purrrrrrfect choice ... color, everything

looking at the pics ... you will need at least two new wheels ... I don't know what the list $$ is on the Stock 18s (I'd guess $600 - 700 each) ... so you may be able to swing it.

Maybe you will get lucky and the front A-arms busted too .... calling 350EVO ... rob needs new a-arms

sitting here thinking about it.

You have:

$2k in panels
$1k in paint
$2k in labor on all that
$1.5k in wheels
$2k in suspension (guess)
$1k in labor
.... I mean ... it is adding up quickly ... let's just hope she is save-able

keep us posted dude (no pun intended )

Yeah thats basically what I told him. If something needs to be replaced and it costs more for a stock piece then a nice aftermarket one go for it. I just know this is going to get pricey and I don't want them to feel obligated to buy me a bunch of other stuff. I mean Brad's a nice guy and hes already hooked me up pretty fat with the kit and all.

Daym, thats some crazy ish Rob. Hope everything works out. Did you even get to drive that beast? More importantly were you on the way to my house to let me borrow your ride when this happened? Cause I would just feel awful if you were. Haha. Anyways, let us know how it turns out.

My personal Z does not.

https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....14#post1295814


However, the company Z has much more than 600 HP. Actually right now we're at 510 to the wheel on 14lbs of boost. we have the ability to turn it up to 28lbs. The car has EVERYTHING done to it that you can imagine for the track. Anyone interested in seeing a Z burn down everything, and I mean and I mean EVERYTHING on the track including Porsche’s, Lamborghini’s, Ferrari’s, Vipers, Vette's, whatever, email me for date's on when we're going to the track.

Going this weekend.

http://www.speedventures.net/2-26-2005_event.asp


This is about a 3-4 hour drive (if your pulling a trailer like we are). If you've never driven on a track before, it's AWESOME. Absolutely incredible. You should sign up. It's worth it.

rob and jim...i think i told you about this.

who wants to go? i don't really want to go by myself. Z's are welcome.

So sorry to hear about the wreck. To say I know" exactly" how you feel would be an accurate statement because the Twisted Z II was wrecked on Sunday night because of a Freeway spinout on standing water as well. The whole back passenger side front and rear are history'RacingHart wheels and tires, body kit, A arms and suspension,and maybe the Stillen exhaust. I hit the center divider wall so hard, the drivers set was tweeked over about 10 degrees.

The body shop has it now and were awaiting the insurance companies adjustors to eyeball it.

I'm sure Turbonetics will do right by you( there a great company) and this is no consulation but at least the driver and I have to share some physical pain ( I now have a little whiplash in my neck area) Call the driver to see if he's still oK...That would be the class thing to do.

Looking at your damage pics, I've got you by at least 6K in damages.. Goodluck with your insurance company I expect to take a 3-4 K hit on the Mod upgrades the insurance might not cover.
