It still dosn't look that bad in the pictures, But I can't even get the door open or the ttop off.

[Rnz520]

omg :(. such a pretty car. I had no idea the subframe was that strong as to just tear the diff case like that.

[allntrlundrgrnd]

Do me a favor?
Tell me more about what actually took place, and explain to me how much more than a set of Rota or Sportmaxx wheels you actually paid for these "custom 4-piece wheels..." See, I am a "live and let die" type of person, but I live for the moment that I can SHOW people who claim some moral high ground over people are more often than not without ANY issue simply seeking a look, and not eliteness but refuse to just leave shit the fuck alone (and no, I do not own Rota or Sportmaxx). This is an unfortunate other side, but "custom 4-piece wheels" seems to smack of what SHOULD be the other side of peoples' argument...

[drftwerks]

WHEW-- GOOD THING IT WASNT A S13, S14, S15, r32, r33, r34, r35, g35, g37, 350z, 370z, s30

[HS13KLS]

wow...

yea. im curious to see what type of wheels those were too!!
what exactly happend...
sorry man

[johngriff]

If it cracked/broke the diff out of the subframe, it doesn't matter what type of wheels they were.

The body damage doesn't look too bad, maybe those old Z's are safe-er cars.

[burnsauto]

wait... are we ragging on him because of his wheels? I think he was just making a joke about the "custom 4 piece" thing..ya know.. the wheel broke into 4 pieces?

to the OP: parting it out? (:keke, sorry - had to ask)

[sr20boostn20]

raw deal, gotta pay to play i guess.


but for real, i guess its on to a new project hope your back at the track soon.

[LA_phantom_240]

WE can make better, faster, stronger.... and more JDM.

[racepar1]

That sucks man. I mean it is technically fixable, but the buckling by the wheelwell pretty much writes it off. Such a shame! What happened anyways?

[S13Boosts]

its fixable! but than this comes in place $

[luftrofl]

I've seen ads for cars that look like that on craigslist under "project car/needs work - $4000!!!!"

[articdragon192]

Hehe, FYI, you pics showed up on 300zxClub as a deterrent to stop drifting Z32s. So stupid. Glad to hear you're ok though. Keep doing your thing though.

[drftwerks]

ok for those that neg repped me, is it something special im missing about the car? looks NA to me, doesnt look terribly preped for said drifting, plus you make more money parting these cars out, than actually selling them whole.

its drifting, it happens, could have just put these pics in pic thread.

[!Zar!]

I think he meant, "Custom 4 piece" because they broke into four pieces...

[Dousan_PG]

yeah exactly haha i was gonna say.......

anywyas. too bad looks like a good hit!

did u get it on video? then its all worth it!!!

[sldbyuramg]

wtf are you talking about, moral high ground...enliteness? they are custom because they broke into 4 pieces...what are you smoking

[Boost Almighty]

Ouch, this was one of my favorite z too. Good luck on the new build !

[SC_S13]

philip is probably drunk haha :-D

uhhhhhhhh.

you can get those at discount for 100$ a peice. they're one peice, and the custom 4 peice wheel was a joke.

philip is probably drunk haha :-D

either that or he sucks at cars...


...

[Phlip]

Who knows, sometimes even I miss the bad jokes, even when I am sober... Hey, shit happens and then we get over it.
Perhaps I should have been drunk, I was bored.

[allntrlundrgrnd]

is there even such thing as 4-piece wheels? lol

[Suk02Si]

This story sucks.

[kognition]

Dammmmmn! You were drifting a Z32? No drift setup? You are a brave man Sir and i tip my hat off to you. Don't show these pics to Charles (Powertrix) he will have a heart attack. :rolleyes:

[flip3d]

damn d00d. RIP Z32.

[exitspeed]

I get Phlips point though. I thought the same thing the first time I read it.

People on here make it seem that Rota's are the only wheel that can break...

[driftermic]

wow to bad about your car, but shit happens, can your car be repaired or is it going to the junkyard.

[A Spec Products]

Main thing is that you are okay

[Mongooze]

Wow I totally forgot about this thread.

To answer some on your questions, the car was totaled, stripped its guts made some money and junked the shell.

As for the "custom wheels" they were just spares I didn't care much for them, funny thing is I sold them 10 min before my run to my buddy who was also driving.

New news, On a new z32 shell and after going through some things I got the car where I want it.

Pics and proper intro coming soon.

Thanks guys.

[tricky_ab]

Nice to see that you're still around after all this time...
