well my car is pretty much totaled, i guess i might be able to salvage it maybe but i have to go and get it back from the tow company today and asses the damage done, really what i need to know and i kwno this has been covered a billion and 1 times but i dont have time to search right now im really busy and need some quick answers so i apoligize for not searching but i should be able to take my dohc out of my car and just drop it into and s13 chassis right? Also i will be postin up some pics to see if you guys think i can fix my car but i doubt it, i will be parting it out if i cant but to stay on topic, DOHC swap from 96SE into 89-993 chassis just a link will suffice i have to go to work.:dancingwt

damn dude! really sucks to hear that. imo even the grip guys should try some drifting you know, only for have control over your car, when it suddenly gets sideways. so thing like that wont happen...
the poor zenki :tears

damn dude that sucks...just a month ago my friend got in an accident and for the dumbest reason. He was sitting in the left turn lane at a red light and on the street with the green light an explorer hits a wagon, then the explorer slides and hits him, and eventually the explorer ended upside down. Sucks to hear 1 more S14 is basically gone...and i'm pretty sure the engine would fit, it's the same besides the OBDII if i'm not mistaken

yea well im a decent drifter nothin special but im good enough to where if i had drifted that corner on purpose nothin would have happend, i should have been able to control it but i got slapped, i was barefoot cuz i had sandals on and i cant drive with them on cuz they hang up on the floor board and my foot slipped off the accelerator so insead of continuing sideways and slowly comin out of drift, the tires grabed when my foot slipped off and shot me into the curb, i shoulda just ran the damn cat over im so pissed my car is completely totaled 100%, its not even worth it for me to bring it home and salvage some stuff off of it...

I only wish i was screwin around then i could blame myself, it sucks havin no one to blame when your car gets totaled. I will miss my poor zenki i worked my ass off for that car and now its gone and now im in debt 1k to my parents and 500 bucks to credit card and without a vehichle, DAMNIT, its gonna be awhile before i can get a 240 again, anyone got an extra one to donate to the cause?

Official name- 240 for Shaggy Charity

oh and if you own a cat kill the damn thing before i get to it or it will be dying a horrible horrible death, damn black cats ruin everything. Im going to go cry now cuz i just lost my pride and joy it hurts to look out my window and see that empty spot in the driveway :tears

Damn bro i feel for you. I personally had lost a 2003 Lancer evolution, I put a lot of money into it and i got cocky and went around a long bend on the highway forgetting about traffic and bam there goes a bunch of cars when im going 130 and they are going like 55. I quickly let go of gas down shift and see one possible way out and i do a cut around first car its fine then once i cut the second car a hump on the road appears and i end up in a sideways facing the wall and i kept sliding into a 180 and quickly slammed into wall.. but no.. i end up sideways with driver side facing traffic and no... i thought it was over.... nope.. i squint my eyes towards my side and all i see is this HUGE fed ex semi truck coming right at me. BAM hits my side.

Odd thing is i come out without a scratch and cat is mangled. So all the hard earned money i spent on that car dissapeared in an instant..

Trust me bro ive been there.. but take this as a sign. Be responsible first and dont just throw all your money into the car take your time with it. And take care of your fianances first Like your parents and credit card company.

You see where im going with this, but im real sorry about your loss, i 100% know how you feel bro.. Just be safe!!! and dont let those animals throw you off guard, something like that can happen with another car as well be MAJOR attentive.

Well goodluck with the next car hopefully you can swap the motor

sorry to hear about your car..... hey you had an SE right? with sunroof? i have a broken part that i cant order bc i'd have to buy the whole track. its the slider on the right side which slides down the rail and connects to the glass. its made of pot metal, small piece so shipping should be a big problem.

let me know, i can take and send a picture to you to help you find it. let me know :)
