Hm thought I replied earlier .. Guess not. Picked this one up cheap, put the motor back in it since it had a Nissan motor in there.... Just needs some TLC!

Nice! Has it been raining there all weekend?

monkey.magicx · 04-01-2012, 08:04 PM

It rained Saturday for the majority of the day. It got sunny right as the track day ended.

And while I think IH8 and I got started on the wrong foot, I will say his car is very classy.

i'd swap you if we were close, i'm not a fan of polished lips but can't bring myself to cover them up and ruin the OG finish.

thanks mate!

:'(

What happened minto?

Even though it looks bad, all the damage is minimum except the wheel... New door and fender, and you're set!

morr · 04-02-2012, 06:36 AM

Oh no!!

That looks weird how the wheel just chunked off like that.

minto · 04-02-2012, 06:39 AM

Posted up in my build up !

Im missing one piece of the wheel, the bit i did get bend so far before it snapped off.. gutted tbh. Im waiting on prices now for a replacment 15x8 ET0 from Austrailia and also quotes on 15x9's and i'll put the rear 8.5's on the front.

Christopher · 04-02-2012, 08:24 AM

that thing broke like a knockoff.....could the whole knockoff debate be....utterly pointless?

Who knows.. tbh I was almost stationary.. I was hit by a triumph bike going around 55/60mph. The wheel took a direct impact and the entire car was sent flying down the road. A pretty long distance going by my tyre marks when I locked the brakes up as soon as he hit me.. I would doubt ANY wheel could take that kind of impact and remain intack..

The way we seen it was.. if it WAS a knockoff.. the wheel would have probably shattered alot worse and probably taken his leg off.. However thats only speculating.
I dont know anything about bikes but this is kinda what it looked like..

It took alot of people to lift this off the ground. Thats alot of weight to be aiming for a wheel...

Fresh NB · 04-02-2012, 10:40 AM

^^^so you were hit by a guy on a motorcycle going 60/70mph? Sheesh.....did the guy on the bike walk away?

minto · 04-02-2012, 10:48 AM

*EDIT - Probably more likely 55-60 thinking about it, I wouldnt think he would of got to 70.. but he was going for it.

Hmm he hopped. He's still in hospital as far as I know. Broken bones in his leg and dislocated thumb, and road rash? the police said. However as per my build up he admitted fault. Scared the crap outa me and my mate. He like flew for a little bit then landed and just kept rolling down the hill we were on.

There was an NC MX5 coming up the hill and she stopped just before and was like "Did you call an Ambulance?" and im like, "NOOO CALL ONE!!!" and the dude wasnt moving.. i thought he was feking dead for a few minutes O__O i was in so much shock I had no idea wtf to do..... :/

minto · 04-02-2012, 11:09 AM

1 Hour before the crash, went to see my girlfriend at her work.

few hours after.. when i got it back to my friends house after a police escort.

Adrian · 04-02-2012, 12:10 PM
