Well its game over for blue E30.
Completely ****ed i would say is best way to put it.
Turned off roe onto tonkin heading towards freo.
Fox \ cat or some **** ran out infront so i slammed brakes lcoked up went straight into the dirt smashed into telegraph pole then boucned off that and slammed side on into a 100 k an hour sign.
Was travelling about 70 \ 80 k an hour.
Think i have bruised my ribs. Will get pics tomorrow however hoping to swap **** out of it as tow truck driver said i can come by and pinch **** off it.
Need LSD \ Steeringwheel \ Rims \ Springs

Thanks for comments guys :)
Just a waste to see 2 \ 3 years worth of work dissapear in the space of 10 seconds.
The car was on its 3rd engine and the plans to use it as a proper track car and adding a supercharger and some cams are now well and truly over.
I need the red one out ASAP now so hopefully can get it out that much quicker due to urgency :(

Glad to hear your ok. Cars can be replaced, lives can't.
Damn Kieran, looks like a fairly substantial whack, top effort on knocking the pole over completely though. Glad to hear you are alright dude, at least you've got another car you can focus your attention on whilst this one's injured.

Hitting the dog/fox would have done much less damage?

Yea i know but it was a split second reaction that i am dreading.
The plan now is i am going ahead with the M20 turbo engine for a while however going to rip M50 out of wreck build it up with cams \ port and polish \ pistons \ crank then i will rip out the M20 turbo motor and dump M50 into red one and maybe supercharge.
I will receive bout 6 g out of this smash so should cover cams \ pistons.
I am also gonna take strut brace \ LSD \ suspension \ Rims \ Short Shifter \ Gearbox \ engine + cai + extractors \ brake boosters \ Seats \ Stereo \ Steering wheel \ Dash ( white dash looks tacky as hell in red one ) \
I now have to pull finger out to get this ready for motorvation.
I am hoping to at least have turbo setup on M20 if not its gonna be N.A and be slow as **** :(

Sorry to see that mate, but don't worry I feel for ya! Travelling at 80k's in the wet I did manage to hit a fox, it unsettled the car, aquaplaned, up kerb, give way sign, down kerb, give way sign again, ended up sideways in the dirt. I had my car for about 3 weeks & then it was off road for about 6 weeks (maybe more, can't remember), which was hell considering I imported it.
The "only" damage to my car was a popped tyre, bent rim (that was repairable), left headlight & bonnet from give way sign #1, right headlight, bonnet & a bit of fender from give way sign #2. Basically the very front of my car luckily....
About a k back down the road I seen a d car pull over a drunk driver, as I was inspecting the damage I heard a car pull up, and for the first time in my life I thought "**** I hope that's cops". It was, and they thought I was speeding because I had moved the car to straighten it a bit up the road, that's where they thought I came to a stop. The were no "direct" witnesses to the crash, but there were 4 or 5 cars not too far behind me who all looked but none bothered to pull over to see if I was ok because it was raining. THE ****ING ****S.
But yes things will go on, just be glad you are ok! :)
