Holy smokes. Details pat? That looks really bad and scary. Genesis safety gets a thumb up since you came out fine.

In all seriousness, that looks really bad and to come out of that and still be able to even post here is incredible. Hopefully there were little no to injuries, and no permanent ones.

I got out almost completely unscathed. Just a couple of tiny cuts from crawling out of the window. I am pretty damn sore today though. Trying to get all of the insurance stuff figured out now.

Default New Z owner in DFW

Glad I found this thread although it doesn't seem to have been active lately.

Just bought an 03 touring model. Would like finding out about local shops for any mods I may wanna do. First thing will probably be a new sound system since I heard the Bose 'blose'......

Have put in many stereos but with a complete rebuild, would rather have someone that has tore into a Z before.

Any input is appreciated.

I was awoken by one here freshman year. Felt like someone was shaking my bed back and forth. I think there have a couple since, but I didn't feel them.

the weekends get kinda slow on here, and there were a couple of events this weekend.. congrats on purchase, you will like the car alot, but be warned..once you start modding IT NEVER STOPS

i have a speaker box that fits under the rear strut bar that holds 2 tens that i will let go of cheap, decided against adding all that weight. if/when you replace the head unit, make sure you use the factory ears for the new radio

That was a pretty small one IMO...but coming from LA and being in several large earthquakes...I'm not impressed.

Earthquakes are fun to be in...but can be very scary also.
Kinda like being close to a tornado....but not actually hurt by it.

If it isn't above a 4.5 or higher then it won't cause any damage.
