Damn... I was hoping to keep the car. Looks like selling it is the only option now...

its not the ONLY option, but it's optimal, still, if you will be losing BIG on it, might be better to keep it after fix, but it depends on how it drives after

i hope it drives as great as it did John, your car is a nice, well taken care of 8 >.<

The damage would've been to only one side if it wasn't for the strut bar... the car just got towed away 5 minutes ago to my uncle's shop. He's going to repair it and then we're going to sell it. Guess what my next car is going to be?

Maybe? Honda only makes two different RWD cars... or maybe an 09 RX-8... I'm also looking at the M3's.

Didn't even think about that Phat. John I can vouch for the FD its WAY CLEAN. And my buddy phatty face here is a rotary master. You might wanna take a look into it if it raises your interest.

But seriously... Sorry John... that sucks but think of it this way..... You just need to get a BIGGER NoS sticker to hold it all together

LOL @ NOS sticker.

I'm really leaning towards the S2k and the FD so it'll be narrowed down to one of those.

Honestly, I have no clue as to what my uncle's doing yet. The insurance claims guy won't be down to inspect the damage for a while so we don't know what we're doing yet.

FD is more fun, ive driven both. the FD delivers! in everyway!

the s2k handles good, and looks nice, but even after a turbo kit, it still feels slow =\

keep it rotary!
