Default wrecked my Z


yea not sure if its totalled or not

it got a lot of f'd up suspension on the front and rear

the motor is fine not sure about the frame tho



the story is i came around a corner to fast and guess i was really tired or something and freaked out, the car ramped up a curb and took out a little tree



not sure what ima be doing with the car

either

1 get it fixed if its not totalled

2 part it out if its totalled

3 try and fix it my self

4 or sell it as is for dirt cheap



i might be in the market for a s14 if i do get rid of it

Glad you're ok.

Questions:

Inclement weather?
Thread left on tires?
Speed at time of incident?
and for Hraes, how old are you?

Reason I ask is that exit ramps seem to be the Zs #1 enemy nowadays.

hahaha passenger light is in tact

but if i decided to part out the car, how much yall think i could get?

id either part out just the car and keep to motor to put it in a 240 later
or just part out the whole thing

but what im asking is around about much money could i get if i parted out motor, tranny, wiring, 6 speed swap stuff, seats, vlsd, driveshaft, some body pieces, hatch, exhaust, taillights, any thing else inside the car, and who knos the frame might still be good too
