that sucks bad, i had an experience like that in my 97, but i wasnt trying to drift. Bad alignment + bad tires + not used to miatas yet + pissed off and driving too agressively =

I was able to repair it to nearly 90% myself though. Hammered, bondoed, and painted the fender, rubbed and polished scuffed the paint, bent the headlights back into position, and dabbed some touchup paint around. came out good enough for me since i spent less that $100 on supplies

At least you didn't do this!

That was too funny, kids...

Shit, that must have been a hell of an accident to get that jack undah your tranny!

So was it a pain to take the engine out with tranny still in? I have to do a motor swap here in a few weeks and im considering that route. figure it might make lining up the mounts easier + no tranny fluid hassle (I freakin hate that shit)

guy that helped me figured it would be easier that way. so that's what we did.

I was waiting for another car to come around the corner and total theirs while they sat there gawking at the damage. I would say I was dissapointed except that the poor slob that would hit it wouldn't deserve it.

BTW, pulled the motor on mine and left the tranny in - wouldn't do it that way again. Pull em' both.

i did a good one too, azenis+rain+groundhog
looks a lot better now

worst I ever did and only 25 MPH =(

Car = $12,000
Damage Cost = $10,790 from what they could tell before they even ripped shit apart.

10k?

yeah frame damage, new door, fuck ton of new body stuff, fucked the Rad, ABS fucked, the car pretty much needed a new front clip. Also only like 14,000 GC8's were made in america so body parts are god-damn spendy. but parts + labor came out to 10kish before my insurance just said F it and totaled it then i got a miata =P

Thats awesome. My really good friend has a blue GC8 thats in the shop right now getting an STI block put in. Its gonna be a monster.

ouch

Yeah that sucks i hate it when cars suffer from bad drivers.

185-60-r14 are not drift tires why the fuck didnt they pull the fender out from the tire and get away before the cops show up?

I like the end "That's at least $400".
