haven't tried starting the car, the fan has been bent, and as you can see the front section has been wiped out.

i got a rough quote, and i'm better off just selling the car and cutting my losses.

i'll take more detailed pictures of the engine bay later this week, still waiting for the mechanic to have a look at the engine and see if anything other than the fan has been damaged, although the initial diagnosis by the panel beater is that the driveline is still fine.

will definately post an update on the mechanical situation.

yes, the airbag is still in, the interior is completely untouched. n

What was the rough quote? Year and kms? Modifications? Location?

Cheers.

PS. Bad luck. Sorry for the loss.

Sorry, need to know more information about the engine before purchase. If you get around to it, see what has happend to the water pump.

Engine is unusable if its pushed the water pump back causing the engine to crack.

Thanks

from looking atone of the pics, the viscous hub has been bent, and if that has transfereed to the water pump, then there might be a problem.

If you can, remove fan and shrud and spin the pump and see if is spins freely or if there's interference

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
