!

Bbandit · 02-17-2003, 10:40 PM

hey thats a texas license plate!! where do you live man?
why would you do such a thing to a beautiful car

thank god you're alright

/etc/shadow · 02-17-2003, 10:54 PM

Plano. Believe me, that car meant more to me almost than *I* mean to me. I babied that car... even gave it a kiss goodnight. I will have another S13 but it will never be the same...

And I won't be hitting the speed limiter while cornering on public roads either. I need to take it to the track.

haha, my cousin took out 3 integras in one year. Wrapped one around a tree, another around a light pole. Forget what happened to the last one. I think he just fugged it up pretty bad.

b_dyche · 02-18-2003, 12:47 AM

man... that is a sad set of pics...

Glad to hear you're ok... but I feel bad for your car...
