Message jacked it up and took some stuff off, bagged out the fender so it wouldn't rub the tire if i have to drive it and it looks like it might be savable. no real damage to anything other than the door and the area around that, suspension is ok, and the frame looks ok, ABS looks ok.

as much as i love it, i'm having mixed feelings. when i bought the Z, i was in a point in my life where i was in a new place and had a large hole in my life, the Z filled it. driving it, day, night, cross country and endless trips around the south. 45K miles in the first year i had it. only problem i had was an Alternator and leaky rear main and tranny seal.

then i started modding (intake) and blew out a clutch dragging, so it went from there, light fly, JWT clutch. ect ect. went to tons of meets and met a lot of cool ppl and ppl i though where cool. did more modding (suspension and brakes) and i loved it even more.

the Z filled that hole in me, and thus i have filled it over ten fold with friends and knowledge. before i got it i hardly ever changed my oil and did little more than check oil and auto fluid. yes my Z was my first manual. never really drove one other than the work truck when i was at 6-flags in San Antonio. so i never got it out of 3rd. and now i have rebuilt my motor, and it's still running, a few little quarks, but it is still the same the motor i built, i but it together, i dropped it in. no shady games and lies like some ppl here have done.

i don't know guys, not sure if i should push to have it fixed or to have it totaled. it's the 2nd wreck i have been it it with. both have been very bad. it's been 5 days sense the punk t boned me and im just at odds at what to do.

if i do total it out, there are 3 thing i plan on doing. of course #1 pay off all CCard bills. then save up for

A: slick top and start over with a NA, with the parts i have bought over the years.

B: S13 with either a turbo KA or SR swap. Boost!

or C: FD3/SR swap. that would be very best out right.

and no, not a TTZ or TT 3Si(boy you guys should know me better) is in the picture at all.

maybe i will just cut my losses and just save money and maybe one day get something simple and common like a gt or a f body or maybe like a house and a mail order bride from Asia. i don't know. im just blah. =\

i hate cross roads. but it's they are necessary in life.
