Well as everyone has said lucky your not hurt.

But im guessin you can't do or expect to much from your mate as by the looks of the damage you guys were fair flying, and guessing again you'd have given him permission to do so.....?

Nah we weren't really going quick hey, lost it around the turn about 60-70 k's, I said when we got in the car take it easy you crash it you own it.

This wasn't no mountain run fun thing, he says he thought it was a different turn which is why he went into a bit to quick.

PSI_GTSII "guessin you can't do or expect to much from your mate"

your kidding right? so if you jump in someones car and you crashed it you wouldn't expect to pay for the damage you caused?

well that's unfortunate. bloody beer.

i let tharaka/darK drive my car the other day. beforehand though i said "okay, we are now entering into a verbal contract" consideration etcetc. then he got the back out first turn hahaha :P

I feel your pain man.

same thing happened to me bout 1 1/2 years ago.. i had a 94 starlet gt (back then they were worth bout 15,000) and my mate drove it into a fence... i also had no insurance as i didnt think i would ever need it. Worse yet he bailed on me, ive never seen him since and havnt seen a cent for the car.

Hope everything works out for ya

okay since no one else has done it yet ....

That'll buff right out :)

no insurance as i didnt think i would ever need it

Whats up with this ... is it the new way of saying that I couldn't afford insurance and therefore the car?

What happens if you run into a Merc or a porsche or something??

the side damage was similar to yours, but we didn't have any frontal or engine damage (although both doors needed to be replaced, as well as the front and rear lights).

i think in your case it would be better to strip the parts, and then collect the difference from your friend as with the money it'll cost to repair your car, you could have bought another gtr already.

I dont think the car can be repaired anyway, the c pilar is dented and thats part of the chassis, meaning structurally it might never be engineerable again even if it was repaired.

your best bet is to part it out.

I know you might not want to hear this already, but what do you want for the wreck and if you dont want to sell the whole wreck to me (I am willing to strip it myself as I need some parts myself) what do you want for the engine, intake side of things (fuel rail, injectors, plenum) gearbox, engine harness and all the pipework (thats still intact) for the engine. (Dont need turbos, exhaust, FMIC etc) Can discuss via PM if you like.

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
