R32 Sky Rip

[Daniel R32]

You cant handle a stock turbo GTST but want a 10 sec Ae86?

Its a GTR not a GTS-T

[342Four]

he wished

its not fortunately

[infamous_t]

He had a GTST with GTR panels all round.

[dmr]

that sucks that you just got the car.. i'd be crying right about now haha

If it was me in your position, Id be looking at the Bee*R R324 conversion kits.

ditto

[R DIRTY 3]

oh pulease that skylines in awesome nick

now i'll show u how to write off a gtr

Talks cheap! PICS!!!!!!

Doesnt even look like there is any suspension damage so the hit has caused what appears to be cosmetic damage only. Start getting some parts together and fix it up

Even if that was true, which it isnt, that would simply make it look worse for him, seeing as how they have this wonderful thing called 4WD. (not withstaning the key flick or fuse pull)

Bad luck champ - drove past you just after it happened. Peak hour, rain, and you looking pretty down on yourself next to the car.

Must say it looks much worse in the pics than what I saw on the freeway but then I really only saw one side of it.

And like others have said, looks cosmetic only - fix her up, but if it aint a GTR lose the badge I reckon.

[JieLine]

Bad luck man, I think this could happen pretty easy to myself... I seriously drive like the biggest grandma on wet roads heh

[Lucy in the Sky]

im affraid i am a grandma driver in the wet too. im scared to death of something like this happening to my car.

can you get a friend (a very good friend) who has insurance to put their hand up and say it was their fault and you can pay their insurance bills?

[R DIRTY 3]

I wouldnt have thought that its possible to claim someone elses insurance.

Also, would be fraud?

VERY VERY VERY bad advice. Insurance fraud is not on. SAUWA does not endorse it.

I'm sorry to be so hard on you Lucy, unless you were kidding

[Chi100188]

unlucky i guess.....just cosmetic damage...pretty easy to fix just time consuming ! mate u shoulda bought insurance bad luck

Cheers

[DiNoBoNeS]

Insurance fraud is crap man thats y all our Insurance bills are high because of alll the insurance fraud around. but like others said it does not look bad bit of TLC and she will be tops again. Sucks that u hit the wall man but like u said u did not take no one out and ur still alive. All u need is time, love, MONEY.

hope all goes well for you and ur 32mate.

yeh, i got a good mate helpn me out with a quote cos he does business with midland smash so there comn back with a price for me.. and im guna look at getn some GTR guards slaped on perhaps as well..

ill see what happens, lets say iv got more respect for rwd cars in teh wet now without a doubt if it was in teh dry im pretty certain i could of pulled it back but wet just yeh wayyy to slipery could of been worse, could of been overtakn at a higher speed like a truck or somthn..

Did you see it happen taynewguy it would of been a awsome thing to watch.. guy behind me who stoped behind me was like woa.

btw teejay its not stock. has AFC, larger turbo and the usual associated mods. If i had a GTR i doubt i would be in the situation to begin with praise awd.. didnt get a GTR straight away cos i didnt think that would be wise coming from a 170hpatw fwd car to somthn with double the power and is tail happy. rather work my way up.

and insurance companies read forums

but thats repairable not as bad as I first thought tho too.... bitta elbow grease and some new panels and front bar.. new lights and should be okish yeh? plus you only just got it give it a shot and see how you go

[KrisG]

Thats what happens when u f**k around in the wet, think next time that you have turbos that make power as u rev higher...

[big col]

I don't know how you could lose it like that overtaking at the speed limit, unless you dropped down a gear and planted your foot flat to the floor on wet roads... which is just silly. I never use full throttle on wet roads unless I want to do something silly lol even then it doesn't even take full throttle to step it out, you really need to be careful on wet roads! Glad you're okay though, as that's the most important thing as cars are easily replaced. Hopefully you'll learn from this experience and have more respect for performance vehicles and road conditions. The car doesn't look to be in that bad of a condition considering your description of what happened!

Next time get insurance! If you had hit someone else's car you'd be in so much strife... at least get third party no matter what car you drive.
