Well, I totalled my car tonight...Going a bit too fast sround a tight corner that I knew was there, locked up the tires and bam hit a curb. Proceeded to spin 180 degrees onto a sidewalk at which point my car was laying on my $200 18" rim in the rear and the front tire was inverted towards the body of the car. The rear hub completely snapped off and all of the control arms in the front snapped...

As Enes would so perfectly say: Why does life suck so much?

Anyways, since my car will more than likely be totalled I will be going back to stock in the next few days...Here is what I have and what I still need:

MBC - Have the stocker
BOV/UIP - Have the stocker
Intercooler - Friend has a 1g
Ex Man - Friend has a 1g
O2 - Friend has a 1g
Turbo - NEED A T25!!!
Exhaust - Have a 1g, but let me know if you have stock 2G FWD!!!
Injectors - Have some that will fit
Fuel pump - Have the stocker
ECU - I'm keeping my damn dsmlink! Leaving it out...
Air Intake - Still have stocker
Clutch - Have a stocker
Tranny - Anyone have a broken one they want to sell/give me?
Flywheel - Anyone have one?
Shocks and Springs - They are pretty jacked, I'll leave em on I guess...


Basically I need a T25 for sure, the tranny and exhaust aren't necessary but let me know!

Anyone know if they will try to start the car or look at the engine when they come to appraise it?

It's been a lovely day!

I'll talk to you tomorrow at Elite...

I think Enes has exhaust for me, but I still need a flywheel, ECU, T25 (Khadgar), and replacement tranny...

Anyone?

Thanks!

Wow, that really sucks. Sorry to hear it Chris. Same thing I told Swanny though, one way or another if it is handled right, it should work out in your favor. Enes definately has your exhaust. And if for some reason the t2small doesn't work out with Kyle, he has a really cheap one as well. Good luck with this and of course keep us all posted.

Yeah, at least I am OK...At least I have you guys for some support I guess I will be going AWD now?

Oh yeah, and to make things worse I forgot to mention the reckless driving ticket I got for totalling my baby...

It's like I got kicked in the face, and the cop kicked me a few more times while I was on the ground...

Did he witness it happen? How could he give you the ticket? I would have made something up like "I was cut off by another driver who was coming over into my lane and had to swreve to miss him". :P

No, he didn't see it, but my car was rotated 180 degrees on a sidewalk...He took pictures of the skid marks (if there were any?) and my car. It was obvious I was going too fast. I couldn't think of anything bright to say at the time...Any ideas for my court appearance???

Just plead guilty and own up to the fact you were going to fast....why does every one try and get out of what they were doing?

In this case I agree, unless the road conditions where bad, I bet if you plead guilty, be respectful, and just look/seem bummed about the whole thing I don't see anything really bad happening since they might think your car being total is punishment enough.

Mainly because my insurance rates will skyrocket on the accident alone, all I need is a reckless...Why wouldn't you try to get out of it?
