I got off highway 23 in eastern kentucky two nights ago.
It had been raining and I knew I was taking the off ramp too fast.
I didn't slow down though.
So my bald tires instantly slid out the rear and no amount of countersteering could prevent the car from sliding the rest of the way around.
Took out a road sign with the radiator and hit the light pole on the side of the road.
At first it looked alright, but after removing the front fender I could see the frame was bent in at the corner of the fender and the door.
I had grown tired of the car and had become careless.
I stopped caring if it started or not.
I sort of feel like I did this on purpose.
I sold the car the day I wrecked it for 300 dollars.
It would have honestly only cost me 300 dollars to fix all the damage.
Anyways, just figured I'd let everyone know I'm buying a z31 and dropping a 13b-rew into it this winter.

 

Pics?

 

^+1


Live and learn I guess.

 

+2

 

pics or it didnt happen

 

$300 instead of part out?

 

I used to own a z31 turbo. Please dont put a 13b in there.. (And i love rotaries)
You will find the vg30et is more than enough engine to play with. Great torque and very
little lag. I used to fly around 45 mph traffic in 4th with ease. And the sound of a vg30et will grown on you.

 

you couldn't do the upkeep on a fc and now u want a z31 rotary project? A bit redundant don't you think.

 

They took all the 80's ugly away from the FC, and put it towards the z31. Seriously, everything ugly from the 80's is in the z31's and 80's vettes lol. I still love z31's though.

 

^ I hate 80s vettes. Never liked them as a kid either.

 

Dude. Z31's are big electrical messes. Don't do it.

 

**** yea they are and it gets worse with the z32

 

I've not owned a Z32, but the Z31 my ex and I had was the worst car ever. I hated that car. It was slow, handled horribly compared to the FC, and just felt uncomfortable to drive in general.

 

Well, this lasted for three days.
I woke up feeling horrible.
The guy I sold the car to is in jail.
I'm currently trying to buy the car back from him (I'm hoping he needs his money back).
I can't stay away from the seven.
Bunnybunny, please message me about those parts if you wanna sell them.
I'll post pictures soon...

 

I wanna find one of those for cheap. And slide it into walls. Hard. Its a gm so it surely must be indestructible.



Worse than FC's?
I heard the climate control in those are all vacuum actuated. Do not want.

 

Slitherz I'll have a southern vert shell to sell a little later in the summer..or just as soon as I can get the LSD diff off and swap my springs and shocks.

 

I didn't dig that deep. But NOTHING electrical worked right, and anytime we did fix something, something else went wrong. It was never-ending problems.

I'm not even sure what happened to the car. Going down the road, shuttered to a stop, and never started back. Was getting fuel, spark, AND compression.

 

You want to buy back a wrecked car? just go buy a clean chassis and have at it.

 

Should we feel bad for you? You even know the accident happened because of your bald rear tires. Good luck with your next project!

 

Still no pics?

 

well take the time you need to regroup then come back when ready

 

Yeah... sorry about still not posting pictures.
I've been really busy.
My door finally closes all the way.
I've got new struts/springs on the way ( one of mine broke about 3/4 of the way down giving me some wicked positive camber).
Replacing the windshield here in a few days.
And hopefully picking up a fender and a door when I get paid.
The frame isn't too bad so I'll just ignore it for now.
In the mean time I've done more weight reduction and not having the car for a whole week....
Well, it gave me that feeling we all got the first time we sat in a fc and then redlined it very soon after sitting.
