I was wondering why I hadn't seen your car parked around work at all.

Bad luck man.....let's hope you get back on the road quickly!

[SkyGTRline]

Tha sux dude... id hate just the thought of my baby being torn up...

Hope you get her up and back on the road with no hassles..

These things happen, even to the best of drivers..

Good luck.

[Envisage]

Should take about a month to get her back on the road.. I have pictures.. just need to find out how to upload them

Good luck with it anyway, sh*t happens to the best of us you just gotta pick your self up dust yourself off and start again (easy to say when its not you that has to spend $15,000).... Hope all goes well

I already told him about the remaining rear half of the car

[Bullet32]

Viva garage have helped with the kit so happy with that.. but yeah the rest is going to be expensive.. oh well.. gotta fix her up..

Okay finally got the picture up.. sorry if the resolution is bad..

ouch

holy sweet merciful mother of crap that almost brings tears to my eyes

for 22k is it almost worth wrecking it out and getting another one ??? i know that sounds mean but that is alot of repairing anyways whatever direction you choose let us know how you go gl

[geordie]

Yeah that is almost a good idea leech_ has there 22k plus what you could get in selling off all the parts (i think front cut is worth over 6k)....starts getting close to the territory of buying another one......all interior bits, doors, wheels etc etc.....all the bits would stack the $$ up pretty quickly towards a new one.

Such a hard decision to make, glad its not me. *touch wood*

[mjfawke]

Having had a car repaired from roo-strike previously, it will never be as good as factory... and that was an insurance job.

[geordie]

and that was an insurance job

Could be half the problem, they dont give a toss when it comes to insurance jobs. My mum had her car repaired by a certain repairer in Queanbeyan (pm if you want a name) and we had to take it back coz many parts were missing, like the door hinge that stops the door from just flying open at will, various interior parts, the seatbelt wasnt joined etc etc etc......

I have had a recent good experience with a smash repairer whom i plan to take my car to from now on (hopefully it wont be a regular occurance/ever!). Was 1/3rd the price of another repairer i asked. I couldnt believe it. The price dropped 1/3rd in the space of 5mins all by taking a drive around the corner.

[Stevie]

Holy Jebus! Yeah you should consider wrecking it (not saying that i would know what decision to make)...

Well its a damn shame anyway. I'm glad your alright though bro! Sounds to me like your tyre/s picked up something on the road and it was the cause of the sparks and the subsequent loss of traction. Just a theory. Or have you got more of an idea what happened now?

EDIT: Its times like this when paying my insurance company a huge amount each month feels justified.. Oh wait no, its gone. Filthy expensive bastards!

[oscar32]

Wow, thats pretty nasty. Good luck with getting it back on the road.

IF you decide to wreck it, that motor would look sweet in the 32
