First time poster, long time lurker. I currently own a 1998 Nissan 240SX SE and at one time owned not only the 240, but a '95 Nissan 300ZX and a '89 Skyline. Sadly I had to sell my Z and just recently, this happened:















The insurance company wrote it off and I decided to just take the cash. Here it is sitting in the body shop yard ready to be taken away by the insurance co:





I could have fixed it but to me, it would have never been the same. If the accident never occurred and I sold it, the money I received Iwould've never been near the amount what the insurance company gave me. Had it since 2006 and it was sad to see her go. But am thinking of getting an R33 GT-R...

Damn, dude. Sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what it would be like to lose my R33. I cringe every time I think about getting in a crash with it. It's the car I have wanted for a long time, and I finally got one in 2008.

As for replacing it with an R33. Nice call. If you get one, and you ever need OEM parts, be sure to let me know. I can hook ya up.

Really sad pics the R32 is my fav shape and seeing one going the big scrap yard in the sky is very sad.

I had a crash in one of my skylines luckily it was only a flick with another car against a bang.But still upset me to see it damaged.

Its snowing where i live atm and after a trip out the other day i went drifting at every corner as it so icy under the snow,so for fear of damage and upsetting my insurance company the car is now sat at my house.

Def go for another Skyline the R33 is a good pick to be fair any Skyline is a good pick tho.

Why not buy the car back from insurance? Im sure you could part it out for some good money.

I could've bought it back from my insurance company but if I did, I have no way of keeping the car while I part it out since I live in a condo. I'm sure the condo board wouldn't appreciate having a stripped down car parked down in the garage, even if I owned the parking space.

Plus the money I got from the insurance company was way beyond what I could've received had I sold it in mint condition before the accident happened. Let's just say they gave me double what I might have gotten if I sold it privately.

Can't go wrong there. Let us know when you get your new R.
