RWD GTR DRIFTER Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) A fire truck crushed my Skyline. I am now looking for answers on what to do next, sell as is, sell wheels and replace them with stock, towbar and other aftermarket extras or part out the car. Can anyone offer me any advice with their experience Here is the car as is Radaitor support, front bar reo, cooler piping, bonnet, left and right quarter panels, lhs steering arm, lhs rim damaged. I have already been informed that it will buff out, but im not attempting it Edited January 29, 2013 by RWD GTR DRIFTER Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/418797-a-fire-truck-crushed-my-skyline-part-2/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

R31Nismoid Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 If you got paid out - Part it. If you didn't get paid out - Part it Either way, Part it. to fix it will cost you more in differential price.

Cowboy1600 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 That things rooted. Part it out regardless unless someone offers you $4k for it as is which is unlikely.

Johnie Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Thanks for the advice everyone. I would like to part it out but I dont have time. Does anyone have any estimate on what its worth in parts? Anyone interested in buying it and parting it let me know Engine and gearbox is worth about $2000 If you dont have time to fix or part it out try sell as is for about $3000? Repair it if you have the time and can DIY I have a series 2 r33 that i bought off another sau member on here few months back with nearly the same amount of damage (yours is a bit worse but mine was still listed as written off), iv'e repaired it and has set me back about $200 or so on parts for rhs steering rack, shockers and control arms were damaged iv'e replaced them and it drives straight now however i still need headlight, guard, the car needs viv so i wont be getting that and will be turning it into a track car. Iv'e added a photo of how i got the car with the damage Edited January 31, 2013 by Johnie Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/418797-a-fire-truck-crushed-my-skyline-part-2/#findComment-6730154 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had an S1 with a bit less damage than yours and couldn't shift it for $3k. Ended up swapping it for a very neat 2001 R1.
