i took a hit in the rear in my r33 and it was written off and was no where near as bad as this. i know the feeling mate, hard luck indeed.

see if u can buy the wreck back off the insurance company then strip it down :-)

R33 GTR upgrade now?

Geez that sux Mitchy...glad you are ok. Looks like a real hard hit. I got hit in the rear (same spot in the rear) in my clubsport and the damage wasn't anywhere near that!!! Next car????

hey...you can buy mine >_< hehehe

Its a very sad site at home today. When I opened the blinds to let the sun in from the kitchen, there she was, all twisted and crumpled.

Mitchy is a little overwhelmed with what happened and isn't sure how he feels, whether it be sad/angry etc... I feel very sad, You come accustomed to someones car being a little bit of them....and its a bit of mitchy out there all bent and twisted. :(

What I don't like and find very insensitive are those people pm'ing him already asking for parts. >_<

IF he decides to buy back the car from the insurance co, all parts will be in the for sale thread.. Since this only happened yesterday, I doubt that that is going to happen anytime soon...so grow some patience and some decorum... www.dictionary.com for those that haven't seen that word before!!

There I've said my piece >_<

Thanks,

Kylie

Glad to hear you're ok Mitchy. Sorry about the car >_<

Kylie - I agree. When my 180sx got written off people started asking for parts that day. The same thing happenned to Dan with his GTR. Its so rude.... the last thing you're thinking of is pulling parts off your baby to sell.

So what happens in this situation? Did you manage to drive the car back to your house or did the towie tow it back.

I have always tried to figure out how towies work as i think they get paid extra $$$$ for towing it to panel beaters and I was under the impression that if the police come it has to go straight to a panel beater? can anyone confirm that?

If it is at your house and no one has taken records of whats damaged etc then does anyone know how far you can go in removing parts?

I dont want any parts as SLY is lovely just the way she is, however should unfortunately this happen to any of us this could be of interest to us all to make a somewhat smarter move out of an unfortunate incident.

Mitchy, Kylie - My condolences to both of you.

    • Do they always do it from the AFM? If so... You know what I'm already thinking I reckon...
    • The other problem is that the pan is on an exchange basis, which would be a pain to have to send original sump to Oz for the work to be done. Would ideally need to be able to pay for a locally sourced core. To that end - I'd just fabricate one outright.
    • Not at all, pure street use, touge, even drag strip and you'll be fine   There's a larger version of it too, however would be overkill for your application. If you do plan on using that sump, might as well fit a headdrain/crank case vent to help alleviate crank case pressure. Your mechanic will also notice you cannot re-use the AWD windage trays on the motor too, as it fouls with the AWD -> RWD sump. However given your usage, you'll be fine.
    • @GTSBoy yeah but the MAIN problem is that "you" guys may know that but i/my mechanic did not. I literally spend hours to find differences between Stagea and Skyline engine (even here) and found kinda "nothing" Yeah one guy mentioned that the block is larger/wider but nothing about the oil pan. Of course AWD has different one but "everybody" says...yeah just slap RWD pan... and the parts number for my N/A engine and NEO DET were the same so iam using one from my old engine. And of course being in EU/Czech many of the sites did not even show(i need VPN to be here)... @MBS206NO it is not my channel and not my video. Dont even know the guy. I just post this as a reference cuz i have the same problem. As i said you guys in AU/NZD may know this but here it is kinda a new info cuz IF someone doing this swap they already have oil pan or they make custom one.  @Dose Pipe Sutututu Yeah it is AWD RB25DET NEO Yeah as you mentioned the pick up is in a different place ...but i do not drift or track the car. It is and will be strictly street and just "casual" weekend cruiser. With that "custom" pan as shown in the video...could there be some problems?  For others. Iam sorry if that topic "looks" like i want to show/boost some YT channel or numbers. Iam quite the opposite.  I would rather drive my car thru sewers than get the attention that this car gets here. I do not have any YT channel nor IG/Twitter or TikTok. I just want some info from time to time cuz here...there is none :-)
