!Wrong Place Wrong Time!

[sting2343]

So i was driving to water polo practice and i see some guy just randomly swerve through the center emergency/turn lane into oncoming traffic in front of me and hit a clean ass mustang cobra at about 55mph. He trashed the mustang, losing his wheel but still sliding into me to then continue on and hit another car. So all in all there were 4 cars involved. All of them were totaled. As of right now, i dont know what is going on insurance wise but i may be parting out my car soon and looking for a s14 kouki with a swap....sr or rb...it just sucked that i had to be in the wrong place at the wrong time,

sorry to hear about that man.

That is some serious steering angle though.

[ObleZk]

This brings tears to my eyes...


Damn..........

[SexPanda]

this should prolly be in off topic... but that sucks. I seriously doubt insurance will cover that. Thats alot of damage to the frame, a new door alone is a grand from nissan...

Your looking at 6 or 7 grand worth of damage, with the frame straitened, and a new door and paint... your car's worth maybe 5. Take the check they cut you, buy back your car, part it out, find an s13. Thats the best advice I can give you.

[aNskY]

this was god's way of punishing you for actually playing competitive water polo

[sting2343]

yah does anyone know what the buy back is on a car like mine

[WERDdabuilder]

edit: damn aNskY beat me to it ha.

fake that neck/back injury for that $cam Ca$h.

[ObleZk]

Yeah I saw the car in person, it's pretty messed up. We are going to take a look under the car tomorrow to see how messed up that is down there.

Other than that, Buy yourself an S13 like Johns or get an S14 and well start over

[SexPanda]

yah does anyone know what the buy back is on a car like mine

With my insurance company they give you what its worth in "used" condition. My s13 was worth 1100 according to State Farm. I got the hartford now, Im much happier with them... But yeah, if you got 4 grand out of your car I wouldnt be suprised. buy it back for... maybe 1500, then part it out. looks like you got 3 good fn01rc's, a good door, some interior, and a KA24DE. Those are like gold these days.

[silnismo]

Dam, sorry for your lost but looks to me it might be fixable.

Swap front crossmember and driver side FLCA, tie rods, fender door rim.

[ObleZk]

I call Dibs on your Recaro's foo

[s13 @ fullboost]

Sorry to hear that man it makes me sad to know that it could happen to any of us =/

[aNskY]

he'd be out about a grand after selling that stuff on Zilvia. :fawkd:

[ObleZk]

lol thats probably true...

Maybe better luck on Craigslist?

[patriot]

damn man that sucks sry man.

[downshift_sideways]

Sorry to hear about your car man. That really sucks.

Any deaths involving the accident?

I'm with wedabuilder.

do wathca gotta do to hustle the situation. You MIGHT get back everything through insurance.

[WangonwWarrior]

another clean zenki claimed:wtc:

[da1ndonly]

damn that sucks know how it feels. makes me sad to think about this.

[sting2343]

Na there were no fatalities and thank god for the driver that he hurt himself and the firefighters got to him first cause if i would have gotten to him he would have left the seen in a body bag....im still trying to figure out why he did it...cause the police wont give me any info as to what evidence they have or anything

[miravete]

everything happens for a reason....maybe it was the right place at the right time.

insurance is going to pay you, youll get a new car, and you can still make profit off your car by parting it out.

think positive.

youre alive arent ya?

who survives a front end collision in the lane youre supposed to drive in?

[ObleZk]

Lets Sue this dumbass... maybe he was depressed and wanted to end his horrid life.

or maybe he really really hates Ford Cobra's. and you just so happened to be in the crossfire...

[sting2343]

yah this is true...im so thankful to be alive...i have a feeling its cause my dad is still watching over me...RIP2005...and hopefully i can get a sweet ass ride..

[ObleZk]

yah this is true...im so thankful to be alive...i have a feeling its cause my dad is still watching over me...RIP2005...and hopefully i can get a sweet ass ride..

That reminds me. we should pull out your rear windshield so that sticker doesn't go to waste.

[luftrofl]

Ouch... makes you wonder if our driving tests are too easy (they are).

[jspec240]

Same thing happened to me and I got a FREE kouki front (pretty much) :) GLW your insurance sometimes they can be a bitch...

Ouch... makes you wonder if our driving tests are too easy (they are).

[sting2343]

The car before the crash...plus its the other side...Im waiting on getting the police report to get all the accident photos...but ill post all those too...later

[blu808]

Dude. Really sorry again about your car. But to be honest that chassis is done bro. Completely done.


Not tryin to hate or anything, but yea. its a gonner.

[Joshkl]

damn srry to hear about this. what part of sd did this happen in?

[sting2343]

it happened in Vista...on E Vista Way and Anza...and it was in the middle of the day like at 12

[s13dan]

I see these things all the time... some crazed escort, or v6 stang owner tries to off a saleen or cobra and a innocent nissan gets wiped out with it.. its a damn shame sorry bout your car.

[ericcastro]

Be positive.

It gives you a chance to build a new car without the monster TACH thats sitting inches from where the stock one is :keke:

[Om1kron]

holy shit! poor car!

[twistedsymphony]

just get it aligned... it'll be good as new :hahano:

Seriously though, I hate to see this stuff... only so many of these cars around and it seems like it's always the clean ones that get destroyed :(

I'm so paranoid about the insurance on my car, at least my company lets me specify the value of my modifications so if it gets totaled they give me what it's ACTUALLY worth as opposed to some stupid book value thats way below what it would cost to buy another one.

I wish you the best of luck... if they try to low-ball you on the reimbursement challenge them to find another one, same year, color, and condition, for sale in your area at that price... and don't let up until they give you what it's worth.

[JJ240]

Yeah you should be able to come out allright...you aren't dealing with your insurance company, but his. You can push alot harder when the accident is someone elses fault. Make sure you get what you deserve out of his company or threaten to get a lawyer. Follow through if the threat doesn't pan out.

[sting2343]

the worst part about this is that i cant even file my claim yet cause the police held the information of everybody for 7-10 days...so i have to wait and be out a car till then since this was my daily

[azndoc]

Damn that sucks.

Hope everything works out for you insurance wise.

[mkiv98]

its ok as long as you didnt get hurt, you can always get a better car

[OBEEWON]

Soft tissue damage will take you places.

[emayearecee]

^ hahahaha

you can very well take advantage of this!

best of luck on the settlements!

[n240sxfnatic]

Shit will buff out

[jackjack]

hot damn

wow that sucks

glad you're ok though

[illvialuver]

posi for you for, haveing a black zenki like me, and playing waterpolo and just cause something good has to come from it. sorry to hear about your ish

[sting2343]

thanks for comments and concerns...i love the 240 community

[blueshark123]

rent a car then sue them for the cost or his insurance should cover it

[SexPanda]

damn that car was so clean too... sorry again man.

[zylvia213]

insuranceses are wack they are a hassle. Do exactly as people have been saying. Have the insurance company pay you off what ever your car is worth and buy it back.... part it out and get yourself another one. Time for a new begining, it sucks but hey you get to build a better one. Cars come and go aslong as you ok bro.

[bbejj123]

what i would do is make a list of all the parts u have installed aftermarket and oem and get the prices for all the parts and then get a couple of prices of cars like yours off the internet or whatever and get all this on paper add up the total and then once the insurance guy comes to check it out if he hasnt already give him the information.

This should help you either get a bigger check or maybe get ur car fixed...

sucks to hear about that and good luck!

[Bomber 570]

Just give it to me, I could fix that.

[SixSpeedSleuth]

Damn bro, that really sucks. But, if it was me, I would have a KILLER neck and backache in the morning. Just to make sure things went my way. :bigok:

[doubleRJE]

Get your car back, part it out, keep the ka and put it in a rolling chassis from here, and in the near future, slap on a turbo and accessories

[Future240]

sorry bout the car man, hopefully insurance doesnt do you too bad. i hope that asshole who hit yall has to pay for all of yalls cars plus some

[JVD]

yah does anyone know what the buy back is on a car like mine
My insurance company told me I COULDN'T buy my car back. I kept harassing them. Phoned the towing company and found out what action it was going to. I bought back my S14 SE for $300. All I had to do is match the highest bid of the auction and it was mine again. I sold the coilovers the next day for like $1k. LOL. Well worth it.

Oh, and if the insurance company lowballs you, be persistent. Show them what other S14's sell for. Make sure you get enough cash. I showed my insurance company a bunch of S14's for sale and they eventually gave me more than their initial quote.

[lflkajfj12123]

i hate seeing s14's wrecked

not as much as s13's though lol

[TravisSW]

jebus f'ing chrissy

Any more down the chassis and you might of been a goner. Sorry for your car man, but you'll rebuild. I know that I'd be probably in tears and practically homocidal.

Shame to see another 240 go like that, unless if somebody has the equipment/money to make it prime again.

At least you are all right though, no major injuries? Just shaken up?

But if you part out still. Can I get dibs on the trunk and bumper front signals? :D

[ESmorz]

Ok so I more than glanced at the pics this time and that chassis can't be salvaged.

Sucks. Milk the injury! Make that money.

So I guess this means you won't be cruisin de luz any time soon? haha

On another note, I'm barely ever in Vista and I've seen two gnar gnar binks accidents on E Vista Way.

[driven_]

we all know, it shouldve been a ricer with a honda.

Lol jk.

but damn.

makes me want to go out to the garage and hug my rustbucket zenki.

my condolences to your car and your father

[DrftKingIII]

Glad youre okay man. Good luck on however it plays out.

-Mike

[sting2343]

yah my friend who is a chiropractor is going to look at me and try to find something to get me more money...haha...and i found out that it was the wife who was driving...its just another reason why women shouldn't drive...and yah im still shooken up from the whole thing and just still in shock that it all happened this way

[ObleZk]

This is What I pulled off the NCT News Website. Wish they had a little more info about it lol...



VISTA ---- Ten people were treated for injuries after a four-car crash on Vista surface streets Saturday, authorities said.

The pile-up was reported at 890 E. Vista Way at 11:42 a.m., a fire dispatcher said. Medics treated 10 people for injuries, and four ambulances carried an unknown number of patients to Palomar Medical Center in Escondido and Tri-City Medical Center in Oceanside, the dispatcher said.

The southbound lanes of East Vista Way were closed at Vale Terrace for several hours for an investigation, a Sheriff's Department official said.

Further information was not available Saturday.

[flip3d]

wow. sue the fucking pants off that guy.

[sting2343]

(I didn't bother reading through the thread again, but here goes...)

If the accident isn't your fault...

WTF, that's bullshit.

If its HER fault, she is BY LAW required to pay you the value determined by YOUR insurance.

Contact your lawyer, or your insurance company, although it may be too late.

[240SX007]

Man that sucks!!! Well it could have been alot worse thank god no one died...
