I know how you will feel that no other car will replace the one you had, your precious.
That was a very fine 240javascript:smilie('

If you had any engine work, you can probably get the part and put it on your new 240.(Make sure you get a s13)

PS: Never try to drift on dirt with 5 people in your 240, especially when one is pushing you to go faster. I did (about a year ago @ my high school track) and I was remembered as the guy who ran into the high school football fence. Haha
Wish I had some of thos pics

yeah i am fine. surprised that didnt have a single scratch on me.
and yeah. if i am gonna start over with another 240 its gonna be easier since i already know what to install, where to install it and how to install it. i am hoping to find the same bodykit as before, but i seriously doubt i am gonna find one.
oh well, maybe i can do it better to the next car, i might go in performance all the way and make it a sleeper =P. i might end up doing that.
hyjinx.. i thought you said you have a s14 at the begining of the thread but it was actually another member who said that (Temporary said it) lol, sorry to confuse you like that.

I drove mad about a month before my Altima was hit. I was driving a Cadillac I had owned a total of three days (cruising car, to keep me calm and reduce my ticket intake) when someone drove up beside me throwing beer cans at the side of my car. I slowed down; they passed and slammed the brakes… My front tire blew at 60mph threw me into a ditch, spun me out back across two busy lanes of traffic, over another ditch, through a fence and finally came to rest with the front end wrapped around a tree.
Then I got mad…
All of this was within a block of my house. It took about two minutes to drive that smashed caddy with four flats and a smashed front end back to my house and get into my Altima. I was doing 120mph in rush hour traffic passing left and right trying to run them down. Lucky for me, and them, I had no gas in the Altima so I only made it about 5 miles on red before I had to stop at a gas station.
I am so glad I didn’t have more gas that day. I was on my way with every intention of side slamming them and waling them into the street at gunpoint for a little public execution.
Damn I get mad just thinking about it.

Dude, I know how you feel tanshin. I would try to do the same exact thing. That is why I try to keep rocks, bricks, or anything heavy and will do a lot of damage because I got a new paint so I don't want to ram my car into theirs.
Don't worry, I don't really do that. Plus, if there is a car that annoys me, I just burn his a**javascript:smilie('

thanx to all of you.
the rims that i was suppose to put (the ones in the pictures) are 17" x 8.5 those are the stock rims from the year 2000 something Nissan Sentra SeR SpecV (or what ever its called). my friend has one and he was planning to upgrade his rims to 18"s so i would of keep his 17"s..
on the following day after the accident i had 3 people who drive 240s come up to me and askin me if i would sell anything from my 240. and they would give me a farly good price. so i went for it.
the only thing that is left of it, is shell, interior, and motor with tranny which might be sold as well.
and the celica in my garage is my brothers(former s14 driver) project car. the car is in the paintshop gettin a 2 stage perl white color.. so i will post some pictures later when i will get a chance.
tint. i got my tint done at a local shop called 'Lightning Mikes'. for 200 bucks i they tinted both front windows, both little windows in the back, the whole back window, and one line on the top of the windshield with 5% tint.
