Evaluation on my car is 2500.
Panel beater qouted 3g to repair.
So i told panel beater i wanted to keep car regardless.
Insurance offered me 2g and i get to keep my car. So thats what im going to do. Now just need to find another grand so i can get it all fixed up again.
Wicked!!!!!

I noticed ive forgoten to add any photos of my track days. Unfortunatly i could only find 1 from taupo. It was organised by the NZ zclub.(my dads in it)

I got 2 awards. Lol:
Runner up other Nissan Lap
Strength In Adversity, which i got for being on a mad mission all day long. Got to taupo did the evo brake upgrade and rear disc conversion on my sisters drive way, to prepare for the nextday of racing. I had a second set of hubs prepared for the upgrade. Unfornatly the mechanic forgot to put the spacers in for the new wheel bearings. SO half way throught the day my bearing colapsd. Took my hub off and grabed my old hubs, ran down to local work shop. Were all closed (was a sunday) except holden yard. So i asked if i could use machines. Pressed both hubs appart and swayed the bearings over. Straight back to the track and keep on racing.
Notice the dirty Hands:

Also blew my turbo gasket which ended my day of racing.

yep and if your not working every day they have (or at least had!) open track days on wednesdays where you pay your money and run with whoever else turns up (no direct racing though). Worth checking out. :-)

Wow rad effort on fixing the broken bearing.
And that bull bar is really fitting for the paddock bashing.
Is that going to be a permanent fixture?

Cant believe its been 2years since my exa has seenthe road. Finally fingures crossed after christmas im moving the car to dads workshop and will start stripping it. Going to fix the damage, then prep the body for a full respray, looking at painting it in the classic datsun bre colors. Also going to weld some new shock tower into the rear end and fit eg civic rear coil overs. Man i cant wait to get stuck back into it. Not long now.
