Changing oil tomorrow!

So if oil is getting cheaper, why is gas so damn high?

well guys, it pains me to say this but my Z just got totaled earlier today. Short story I got t-boned by someone who was going atleast 35mph.

When i drove it back home I can feel that the frame may be twisted since it doesn't track straight.

Oh no! That sucks! Dammit, I'm angry for you!

Sooooooo many idiots on the road that should be in some kind of institution.

At least you're alive and ready to get back in it.

edit: I think it's fixable. This girl I know thought her Z was totaled and forced the insurance company to pay for it to be fixed. Now it's better than new. Got the frame fixed and everything.

It's totalled for sure, theres alot of other damage you cant see in the pictures. I dont think I'd go as far as forcing to get it repaired, I want it to be totalled actually. I already found a replacement nismo in sioux falls south dakota.

What color did you find? What will happen to the current Nismo?

Raymond Autobody ftw! I've done business there.

Again, sorry to see this.






If it gets totaled out, would we be able to swap brakes?
