well nothing too major but not currently in drivable condition due to no coolant you'll see as to why. Well i got into an accident. Honestly i know i was being irresponsible but i was in emotional distress not that exactly justifies my actions but rather explains to why this mightve happen. Its girl related i suppose thats enough said. But heres the story i was about to get gas i was driving pretty calmly but then as i was making a left the "girl problems" got into my head so i started accelerating through the turn i was in second gear i wasn't flooring it though but well i guess i gave to much power to the rear wheels and gave too much traction to accelerate and started to oversteer. I tried as i might to regain control but pretty much as my course followed an "S" pattern. I did just that into the side walk. I blew out my rear left tire and cracked the rim, i blew my left front suspension, my car was pissing coolant, and im guessing that i broke my exhaust hanger cuz now my exhaust has some freeplay. Not a whole lot different but hangs noticibly different. My car is lowered to about im guessing is about 3-4" from the ground and went over a curb thats about im guessing 5-6" in height im not sure if the numbers are eactly correct but the curb was higher than my car by maybe an inch or two. Past the curb is a bunch of grass thats maybe at 20-30 degree angle. I think i mightve hit the curb at 15-20 mph. I can't say exactly thats just my estimates it happened so fast. It was nighttime and i barely got back from getting it towed back to my house. So i haven't been able to see the extent of the damages but hopefully from my estimates. I mightve just busted the lower radiator hose. Couldn't see much else under the car hopefully that undercarriage panel thing did a good job of protecting from at least anything catching the curb to tear anything loose cuz i didn't see anything other than my front lip on the site of the accident. The body is ok and the front bumper moved a little bit meaning from the headlights theres a little more space than there was before. My question is though based on my story what other damages mightve occured or i should look for as far as the undercarriage is concerned. I apologize for my actions. For the most part i dont do things like this but as i said i was emotionally distressed. I know i shouldn't drive being under these conditions but i was doing ok for most of the day. Went to the gym to burn off some steam drove calm after up until that point where i messed up. I take full responsibility so please i dont want any reprimands about this. i realized what i did wrong and hopefully its a lessoned learned. I know our cars numbers are dwindling and i dont want to contribute to that as much as possible. I guess im ranting alot becuz i feel really bad as to what happened. But please if anyone can help me with a little advice as far as the damages that occured or mightve occurred please let me know. Thank You

 

geez's...........IF YOU PART IT LET ME KNOW

 

<Sigh>....


I stopped reading after the first sentence. My head started to hurt. Quoted from a different thread:

 

Sorry but I will have to agree with saxyman... couldn't keep reading the thread.

 

Doubt it's the lower rad hose.....sounds like you may have busted your radiator core.

No woman/silly little girl is worth damaging your FD over.

 

I agree with ^, cause bitches come and go, and no matter what, my FD will always be my no.1 lady that i could come back too.

Sounds like busted radiator to me too. Id check ur AC too cuase you could have busted the condenser if you busted ur radiator too. suspension work is easy to fix.

 

I'm with these guys...couldn't read the entire thing.

but what a waste...from what I did read.

 

you need to buy some paragraphs before you start buying parts for the FD...

sorry to hear btw

 

That really sucks man. No need to apologize to us, it's your car and your money involved. Don't worry about the girl situation, less money spent on a girl, more money for the FD

 

haha, its funny how i did the same thing everyone else did. . . structure is the key.

coolant. . . probably is the radiator. it sits low, so its understandable that it would be cracked. also, check the coolant overflow tank. it sits low as well.

 

I hope the damage is minimal. Women can be a real pain in the *** sometimes....

 

Crashed your car, and crying about it here. What an idiot!!

Let me guess, you are 18 years old, and have only had the car for a short time. What a surprise that you wrecked it. Glad you are OK, and I hope you learned something from this.

 

hey hey, i guess you guys wouldnt be to fond of me telling you guys im 15 and have a single turbo rx7 waiting for me to go crazy on when i turn 16

 

bitches will come and go, it's only certain an FD will always be there to **** you....

I sure love run-on sentences though, should be default forum policy.

 

LOL! I also just skipped over to next post..

 

Where is this money coming from? Damn im 23 and my fd is still stock!

 

I was jk. haha im 19 and i bust my *** off working

 

hehe, well then. . . im 13, have a hardship license and i use my fd to pound the streets in a very unprofessional manner!!!

 

I guess you guys wouldn't like me saying im 13 and have a scoot 4 rotor FD waiting for me then huh. Quad turbo

 

im gonna have to call you out on that one, man!!! there is NO way you actually have one of those waiting on you!!! geh, stupid freaking kids!!! i swear man, this forum is going to the dumps!!!

 

call me out sucka just wait till I rip by you yo, I LIVE FOR THIS ****

 

Sorry if my ranting structure didn't meet most of ur guys format standards but anyways update i looked under the car today and the radiator is bent back at about a 50 degree angle from the original position. what problems does this hold? So im guessing that the radiator mounts are way out of whack and some of the hard piping thats around it. Do you guys think the intercooler got damaged? its a stock one. Im just curious that can all this be repaired very well? Hopefully should everything be put back to spec that i wont have any overheating problem or cooling issues. Thx

 

I did the same damage, poped the core. Bent the mounts which also hold the sway bar. Had to replace the mounts and the radiator.

Do not drive when your pissed, I have learned my lesson at a much greater cost. Its not worth the damage to yourself, your vehical, the people you love, and the people who you hurt by doing so.

 

Sucks to hear that man. Good luck fixing everything. It's really hard to say what's wrong with your car without seeing it. Post photos if you want useful input of what might be damaged.

-s-

 

haha people have been saying that since the beginning of time. UR STILL HERE!
