    :-(... Do U Think My Baby Is A Write Off?

    Tara, get it written off.

    The inside of a GTS-t is VERY flimsy and that hit has definitely twisted the interior of the engine bay around.

    I just did a lot of work straightening the front end on a 33GTSt that took a really small hit.

    The rear end is also a MASSIVE hit, the only way to repair that is a cut and shut, it will never be the same again.

    Depending on what they want for a buy back, you should consider getting it back and parting it out.

    Thanks for yr reply,yeah I know,the car wont be the same after a smash like that.Its written off now,had a few problems with the insurance company,they didn't even know what date they came to check car...lol.

    First they said repair,So had to take car to smash repairers.Then said yep we wrote car off the day we saw it..Its now gone to the Financial Ombudsman.

    They gave me a salvageprice,which sounded good,but the company wont pick up their ph...lol..

    The places I call gave me half the price to take car,So insurance company is trying to keep more..hahahha,crazy..

    My engine is good,so thinking abt buying a shell.. :no:

    Though the smash repairers may take it in doesnt mean it will be fixed. If it has been assessed, it was to see who is at fault. Once it gets assessed, it will be assessed again once the smash repairs give insurance a quote, then it will be a write off. Not to shoot down your hopes but I got my hopes up too..

    Grrr your spot on... Repairer said write off:-(..getting the second assesment today..after 2 days of fighting with the insurance company i got to choose my own repairer and and got them to pay for tow,which they refused at first...I got a hire too...

    Good luck finding yr new car..Thanks for all yr help..:-).

    As usual, i forget to attach photos. but uploading soon. Is your car insured for under or close to $10k?

    Edit: Photo attached.

    Also take out any non-standard bit if you can, swap the wheels with stock. I wouldn't go too far to mess with any mechanical though like your exhaust or whatever mods you got in your engine bay but

    o

    Thats k..Lol,I was lookin everywher for yr pic...yr car doest look like it has much damage..any engine damage?.. My car is insured for more then 10. We were looking at buying another skyline before,to do mods on....we did't want to do any mods,cos its a 40th anniv...

    whats the damage? my 34 was written off recently simply for the fact that they cannot source the parts or it costed too much to source the bits. I could have fixed it myself for about 2.5k. although I rekon my hit was at about 10-20 Ks. it still ran fine and was in mint condition but still written off.

    Just re-read your post, if she hit you at 80KMPH, definate write off hands down. pics would be good too. where are you located?

    I saw yr post after I wrote mine,sorry abt yr loss..Do u have any pic?

    I still cant believe that mine is gone,I stand at the car,just staring at it...Had so much trouble,must b a vic thing, tow guy wanted cash on the spot,$260,I said i can pay by credit card, i wanted my car brought hm... He said nope cash only,took to depo and gave me a infor on my rights, which I read in da morning.. He was meant to accept card or aggree for me to pay later.. Rang vic roads,the guy and company got there ass kicked, and brought my car hm, i didt have to pay any towing...I grew up in syd, now in mel... It really suxs here...lots of sunday drivers...

    We brought another car, ford xr6, but just not like a skyline, hate drivin it, and sooo many around..

    The car is getting assessed on monday.. Im taking my head unit,amp,sub out tomorr..car has $70 fuel,1000 tyres,all parts that were replace were new,which i would find myself and give my machine....

    I have talked to a few ppl,depanding on what kinda damage u have..The car is never how it use drive..

    Suxs big time ha..u spend sooo much and insurance wont pay for things u have added..we had to have time off work,hire a car for a few days...no one pays for that too..sux sux big time...find cars like yr car online and give them to the insurance company and dont take first offer...thats what i have heard,thats what im doing..Good luck..
