Whos Good At Guessing Prices

[drift_sil80]

well after some spirited driving tonight i macked it into a cliff face so now im after a rough estimated by fellow skyline owners on what its gonna be worth to fix now i know i was stupid in doing it but thats in the past now and ive moved on so leave the calling me a dickhead to a minimum

Mate of mine had an s13 with similar damage, tho his was a camry wagon not a cliff.. Cost him $5000 i think as the whole strut tower had moved and needed some stern treatment to get it realigned properly. (that was bonnet, guard, bumper, reinforcement bar, lhs headlight and indicator...plus labour. Yours dont look quite as bad though. Good luck..

Those look like SA plates. Are you a local mate?

[drift_sil80]

yep sa boy happend at chain of ponds, im outside today pulling it apart looks like a bent control arm, snapped tension rod, smashed head light and a new front guard, ill post some pics of the damage ive surveyed today

[drift_sil80]

heres some more pics of some snapped and bent shit

[BigMicky]

have you bent that LHS chassis rail?

Is the front cross member damaged, often with an impact like that you strech the bolt holes for the lower control arm.

I hope your handy with the 9 inch grider and the mig...

look on the bright side, as part of the repair job, you can ditch the factory (and bent) IC and put a front mount in

If you can do the repairs yoursell it would cost around $1000, but more like $3000 if a crash shop did all the work.

eeeekkk, yeah im doing most shit myself, but its only a drift car if shits slightly bent so be it, likely to happen again anyway

[drift_sil80]

well its costing me 600 to fix including parts and labour, get it back tomorrow and get my vertex front bar tomorrow also, so mods can look this, thanks to everyone who replyed

Just ensure all your suspension is straight and tru, otherwise it will be a prick to drive, let alone drift.

A FMIC would also be advisable for drifting
