Fook. Sorry to see that, man. But glad you've got a new black one!

Thanks

Long story short, swerved to avoid somebody who cut me off on highway, avoided collision with anyone but careened off the concrete barrier.

Body damage looked workable, but I managed to rip the front axle apart and twist the frame in the rear, so... TOTALED.

Baseline dynos and mods to come... first thing I need to do is tint and oil change

I'll have a few left over items from the old zed for sale soon too

Welcome to the dark side.

Yikes. Poor Z.

Waiz · 10-10-2012, 06:55 PM

Wowzers, glad to see it worked out in the end!

RonRizz · 10-10-2012, 06:55 PM

Ouch

Says the guy that jumped ship.

Glad you're alright, Jordo.

Nice new Z.

Jordo! · 10-10-2012, 08:53 PM

Thanks, gents

Will be doing a few things a bit differently.

Probably going with PPE headers instead of TP's and spending money (eventually) on stickier tires rather than different wheels.

That new intake project I had mentioned in other threads is still on, but moving slowly, so eventually that.

Also planning on koni's + swifts and a few other suspension mods that I have been accumulating... I'll share details as things get done for those who may be interested.

First thing I need to do, other than tune the shift speed and throttle response is get a baseline -- back to stock for the moment.

Glad it worked out, and glad you're okay!

864Zbeast · 10-10-2012, 10:01 PM

Ouch. Glad it worked out, congrats!

Mr&Mrs · 10-10-2012, 10:26 PM

Dang sorry! At least you got another one!

Zaggeron · 10-10-2012, 10:32 PM

Glad you're OK. Congrats on the replacement though
