Greetings, Names Pat. New to site not to the scene.

Little bit about me.

Lived in Okinawa, Japan for a few years. Owned a 1996 R33 then Built an AE86,
Then Purchased a 1992 180SX for $500 pulled the Engine/Drive train and anything i could, broke the engine down to the crankshaft and mailed it home piece by piece through the post office. Which i then built from the crank up and dropped into a 1991 S13 now making 363Whp / 335ft tq on stock intake manifold and Cam's.

Don't lie....it sucks in Japan! LOL

J/K

Its nice to have access to "cheap" JDM parts and not have to wait over a month to get.

I recommend to anyone to at least come visit Japan if they are into Japanese cars. Check out and buy parts for their cars from the stores and online. Visit some of the aftermarket manufacturers or hit up the Tokyo Auto Salon. (which I have yet to do and this is my 4th year of living in Japan)

Thanks guys for the comments
But just my luck this **** happens

Just pulled out of my space and began accelerating, I look down to turn down my radio when my wife screams I look up and see a white Buick that pulled right out in front of me driving across the parking spaces, I hit the brakes and yank the ebrake with no luck due to the wet parking lot, i hydroplaned right into the drive side door.

Unfoutuantly cant say it was his fault due to it being on private property. So gotta see how it plays out with the insurance company.

I was planning on converting it to a Kouki anyway but i wasnt planing on doing it this soon, so the RB is gonna be put on hold.....Sigh......

Upper Core support is bent at the head light mounting points.
Attachment 9759

Other bent areas are the Bumper renforcement mounting points
Right Side
Attachment 9760
Attachment 9761

Left Side
Attachment 9762
Attachment 9763

Middle and lower Core support are untouched

Frame is not that bad, I'll be pissed if a Frame shop cant fix it
I could fix this with a 5lb sledge, my jeep W/tow strap, and a Spreader C-Clamp


All this needed to be replaced when converting to Kouki but
Still ****ing Pisses me off.

So it looks like the RB is gonna be put on hold until this get repaired.
I dont wanna total the car so
Hopefully I can get it repaired without paying a dime

bummer man. i have the worst luck as well, but it was with red cars. i wanted a white infiniti q45, but i might have to change my color choice cuz my girlie just crashed her white dodge caliber too, like 3 days ago.

Nickmerrone 10-17-2009 08:20 PM
