this is what happens when an rx7 and an rx8 collide
 

so i got into a little fender bender last night after pickin up a friend from work. noone was hurt except the cars. just always make sure you check your blind spots when you pull away from a curb. this is what happened to my car from cutting off my friend in his 93 rx7.

Ouch that sucks, hope u get it fixed soon!

no this is how it looks https://www.rx8club.com/lounge-4/rx-7-8-import-tuner-mag-151323/ thats crazy though out of all the cars out there it was an rx-7

Can't see the pics...this was after flips I take it..

Dude, that sucks! I'd like to see pics of the FD, though.

That sucks man! I know what it feels like to have a damaged car.. You always wonder why the hell you have insurance until something like that happens.

Totally Sucks Brian! Glad y'all are ok.

no its pretty normal seein as most of my friend drive rx's. i just happened to be pulling away from the curb as one of my friendds was pulling up to park a couple car lengths in front of me and BAM!!!! his front passenger side was into my door.

and yes this was around midnight last night.

it hurts to see that....hopefully they can fix her up ASAP

they should be able to the body shop already knows shes coming in on monday so hopefully ill have her back by the following monday

whoa damn brain. im glad ur ok.. but shit dude the car.. i hope you get it fixed soon =p

dam sorry to see ... any pics of the 7?

so when i went to get pics of the seven on friday i got there right after the tow truck had left from picking up the car so sorry guys i couldnt get pics of it. i can tell you the the front passenger fender was messed up, the bumper was pushed over towards the drivers side, the headlight was stuck up and pushed over a bit, the sidemarker was broken out, and the tie rod end was bent so badly to where when the wheels were straight it looked kinda like this ! \ . for being such a slow speed wreck it caused a ton of damage to his car

Updates on this Brian? How's it coming? And wtf, are you signed on at 545 a.m. too? For real? Or just passed out without signing off...

no im signed on all right and the updates so far are the car is still at the body shop getting fixed is all i know.

i havent heard from the body shop yet and the car has been there since monday.

but on a good note i got a freaking sweet rental!!!!!!! lmao! its a blue convertible pt loser.

i finally got to see the car today when i went to drop off some parts they needed to get painted along with the car, so far all the dents are knocked out and under bondo except for the back door. the back door is lacking bondo and final sanding and they said i should have the car back by the end of the week. i cant wait to get my car back.

good to hear!

and heres the finished product you would never know there was 4k worth of damage done to my car by looking at it now

now i just need to get my new rx8club sticker for my fender and wait until they get a few parts of the appearance package i dropped off with them painted should be back to 110% by next weekend

So whatever happened to the FD? Did the impact cause it's turbos to fail, an apex seal to break, a coolant seal leak, or did it overheat? Sitting in traffic will cause those all to fail so I would think a minor impact would cause it to go Hindenburg!

^^^ ??? .....

no just broke his steering rack, bent his tie rod end, rashed a wheel, bent the fender, broke his headlight, bent his front bumper, and broke his side marker light. he just got his car back today and it looks flawless they repainted the entire front end and blended the paint all the way back to the rear quarter panels so it looks like a brand new 7.

oh yeah and it bent his intercooler piping but im not sure how

what body shop did you go to? I have a dent in my driver side fender for a year now and want to get it fixed. Any suggestions?

auto tech services on lonestar rd here in mansfield they do amazing work

It was sarcasm based on the fact that while awesome, the FD was one of the most unreliable cars ever built.

aint that the truth i know more people with fds that dont run than i do with turboII's that have blown motors or no motors lol

I've owned several 1st and 2nd gens and I've never had a serious issue. I'm not counting the things that I messed up!

ive only got my 8 and my 2nd gen but im putting a 12a in it cuz i dont want to have to fix all the wiring from where rats ate it so im gonna get the lights to work and wire up the ignition and starter on my fc and then some lights and a few electric fans.

oh yeah i forgot to mention the 12a im puttin in it is full bridge ported and running a holley 750

Where are the pics of the 7

i never got any i couldnt get around the car to get some after it happened
