definately :driving
just found out what happended to my old scooby...
(http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o272/princeoftokyo/SCOOBYCRASHED.jpg)
GUTTED
how the **** did that happen ?
ouchh
the driver alright ?
OMG! It\'s horrible when you find out about your old car..... That was a nice ride mate, a shame indeed, obv the driver didn\'t know how to handle it i\'m guessing??? Do you know if the passengers were ok ?
been trying to call the guy up but no answer...apparently he lost the back end and rolled into a ditch... hope he was ok...gutted
4 wheel drives give people wayyy to much confidence
they think the cant loose the back end and it stick to the road no matter what
just got in touch with the guy who bought it off me...hes ok, sold it to someone else a few weeks later who rolled it into a ditch on his way home...gutted
type-r scooby\'s are a completely different machine to 4 door scoobs due to the DCCD (driver controlled centre diff) which means power split is 64:36 back:front when left fully open for road use, and as the are quite high off the ground and have such a short wheel base they tend to skip around bends and kick out the back end. good for those who know exactly what there doing...not so good for unexperienced drivers...
man what awas of a awsome car, i had a sti wrx 4 door seriously modded n it was a handfull, never lost it tho..
the guy who rolled it is a friend of a friend. He had ALOT of nice cars inc several skylines and an rx so not due to inexperience and apparently he wasnt doing anything silly at all!
Had no insurance and was driving it home and went into the ditch. ill get some more pics if i can.
he wasnt hurt at all and bought another car shortly after but i dont think he got a penny on this.
lives in reading i believe.
it came up in conversation a while ago before it happend as whoever owned it before took it to the london tunnel run and was following all the rx7\'s and when i was showing a friend some pics of the run he spotted it and said my mate just bought and demolished that car! lol i would be gutted if it was my old one out of sentimental value i suppose.
The cars he had before were top end motors too so not your average rubbish just got caught out i suppose, think it was diesel or something on the road.
i was the one who took it to the jap girls tunnel run, looked after that car like no other and did alot of work on it to get to its final condition, but like anything fancied a change so after around a years worth of fun and work fancied a change...does hurt seeng the car trashed but **** happens...as long as the guy driving it is ok, cars come and go
yep as far as i know he wasnt scratched.
the car looked phenominal at the tunnel run.

No way thats my old subaru i sold it to a guy from london, did you buy it off him or are you him, im from chester. I cant believe it has been wrote off do you know how much money was spent on that thing, gutted
Had different rims on though and didnt have the carbon bonnet when i owned it, was a good fun car that was.

LOL, i bought it from you in chester (Audi deal)...LOOK WAHT SOMEONE DID!!!!!!!!!
I got the put on the carbon bonnet and had some upping boost and remapping done by TDi\'s...sold it with the OZ\'s though, dunno why someone would take them off...
how you doing any ways m8?
what you driving now m8? last time you had the s2k didnt ya?
Quote from: prince_of_tokyowhat you driving now m8? last time you had the s2k didnt ya?
Hiya mate glad it was you i thought you had sold it on, was a good car the subaru i must admit i was gutted when it went. I cant believe it has been wrote off its such a waste of a well sorted car. I sold the s2000 and bought a supra TT 6 speed but i have just sold that 2. I am after a skyline now exactly like the one you had that was gorgeous, how much did you sell it for what did you think of it? the skyline i mean.
nice rex too mate
LIke what you did with the plate too mate, never thought of doing that
Ive still got that skyline mate... was really waiting till after christmas to sell it... its a 1996 R33 GTR V-SPEC...have to sell it on as in my area its just too hot...very difficult to keep any kind of skyline about here as the youngsters hold too much of an interest in it if you know what i mean...
its pretty much standard exept from 18" BBS alloys, Apexi power FC mapped to uk fuel, Greddy boost controller and an os-giken clutch...dont think its running too much...id estimate anywhere from 330-350 which in skyline terms is a baby...50,000miles on the clock
as with how it feels...a well sorted everyday car...not as manic and rapid as the scooby but good top end
looking around 10k...let us know if you interested m8
Just some recent pics for ya m8...

Hiya mate yeah i would be very very interested but i cant buy again till some time after chrismas because i have got to wait for my new mortgage to go through first before i can get a loan again. That really is just what i am after too.
