i would not be suprised for a second if its not classed as a write off seriously.. its not a 25k repair there.

only on the basis of how many are in country and the parts being all imported that it will be classed as a write off.. if this was japan that wouldnt be.

sump aside have you checked for any serious damage... its supposed to drop the engine from the mounts on purpose in a front end smash allowing the sump to smash on the ground ..which actually protects the motor and gearbox from frontal impact. thats the clever design of these.

didnt notice the motor oil mixed with the tranny oil sorry. thought it just mightve been coolant and tranny oil.

its a writeoff 100% no doubt about that. i sent the photos to my brother he will confirm this for sure.

the repair doesnt have to = 25k

just remember that all parts need to be new from nissan.. factor that into the costs and you will be getting your insurance payment soon!

Our old maxima had $7k damage and it was a ti 2003 maxima it was written off.. We got 16k I'm not complaining though coz that's how I became a stagea owner!!!!

It doesn't hav to be much damage they factor everything in like for yours the time involved to source parts and also there can also be the chance of structual damage that is undiscovered they would rather write it off in case a serious accident is caused later due to this then the insurance company can be liable.. They have so much money to them it's no loss over a few thousand bucks..

Finally after a bit of mucking around and waiting, it is a write off.

The offer from pickles is a joke for the wreck, even the assessor told me to see what I can yet privately.

Anyone interested? Has nismo s-tune suspension and sound control exhaust.

Wow, dude, it's been almost 2 months! What the hell? Even an amateur can tell that that's a write-off, surely mounting a median strip and wiping out that fence would have caused structural damage, not to mention hitting the other car...

Might be interested in the turbo if you are parting it? PM?

I am open to offers, if I can make a bit extra out of it for my next m35 and help someone out with parts it is all a win win situation.

Offer is only open for a few days and then I will just let pickles take it for the measely $820 lol

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
