<p>Where do supercars go when they die? Some sacrilegious blend between Heaven and Hell where they get chopped up into little bits, but are then given a chance to give other supercars a new lease on life. One such Nissan GT-R met its demise far too young in its life. With only 4,000km on the odometer, some fool t-boned it and it was a goner. In came Australian motorsport outfit <a href="http://www.justjap.com/">Just Jap Racing</a>, who took the wrecked GT-R and cut it down to use as for spare parts for their racing program. </p>
<p>Not quite the first GT-R roadster as some would believe, but something far more important: Proof that, for Japanese sportscars at least, there is life after death.</p>

P.S. Sucks to be the guy who crashed into it. I know his insurance is like " and you couldn't crash into a 92 civic or something? You had to crash into a super car?"

I hope that guy had good insurance, the law only requires 50k worth of liability insurance.

Looks like the seats are gone. Would've called dibs on those.

On a serious note, that sucks.

I find it very ironic that in a wave of very common vehicles such as Civics and Corollas, unique or less common cars get hit more often. Just something I personally observed.
