Crashed my 370z Nismo yesterday.

maybe a possible misunderstanding of new car "break-in" maybe he thought he had to "break" it.... or pull the e-"Brake"

If I ever wreck my car I am not telling you guys cause you're brutal (honest, but brutal). Good luck with the repairs OP, no more Tokyo drift for you

Funny, I crashed my Nismo a while back. Also said a dog had crossed the road. That fictitious dog really works well for your Claim. Better then | reason for crash: Being a retard and attempting corners at dumbf##k speeds. No e-brake for me tho.

Anyway... I know EXACTLY how you feel. Not many people can say that. My car drives fine, 18.5k and 3 months later. No frame damage to mine just rear suspension and everything had to be replaced. Couple airbags ect...

Take a gander at some pics... They are brothers!

Holy ****... we thought you deleted your account after that wreck.

Haha no, I was trying to in case of liability ect. But now its clear, and all taken care of. No Z for 3 months makes you not so active as a board member. That and you guys are pretty harsh. But live and learn, do it better, not faster.

Thanks bro for sharing your experience... it hurts but I'm pretty sure the frame was not affected... how long did they take to repair yours?

rockhounds · 05-03-2010, 09:46 PM

You guys could take it as a good opportunity to create a real discussion on how to introduce the car and the real risks on driving in some ways, that would be really better than this fool comments...

And we would be better served with you off the road. Menace.

NYBladeZ · 05-03-2010, 09:57 PM

3 months? Not bad that'll put the OP back on the road early August. Moral of the story don't drift on side streets you're one curb hop for a summer long Z vacation.

nogoodname · 05-03-2010, 09:58 PM

Damn, that sucks that it won't be totaled... If you plan on not selling it, guess that's alright.

hazzazi · 05-03-2010, 10:28 PM

why is it always a nismo crashing?...

anyways, glad ur okay

rockhounds · 05-04-2010, 09:07 AM

Thanks

NYBladeZ · 05-03-2010, 11:52 PM

I guess they think those suspension mods make them superior and better able to handle the stupidity of drifting on the street.

CrownR426 · 05-04-2010, 12:08 AM

No upgrades to my suspension but my baby can handle!
You guys have to learn how to control a z sideways before trying stupid ****.
Glad you're okay but im sorry it's not totaled...
