no insurance on a car like that and beleiving u will never need it is pretty gullable. i wouldnt drive a 5k car without insurance, little own something worth 18k :)

looks like a mess, hope u get ya mate to pay for it, and maybe get him to sell his car and buy a bunky to get money quicker?? why on earth would u drive stupid in a mates car (thats uninsured) is beyond me

Well as everyone has said lucky your not hurt.

But im guessin you can't do or expect to much from your mate as by the looks of the damage you guys were fair flying, and guessing again you'd have given him permission to do so.....?

Nah we weren't really going quick hey, lost it around the turn about 60-70 k's, I said when we got in the car take it easy you crash it you own it.

This wasn't no mountain run fun thing, he says he thought it was a different turn which is why he went into a bit to quick.

PSI_GTSII "guessin you can't do or expect to much from your mate"

your kidding right? so if you jump in someones car and you crashed it you wouldn't expect to pay for the damage you caused?

I feel your pain man.

same thing happened to me bout 1 1/2 years ago.. i had a 94 starlet gt (back then they were worth bout 15,000) and my mate drove it into a fence... i also had no insurance as i didnt think i would ever need it. Worse yet he bailed on me, ive never seen him since and havnt seen a cent for the car.

Hope everything works out for ya

okay since no one else has done it yet ....

That'll buff right out :)

no insurance as i didnt think i would ever need it

Whats up with this ... is it the new way of saying that I couldn't afford insurance and therefore the car?

What happens if you run into a Merc or a porsche or something??

my parents crashed our tarago. the entire drivers side half of the car was pretty much ruined, similar to yours, however we had insurance. i think in total the cost would have been 15k had we not had insurance.

the side damage was similar to yours, but we didn't have any frontal or engine damage (although both doors needed to be replaced, as well as the front and rear lights).

i think in your case it would be better to strip the parts, and then collect the difference from your friend as with the money it'll cost to repair your car, you could have bought another gtr already.

I dont think the car can be repaired anyway, the c pilar is dented and thats part of the chassis, meaning structurally it might never be engineerable again even if it was repaired.

your best bet is to part it out.

I know you might not want to hear this already, but what do you want for the wreck and if you dont want to sell the whole wreck to me (I am willing to strip it myself as I need some parts myself) what do you want for the engine, intake side of things (fuel rail, injectors, plenum) gearbox, engine harness and all the pipework (thats still intact) for the engine. (Dont need turbos, exhaust, FMIC etc) Can discuss via PM if you like.

      Welcome.  Glad to hear that you have gained some knowledge that has helped you. I believe the only fix for the power steer belt is an electric conversion with a Holden astra pump. If you get a chance, post pics of your car, please. 🙂

      to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?

      Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
