So i was involved in a head-on accident on my way to work 4 weeks ago and the insurance company has been kind enough to let me keep the car and dispose of it myself. It is a financial write-off. Im no panel beater so i couldnt tell you for sure if the chassis is bent but im going to hazard a guess and say that it is. As you can see in the photos, the front end is pretty much f**ked. The engine block might be ok but im fairly certain most of the other engine components are going to be cactus. Gearbox might be ok or may be suited for a cheap rebuild if you can do it yourself, not real sure. Best bet is to come have a look. So before the accident the car used to be a:

'95 R33 GTSt S1.5

130,000 kms

Black

Manual

Nistune ECU

5-Zigen turbo back 3in exhaust

FMIC

Pod air filter

Splitfire Coils

Tomei 600hp GTR Fuel pump

Turbosmart Boost controller

Nismo Short Shifter

Excedy Heavy Duty Clutch

Apexi Boost Gauge

Was pumping out a healthy 217rwkw on 12psi with the standard turbo.

I dont have any tools to pull the car apart, nor do i have any room to store parts so im hoping to get rid of the whole thing in one go. Its sitting on the street with no plates so its only a matter of time before i start receiving complaints from the neighbours.

$1.5k in Sydney's Northern Beaches.

Sorry mate , looks bad.I need engine harness.Is there anyway you unplug and sell it ?

Im going to try and sell the whole thing as is first, if not gone in a week or so ill pull the more expensive parts off and sell them separately. Shall shoot you a PM if that happens.

For those that have asked, no the car will not start, and yes it can be re-registered if you wanted to fix it up.

    • Yeap, not as doorty as ITB's, but alot more doorty than before, induction sound great when I'm up it 🤗
    • Any difference in induction noise?
    • If I got a dollar for every flipped commuter missile I've driven past I'd have two dollars   Some people get into wild adventures on the road and I doubt it's gender or ethnicity specific. I'm just glad I don't usually drive during peak times.
    • Just got the car back and gave it a good run back home Power wise, whilst it only made a extra 5 killerwasps up top at 7200 rpm, it made more power everywhere from 2500 rpm and kept pulling much harder all the way, to the point of me relearning when to shift so I don't hit the 7200 limiter, with the old intake it seemed to take alot more time to rev out, and, throttle response is also much improved  As I didn't want to remove the bumper every time I serviced the air filter (basically every aftermarket and fabricated CAI has the filter behind the bumper) it currently has a hektic exposed pod in the engine bay sucking in hot air, this will be rectified shortly after some some of my CAD (cardboard assisted design) for a alloy heat shield feed by the OEM intake tube behind the bumper, this will cop some wrinkle black paint, as well as the intake pipe for that totally OEM look... The only fly in the ointment was that the OEM "strut" brace doesn't fit over the rear runner of the new intake with the 2.5 engine is in the engine bay, as the 2.5 raises the engine up by 20mm, it's not a war stopper, and I didn't notice any difference without it in some twisties, but....... MX5 Mania is bringing in some GWR "fancy pants" braces that apparently do fit, if it bolts up I'll grab it, it is also stiffer than the OEM one, which is a bonus All in all I'm happy with the outcome      Fancy pants "strut" brace that gives the required clearance      This is where the clearance issue was, the GWR extends out past this
