car crashed tonight - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

reefer1114 · 04-29-2005, 01:35 AM

was driving on a windy road. was on the 2nd turn and i lost control of the car (rain and dirt) and tried to steer it back. then lost total control. car ended up hitting a dirt wall going 50-60 and did a 360. front is smashed in and oil was leaking everywhere. my glasses flew out the car, my cell phone flew in the back, my cds everywhere. probably said the F word about 10000000000X. im ok though probably just some bruises. but yea to vvtisupra, i cant buy the rims this weekend, hope you understand. ill post pics up tomorrow after i tow it. i guess time to get a silvia front haha. seriously though take care out there and play it safe. i live to drive another day.

went to go get it towed today. i guess the damage wasnt that bad at all. miracle...can i get an amen! and thanks for the support. and i know it was stupid to go that fast.

AllenRPS13 · 04-29-2005, 03:18 AM

Maeda · 04-29-2005, 04:24 AM

Edit that post and nix the name of the road too.

Sorry about the loss but going 60 in the rain on the mountain just isn't smart.

Ian · 04-29-2005, 07:11 AM

what an idiot...i hope it's a total loss and you end up getting shit back from insurance so you're forced to not destroy another 240sx

kilword1 · 04-29-2005, 09:36 AM

thatll buff out

Ritz S14 · 04-29-2005, 10:15 AM

Glad you're ok man. Luckilly you drive an S13, parts are everywhere. If you're really lucky, you probably could everything for 100bucks. Few months ago, I gave away my fenders, bumpers, and hood..just cause it was taking up too much friggin space for 2 bottles of Dr. Pepper.

Andrew Bohan · 04-29-2005, 11:44 AM

i sold those fenders with quickness!!

still have the bumpers in my backyard

Slidin240Wayz · 04-29-2005, 12:07 PM

Swap the front end, pull the radiator core back to place. Glad to hear you are ok. I feel your pain.

zfinger · 04-29-2005, 04:45 PM

I know how that goes. I fell asleep and hit a tree at 60 after a very long week in college with no sleep, a day of snowboarding, and then a 2 1/2 hour drive home. Now I need a new winter beater. Glad to hear your ok.

it bad enough he has to deal with a messed up car... but comments from people like are stupid and unneeded....

This comment was completely uncalled for. He admitted what he did was stupid. There was no need to try and call him out like that. Don't try and cause any more drama.

Var · 04-29-2005, 05:07 PM

funny how many people crash on the 1st or 2nd turn.

chmercer · 04-29-2005, 05:33 PM

why were you "grip driving" on old mud and snow tires.

reefer1114 · 04-29-2005, 06:32 PM

thanks for the kind words. but yea i dont think i can just buff it out haha. the left side of the engine bay is kinda ripped up, my strut bar at the base was bent and the driver rear wheel is bent also. and everything on the left side was pushed in about 3 inches. i dont know what to do. you guys think its fixable or should i just start parting it out now? i mean i bought the car for 1400 and theres no way im paying more than that to fix it. grrr.

BEISSEN · 04-29-2005, 06:39 PM

If there is frame damage part it out and get a newer"S14" or another S13 and remember a RWD car hats wet roads.

91CRXsiR · 04-29-2005, 07:03 PM

i had a very similar thing happen to me few years ago.. destroyed my 1st 240 but the damage was MUCH worst i think its because i hit ROCK and you hit dirt.. lucky bastard

240Driver39 · 04-29-2005, 07:17 PM

looks totalled to me...have fun

s13gonwild · 04-29-2005, 09:18 PM

from the pics it looks like the shock tower might have been damaged...if your intrested Im looking for a car i can cut up. IM me at k24etsilvia...maybe you can sell it to me as a whole.

jdm538 · 04-30-2005, 12:38 AM
