Crashed at 110 mph, pt 2 [pics]

Pictures can be found at:

It felt rotten seeing my car today. It was like saying goodbye to an old friend, but I had to see it in such dismal shape. I could have sat in that broken drivers' seat for days, silent...

There will be another.

Now I know why I had had a hard time finding a nice one. Exactly half of the ones my mechanic looked over for me were wrecked.

I think the confusing part is that there are two separate threads when there should be only one. That messed me up initially too. I don't know why the pics were posted in this thread as opposed to the original thread. They are, indeed, sad though. Bummer, dude.

What the FUKC kind of tires are those!?! All season H-speed rating (what, up to 65 mph?!) tires are NOT meant to be pushed at all! Man, I have no idea what you were thinking!
Any suspension mods? ... actually, any mods OTHER than interior/sound???

Those are Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's.. 205/60R15. The tire damage is from sliding over a curb, through some grass, and over another curb, sideways.

Wow--that's quite a jolt to the rear. I'm very glad your front didn't hit that pole--it would have hurt you pretty bad. How's your neck & back feeling? Mine hurt just looking at those pics. Sorry to hear about the loss

Plano. Believe me, that car meant more to me almost than *I* mean to me. I babied that car... even gave it a kiss goodnight. I will have another S13 but it will never be the same...

And I won't be hitting the speed limiter while cornering on public roads either. I need to take it to the track.

haha, my cousin took out 3 integras in one year. Wrapped one around a tree, another around a light pole. Forget what happened to the last one. I think he just fugged it up pretty bad.
