OP,
I was behind you and I have the footage of the accident from my dash cam (It was not a green that you rolled through). I had to rush to an appointment so I didn't stay behind, hope you are ok.
I don't know how to PM you here, you can PM me your email and I can send it to you. Hopefully the video can help your case with icbc.

^He is, and it is.

@y.oel I was telling these guys to be wary that you might be looking for some info for the other party in the accident. Because paranoid.

f*** f***...

you barely had your car bro...speechless right now, only modded coupes suffer. Sad to say but it's a totaled car. So glad you were ok and safe to go back home and see your wife and baby. These coupes are bad luck...

My wife almost cried when she saw the pics...this is just tragic. Here's hoping insurance and everything goes through and you win that case and get back on top. What's the next car? Keep us updated and stay strong!

Hmm, that's interesting. I don't know many people who have dash cams that just happen to be recording while driving, lol.

In Russia, dash cams is a requirement by some insurance companies. It is the only real way to substantiate your claim in court, since hit and runs are very common in countries like that. Soon enough it'll be implemented in the U.S. too :tisk:

My brother-in-law uses a dashcam pretty much all the time here in DFW, just got it about a year or so ago. I hope it doesn't become a requirement by law, as that's yet another hassle and headache to worry about on a daily basis (and another source of fking fines for the Popo to bother you with!) but I guess voluntary use is a good way to make sure you got what you need on video, when/if you need it!

Sorry to see the OP's coupe get smashed like that. Mine has been rear ended twice already by morons, the last one by a drunk driver in his redneck truck when my car was parked (of course the fker HAD to hit mine and not the 2 brand new Volvo(a)'s sitting next to it). I swear I hate being materialistic, but when my car got hit like that, for an instant I lost my mind....I almost cussed the first guy out when he ran into my car STOPPED at a red light but my wife talked some sense into me.

I don't know what's up with our cars getting smashed all the damn time right as we least expect it but I guess it's the numbers game. More modded Altimas + Altima forums + real life crap = sudden surge of incident reports.

According to my forums search, it's for the 3.5 only. I wouldn't go with the NISMO intake tho since it just came out and will probably have issues. K&N is the best bang for your buck, and it's warranty friendly.

Would I go with this one: http://www.autoanything.com/air-intakes ... ke-systems ? The main reason I'm investing into a intake is solely for the nice and loud sound

Nismo uses AEM. Just a re-badged AEM intake for the 3.5 that has been around since the car has been out.
