... surely you can rip the parts off the wreck to put onto the new beast?

...what I was thinking after CRD and you made some serious mods.

...and a convertible might not be a bad idea either, upon buying back the wreck.

i reckon thats fix able, just cut the roof off and weld have a new one welded on, new rear window and any other bits that got broke, and re spray it. what auctions is it going to?

Well from the pics you can see turret, both rear fenders (looks like damage to both rear pillars), rear screen, headlining and rear spoiler. Those parts alone exceed $10k. Then there's any parts you can't see in the pics which i'm sure there would be. Add to that the cost of labour and you can start to see why it has been written off.

also don't forget you can no longer re-register 'repairable' write offs in nsw any more. :/ too many fkers using the scheme to re-birth stolen cars as opposed to poor mechanics who bought financial write offs and repaired them nicely in the hope of making an honest buck.

    • Not sure what you mean by electronic speedo drive.  Speedo reads fine up to 180 yes.
    • For anyone interested, this is my old graph from 2021, but I've plotted the previous setup curve onto it with a black pen. old setup was: pon cams, oem itbs and plenum, HPI manifold, hks 2835 pro S .87ar rear, Turbosmart actuator, 3" turbo back no res. or cat., greddy spec M fmic, nismo 740cc inj, walbro in tank 460, splitfires, 4" intake pipe, Apexi pod, e85, eboost2, power Fc. I love that the new setup has much larger turbo spec with the HTA3076 1.01ar Ts rear, and literally everything is bigger, but far higher quality and result is it's FAR more responsive in paper.
    • This makes a lot of sense! I just had that realisation a few minutes ago and wrote it above haha. This is a good new discovery. "Sanding the side of the hill" perfect way to put it.   😂 😂 
    • This is probably what's happened to me. I'll put filler again on my repairs and use the long block and let you know how I go. Fingers crossed it's my last batch of filler lol. I can see that happening where my block dipped at certain points because it didn't cover all the high spots at the same time if that makes sense. I'm just trying to visualise the fact that with the large sanding block I will be sanding far away from the central dent area and whether that will cause issues or whether that's going to fether out my repairs better.
