i dont think i can drive it, i can turn the steering wheel one way but not the other and i coudlnt get it outta the ditch, i had to call my mate who is a tow truck driver at 3am to come get me out.... as far as i can see there is no panel damage, but that is the least of my worries atm. i bent the cat back exhaust

Tough luck Darren

crashes suck big time, did you lose the front bar as well?

there is no panel damage at all, the front bar has a scrape on it nothing major, the front wheels wont turn one way soid say the steering is fingered, and im pretty sure i looped it before i went into the ditch, and hit a concrete storm water pipe, smashed up the kakimoto exhuast underneath, its all bent, i think it took most of the hit, but im hoping the diff and rear axle didnt hit the pipe either, if so that woulda maybe bent the chassis and other expensive stuff.

damn mate thats a killer

if you were in brissy i'd be more than happy to give u a hand, but seeing as ur up there wont be able to

i've got a few bits and pieces from my 33 that u can have...aftermarket front pipe, tail shaft, diff thats blown (can use the housing if urs has cracked)

    • I clean my wheels every time I wash the car, I also clean the barrels, the only product I use on the wheels is truck wash and a pressure washer, followed by (inset your chosen name brand) wash and wax, time per wheel is probably 2 minutes total, cleaning the barrels is easy with one of these microfibre thingies on a stick from Sabco, they're also great for getting in between the front guards and body, and tight spots in the engine bay  
    • An updated post here. Sounds to me like there's definitely a bit of sketchiness here.  Old mate with 10 rusting Torana's in the front yard might be more who they're focussed on. (For right or wrong).
    • Is this not just about people wrecking, and storing, multiple cars in their front yard? I now a tow truck driver that was contracted by the council to clean up housing commission front and rear yards in houses and unit car parks I'm all for working on, and doing maintenance on your car in your garage or driveway, but some people definitely take the piss  There's one house locally to me that I walk past regularly where the front yard and driveway looks like a wreckers, multiple cars in various stages of being stripped, and the yard looks like all of fluids are basically dumped on the ground I may be wrong, but it seems that the initial reports, which I've seen nothing actually official about yet, may be getting taken out of context, like alot of the latest "the sky is falling" stuff found on the youtubes for clicks
    • have they? Link appreciated. I live in Casey. I can see both sides of the argument in this case. There's a lot of sketchy stuff going on. There needs to be a clear definition of what this is supposed to be IMO. I wager the intent was to be a broad sweeping brush against people who have 4 cars up on blocks on their front lawn, not someone who services their own car behind their own gate on a weekend bothering probably nobody. But it'd be hard to legislate the difference there.
    • Oh, the wheels were already off. I wouldn't normally take them off to clean them although it does make it easier with the ceramic, so I might take them off when reapplying. I don't drive much but now with the ceramic coat, when I do drive and they get dirty I can get most off with the pressure washer. I'll be switching to dirtier pads soon which was the motivation for the ceramic as I usually just clean them and sometimes use Autoglym wheel protector. Nah, f**k the barrels! Haha, I'll give them a quick scrub when they're off the car and a pressure wash, but even I draw the line with the barrels. Yes, dark coloured wheels allow you to get away with a lot!
