Drunk driver's truck > Dak0n's 240

[Takumi788]

I just want to show some apprieciation for a fallen 240 tonight. A drunk driver hit one of Nico's members late april 10th while driving his newly sr'd 240sx. the drunk was driving a new ford f350 when he decided to come out of a gas station and get into the wrong lane right in front of Dak0n. Dak0n swerved but even the megan racing coilovers, wide tires, and road hugging suspension couldnt avoid the truck. Dak0n had finally saved the money to buy the his beloved s14 sr20det that he had wanted for years, all to be taken away by a careless drunk.

i just want to say that my hat is off to dak0n for building one of the nicest 240s and were all thankful that you are OK.

hey hey hey, goe easy on him. it sounds like OP was trying to make a round-a-bout love confession to Dak0ni kid, anyways, that blows big time for sure

[DMan II-40]

Dak0n swerved but even the megan racing coilovers

Found out why it happened. That to bad, he should have saved his money and got better coilovers.

Hats off? Thats usually a congratulatory action.

^^ not always so, we remove hats at funerals, any time you pass a hearse or proceeding...ive even heard of some people who remove hats to show respect to crows.

either way, removing your hat for any purpose in this instance a "death', is a show of respect and humility. though im not sure why this dude is posting about it instead of dakon?...man crush.

[Hijacker]

It's a little bromance.

[Takumi788]

hahaha. not bromance. maybe 240 romance. his car was awesome.

ive known him for a few years now. and since ive known him he was working on this 240. i just think it was cruddy, and if it happened to one you, there would be a thread about it.

and sorry taking a picture of his crushed car while one of my friends was in an ambulance doesnt seem right.

[real'S'thurteen]

cant imagine.. drunk drivers

[S13Joe]

Drunk drivers are good for these things. I'm sure he will get a nice sum of money to fund another project though.

[Sil80315]

Yeah the car is totaled and Ill be able to get some pics when the car is towed to my shop after he buys it from the insurance company.

As for the smart a** comments over the topic of his car being wrecked due to not having "top of the line" coilovers, Isn't called for. There is not much you can do when a truck pulls out in front of you head on

Just be respectful to the fact Him and his passenger weren't injured.

[TraceTheory]

i was there, saw the wreak, it was really bad.. feel bad for the guy, i heard he JUST did the sr swap like 2 days ago

[Sil80315]

nah I did the swap a few weeks ago so he had alittle time to enjoy it before it took a big hit..

[Sil80315]

ok got the car back to my shop today..I have to wait for his insurance adjuster to come by and look over the car before i can take the motor out and see if there is more damage then i can see.

Pics are up

[MastaYu]

man thats sucks

[tctomasc]

goddamnnnnnnnnnnnn. that man should.... thats just... wow... for not killing him on site. It looks like ur turbo may have seen some damage Looks like engine is off center a little?

[safin]

[ViciousCesar]

wow, that sucks.

[Sil80315]

yeah his frame is twisted so the motor is turned aswell. Im sure him or i will be posting more pics when I pull the motor out to get it ready for rebuild.

[Uberck]

damn bro that sucks i feel for ya. looks like a lot of sweat went into that ride

[Nissan240sx_s13]

So is he going through the a** holes insurance? Or is he going to do the right thing and sue him all the way to jail. If the guy can get a new f350 then he can afford to rebuild that 240.

[raven2345]

**** that is mangled

[Two Fowty]

man that is horrible.. its hard to have something just taken from you in an instant like that. i hope that drunken bastard has to pay every cent plus more.

[karmapolice991]

I was looking forward to seeing your car this summer. hopefully you will be back at it soon and build another one.Hey sil80315 how is the coupe.

[touge_951]

well at least the sportmax is ok!

[240pav]

pics or it didnt happen

hope ur satisfied

[Sil80315]

Coupes on the back burner..I had it out for a few weeks till a rod bearing went so now im rebuilding the motor. should be back on the streets by summer

[Didderson]

Good luck with the insurance man, sucks to see the mess.

Looks like the shock tower just disappeared.

[sloweighty]

well at least the sportmax is ok!

see even if they are cheap wheels they survive. I really think it depends on what you hit and how hard you hit it to break a wheel
