I'm not actually sure, but i think i was driving down the road and there was a group of people walking on the sidewalk and i looked over to see if i knew them and i turned back a second later and the truck in front of me was turning into a gas station. i clipped the rear passenger side part of his bumper. then he jumped out and ran up on me yelling "GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE CAR YOU FUCKING PUNK MOTHERFUCKER" like i was gonna drive off or something with my radiator busted and my intercooler piping all leaking.
he had a little dent and scratches in his bumper, while i have this.
A reason to drive a big car :v:
yeah. 90's ram pickup vs 90's ~2400lb s13 is very fair
You guys get into a fight or anything? If someone pulled that shit with me after i ruined my baby I'd probably blow a headgasket in his face or something...
well its not actually ruuuined but no, it was my first car collision so i was kinda in shock
[QUOTE=lemon_lover;30345145]yall actin like im just gonna get rid of it

This car's gonna come back better than ever. I can't leave all my haters hangin. :smug:

if i just gave up on my babies oh i mean 240's, my hatch would have been gone a long time ago[/QUOTE]
Woah the hood popped off and everything.
But really, glad you're fine. Even though I'm a relatively large douche to people that have different opinions than me, I hate when something happens to something they've spent money on. The damage is fixable, but it won't stand up as well if a wreck happens again. Frame damage is visually repairable, but not structurally.
Unless you take the body off of the frame and reinforce it, that will take a lot of time and work though.
The 240SX is unibody, you can't take the body off the frame. Pretty much anything Japanese is unibody. Anything American now too. Unless it's a truck.
Hopefully I will be going tube front.
also, an update im going to copy paste here
[quote]ugh, put the radiator from my hatch on my coupe, went to hook up the intercooler piping with a spare cold pipe i had since the one that was on there had the BOV ripped off, doesn't fit. if i could just get this piping hooked up, i could make sure my engine still runs good.[/quote]
[quote][h2]VERY NICE, GREAT SUCCESS.[/h2]
After I got fed up with the intecooler piping, i decided to just start it and see what happens. It started, bogged, and spewed acrid black smoke, presumably from running 10's of times richer than usual. So then i remembered, "Why not unhook the MAF and have it run in Open Loop?"
So I did and it started up and idled perfectly, albeit a few hundred RPM's higher. I then drove it around the block, and it drove fine up to about 2400RPM's where it started to bog. Also, making right turns, the passenger side wheel rubs on the wheel tub that was bent in.
Bang that out, get some piping to hook up the intercooler, and it should run and drive just like normal.[/quote]

Went to Pick n Pull down in SE Portland with my Bro and a friend to pick up some headlights, corner lights, and a fender. We were looking for a hood too but they didn't have any that weren't smashed. Grabbed a side mirror too while we were there. It ended up coming to a grand total of $116.95 for all the parts. I offered to pay about $35 of the bill, and my Brother paid the rest, but somehow the guy at the register managed to charge my card the full $116.95 AND $35, but I didn't find out till I got home. Called them back and the guy said he realized that happened afterwards and canceled it, so I should get my money back probably after midnight. We'll see though.
Still trying to get the fender to line up properly. I think my brother needs a new passenger door though. It kinda sags slightly and it rubs really bad on the fender when you open it. We've been massaging* the edge of the door and the back edge of the fender, and filing the bolt holes for the Fender.
*Rubber mallets and crescent wrenches dawg
