wrecked the car, started snowing. my traction control randomly shut off (does it all the time...found out the hard way) went around a sharp turn not even going fast. as soon as i put my foot on the gas she spun out into a bank. couldve been worse, i just wish i didnt go around town joy riding that day
whole front end is off center/fender smashed/rear quarter has a large mellow dent/sooo much rear positive camber...took it to get aligned and the furthest they could get it out was at 0 degrees.
check that overspray from the previous body work...someone sucks, i can spray bomb better than everything that was repaired from the first time the car wrecked. i guess now i can get it done properly.
wet sanded the headlights and cleared them to get them looking like glass again.
the cars temporary state until i order the new front end. new indicators
fresh emblem back on the car.
got the top working again! and moar low in the rear, took the perches out.
the traction control on these cars is a joke. i completely disabled mine. also, you can remove that front x-brace to get some more ground clearance.
sucks about the wreck. good luck bringing it back better! luckily parts for these cars are pretty easy to come by. since the rear is jacked, i'd use this opportunity to reinforce subframe mounts, new bushings and an LSD.

yeah its bullshit. if im in 1st or 2nd gear and floor it, it will shut off and i cant turn it back on. i was thinking about removing the x-brace but i like it there for now just for that extra oilpan protection. ahhh so much i need to buy for this car i just need to prioritize shit. also what are some good sites to get subframe mounts, bushings etc?
glad to see you're recovering from the accident, that m front is gonna look like tits! And how's the ride quality on the Rokkor coilovers?
before i lowered it to where it is now i'd give the ride a thumbs up. now its somewhat bouncy but bearable. not gonna complain for $350 though! i plan on upgrading to broadways once i get some proper wheels

Good man! let me know and i will set you up.
I recommend VAC motorsports for anything bushing/reinforcement related. Those guys engineer and produce everything in house with great care, check them out.
