Unhappy Damn Curbs.. My Daily Driver Bites the Dust

Now I cant go play against Yuichi's 350Z

Looks like its going to need a little bit of work..

In the meantime I should see if the brakes will fit the 350 =)

I expected a curbed rim, instead a broken axle?

ouch man, dont think that was a rub so much as a sliding crash...

the power of AWD eh?

sorry I had to.

Holy **** man, what happened? You can't blame me for this one- your STI was fine when I returned it to you last week. At least you're OK, but painful to look at regardless.

There was a fork in the road with the opposite lane comming strait and the lane I was in doing a real sharp turn..

To make a long story short I ended up hitting the curb on the divider..

Guess its happened many times in the same place at night..

You mind telling us what road you were on? I live in the area and would like to avoid that road if possible.
