Lost another kouki today. :(
So I wrecked my car on my way home tonight. I just lost it in a straight doing about 35 getting up to speed. It was wet and cold. I honestly do not know what happened. It slightly kicked out and then i over corrected and it spun and i hit a tree going backwards. Pics to come tomorrow. Damage I can see it's gonna get totaled. Front passenger wheel broke, Front end is fine. Rear end drivers side is smashed in. Rear windom shattered. Trunk is crushed in on the drivers side. Looks like it warped the frame to the drivers side.

For the amount of damage described sounds like you were going faster than 35mph
SR? open diff? The rear end on my first hatch was tail happy in rainy conditions then. |

sorry to hear mand, it really suks wen something like this happens
same thing happened to me basically, going around a turn, just got my zenki back on the road, and i guess i was going a lil too fast about 35, and i might have hit a small patch of black ice, didnt check, wasnt really thinking straight, too worried about my car, and the tail kicked out and i over corrected hit a curb, front lip cracked in half, front and rear passenger wheels pushed in and bent, front passenger tire came off rim, luckly, the frame looked fine, only thing tht looks shot are my passenger wheels and suspension

Wow, sorry to hear that bro. But like ppl said before, atleast you are alive and healthy. The car is material and your live is more important. I know it's hard, but look at it from the good side. GL bro!

damn that sucks. From your description seems like it will get totalled, but as the people said above, it could have been worse. At least your alright. Post some pictures of the aftermath.

Yeah, it could have been soo soo soo much worse. Accident won't get reported I don't thinnk so it may still be a clean title.... lol Anyway I don't know what I"m going to do right now. I'm in schoo so I don't have the time to start over with her.... I'm glad I'm alive. Not a scratch on me. A little sore but I was cutting and splitting wood the past two days so I think that has more to do with it than the wreck. I'm about to head down to the tow place to get it.... I dunno what I'm gonna do with her..... Maybe if I can find a good kouki or zenki shell I can start over with it..... I don't wanna start over. A buddy a mine had a s14, still does actually, his was also rear end happy in the rain.
