yeah.. hopefully it's not too major.

but kjb_r33 is right, ebay isn't always a bad place to look for skyline miscellaneous parts. I picked up a set of spare lower arms for my r32 the other day for a silly price, just in case.

In this situation you've basically got lower control arms, upper control arms, tie rods, and at worse steering rack that need to be inspected and/or replaced. Each are usually a couple of hundred bucks. As long as you haven't bent the chasis, I wouldn't imagine it costing more than $1000 to replace what needs to be replaced.

yeah well i dontknwo abotu the chassis yet, when i try to drive it forward and back, it makes a terrible scraping sound near the rear brakes.

You can come down to my workshop and throw it up on the hoist, then we can see what wrong with it.
