boot floors are part of crumple zone, its meant to crease, you just put it on the rack and pull it straight again. as long as your rails aren't kinked its easy panel beating with parts from a donor cut if the floor's too creased to pull straight.

it'll cost the workshop about 3k to 5k to fix, but obviously they're gonna quote you 8k to make a tidy profit, they're not a charity.

If you don't have a workshop hookup that'll look after you, your best option is find a couple of workshops that'll give you high quotes, enough to write off the car. Just Car's threshold is 70% to 75% of the value of the car. Sometimes you might have to pay em a $100 to make em give you two quotes high enough to get the payout. For them its $100 for typing up a piece of paper and getting the shop down the road to do the same.

Its a good deal Brandon. Tristans car does epic skids :P

I dont think 8k is unreasonable. It would be a fair amount of work to straighten up the car properly and things will always come up which are unexpected. Its probably a 6k job but the guy has given himself a buffer.

PS: GTR + RWD Mode?...

Yea. If it's in my hand it'll be end up like that s15 in the Tokyo Drift movie. Time to knock off work!

not a bad thought funky - ill see what the quotes end up as..

Like OMG ULEH SKIDS?

lol i'm so far from a uleh its not funny!

track skids only haha

You!

I just got a Do Luck Torque Manager with some of krudd's money.

Its fuckin epic. Better than all the other ETS's on the marke. Lets you select what speed you want it to operate at, what torque spilt you want while cornering, and what torque spilt to use while going straight. You want this in your car, along with more low.

use a translator on this site:

If you wanna be sneaky, tell em the agreed value of the car is 20k. So when they do the maths they'll think that if they quote around 10k to 12k they'll still get the job.

Nah like epic angle skids.

I have other things that need attention before that is considered. But one will be going in the car eventually :P

    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.    
    • I put Whiteline pineapples in my old 33, they came in a 6 pack of them, got rid of the axle tramp altogether, cheap, quick and easy install,  they were pretty solid units though...???high durometer???? and NVH was increased a fair bit How hard are the ones you installed?
