How bad is the damage? Just the bumper or potential chassis?

The lower back panel and floor panel have been pushed in, as well as damage to the LHS rear quarter :(

A bit difficult to see but in the pic, you can just make out the offset of the boot to the body.

Since the other douchebag had no insurance and I have to go through my own cover, I'm now required to obtain quotes from different panel beaters, as oppose to just taking it to my preferred place.

The guy was tailgating me as I approached a round-about. I could tell he was too close but it was either I kept driving and get t-boned from another car going around or stop in the hope he'd stop too :/

If people have no insurance, then why do they drive so erratically? So stupid :rant:

Yesterday I got rammed from behind by a guy in a Lancer, then we exchanged numbers :turned:

This happened to me today :( A p-plater girl hit the back of my car as I was stationary at the traffic lights. Her car had basically no damage, but mine had scratches on the bumper and the back of the car is moved in. Since my car was in mint condition I'll be making sure the repair is 100%, will also get the panel beaters to include a wheel alignment in there as it feels slightly off now. Luckily she has insurance (apparently) so I'm hoping to get it taken care of soon.

Yep, also had the floor panel pushed back, it wasn't snapped, but it was hard to get out and I can't get it back in until the back of the car is fixed. Luckily nothing else seemed damaged.

Feeling your pain, dude.

The insurance company has been quite helpful, so fingers crossed it's a smooth process in getting your beast repaired.

Since her insurance will be paying for the fix, I think you can take it to your preferred repairer :D and it'll be all sorted.

damn :(

P for pathetic :P

is there a wheel well in the boot? so boot itself not caved in or anything?

Yep, I asked her how she think it happened, didn't really get a response haha

I don't think the boot is caved in, it looks to be just the metal where the "Skyline" badge is (I think bumper support?) that is caved in. There is a local repairer just around the corner that looks decent, so might go there tomorrow. I wanted to get a wheel alignment soon anyway, so I guess I'll get them to include that.

farkin mohsen sending me shit!

Hey plattsy, now I know how I will prank all my friends who leave their phones lying about without pin codes. Random numbers asking for cock pics.

damn :(

Hey man, don't be ragging on the P.

    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.  
    • It is an absolute lottery. They can and have died at stock boost with low usage at all. The turbos are now anywhere up to 36 years old!
