Fallen victim to the cripling Nissan Stageas out there.

Flat bed truck reversed into my car this morning in the street, for a building works across the street.

.......happy but sad, at least I am going to get that DAYZ front bar now hopefully through the insurance company(need a new front bar anyways). Wont be able to get the parts anywhere by from Nissan either......

The damage is front bar support (which was custom done by revzone for my cooler), front 1/4 panel, front bar, front bar lip, front idicator (possibly salvagable), front driver headlight and front driver parker

That really sucks! Sorry to hear it Alex, I really hate it when something happens to your car and you had nothing to do with it. If they can't drive without hitting stationary objects then I don't think they should be driving at all!

As far as insurance is concerend, it is a Dayz bar the has been damaged right? :thumbsup:

Alex,

Shizen Houzen.

Want the number of my Panel Beaters?

Tops Blokes.

Nunawading Panels

9873 5855

Tell you I sent you.

PS. Who's the insurance company for the person who hit you.

NEVER LET THEM TAKE YOUR CAR FROM YOU.

They will fix it in the cheapest possible manner and tell you its good enough.

Speak to Tony. He'll help you out with whatever you need.

that sucks mate, but at least you got all of his details

Alex, if you want a driver side qtr panel, a guy here in Kinglake West has got one, its silver

but is clean as

give him a call, might still have it 03-5786-5566 or 0418 123 637

a good guy and knows his skylines-

I am not after any parts thanks guys, just letting you all know about it is all.

The insurance company will cover all the costs, ive never thought this about any other car, but i shit everyone not but I can see this ending up to cost 7-10k after labour, parts etc...

Alex,

which insurance company is he with?

I repeat. DO NOT GIVE YOUR CAR TO THE INSURERS.

Get the quotes yourself, give them to the insurance company and make sure they go to your chosen repairer to asses to damage.

Don't go to their assesment places, as they often just take photos of the damage and ask panel beaters to quote on the e-mail, and then give the job to the cheapest, regardless of the work involved.

BASS OUT

    • Hey, it's me! Though honestly, if I had 20M in my bank account tomorrow, I would not want to be rid of my car all of the sudden - Which makes me think this is money stuff, not "I actually hate car" stuff. I'd probably double down and buy even more trinkets and fun things for it. If this is not you, then sell it cheaper. It will sell at a certain price after all.
    • This is the LCA mount reloctaion kit. Self explanatory in its description. https://au.gktech.com/products/s13-180sx-r32-subframe-anti-squat-reduction-weld-in-kit?_pos=62&_fid=1e812d392&_ss=c These are the alloy subframe bush inserts that I am using. I like them. https://au.gktech.com/products/rear-subframe-slip-in-collars?_pos=29&_fid=1e812d392&_ss=c Alternatively, if you have original and shitty bushes, you might consider outright replacement with poly. https://au.gktech.com/products/polyurethane-rear-subframe-bushes?_pos=28&_fid=1e812d392&_ss=c I would also higly recommend that you look into adjustable RUCAs and tension rods, so you can sort out the camber and bump steer behaviour, especially if the car will be any more than ~15mm lower than stock. I would also highly recommend the GKTech FUCAs, although you really should do some research and learning on the subjetc of R32 FUCAs before making any decisions. All of this will be criticaly difficult to get through a TÜV inspection too, if that happens to be relevant to you. Note that if you do install the relocation kit, you will absolutely have to replace the associated bushes with spherical joints (you can read all about that on the product page) or upgrade the LCAs also.
    • I picked up my block and head last week and have been slowly assembling it since then. Pictures I took earlier this week. The rest of the auxiliaries are on now. I just have my intake manifold runners to tap for my WMI direct port setup before putting it back on. I should hopefully have the motor back in by this weekend.
