Its only my daewoo.... but now im out of transport while i wait for my R32 to get complied in NSW.

I always swore to myself that i would just run over animals rather than put myself at risk like all those other "idiots" u see.... well i was wrong...

It took me by surprise... it could have ended up much worse but i managed to handle it pretty well and only cause minor damage to the car.

The front left wheel is damaged and looks like it has been pushed back a little on impact... wheel is slightly cambered now too :D looks like suspension and cross member is damaged but i dont know much about cars and hope its not going to cost too much to repair.

Thankfully at 1am a P plater girl actually stopped for me after sitting there in the rain for half an hour trying to get it out the ditch... eternally greatful to her for stopping and actually driving me home to get my bro in law to tow me out with his Jackaroo. Most girls would have driven str8 past but she ignored the possible dangers and actually picked me up. 1 Million thanks to that girl!

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
