even know until I got to work. I was wondering why my car had trouble revving and holding idle, and felt very very slow. Got to work, searched TT.net for possible issues, and went back to the parking lot to pull the codes. Noticed when I walked around to the front to raise the hood... Front passenger side corner was smashed in. Ruined the facia, fender, destroyed the foglight/turnsignal/headlight. Also found out my other driving issue, the passenger side IC was obliterated. Crunched, endtank seperated, bolts broken off, pipe cracked, etc. The guy helping me said he was amazed it even ran at all with such a massive boost leak. It certainly was running pig rich, lol. We patched it with some airplane epoxy and RTV for a temp fix, worked well for the few months I had to drive it that way. I had liability insurance, and I never found out 100% who the other person was. I have my gut feeling, but no proof. I reported it to the police just to cover all the bases. I've accrued several tickets because of all this (headlight/inspection - because I can't inspect it with a broken headlight), and I'm still driving around with a Z sporting a black eye. Sucks bigtime, but at least its motivating me to save up to completely redo my Z into (what I consider) perfection. Good luck, hope your situation pans out better than mine.
