has YOUR car ever did a 540 on the freeway...... IN THE RAIN?!?!(long story)
 

it is now 5:30 in the morning and man, my car got ****ed-up!!
i was coming back from the metreon in san francisco at around 2 in the morning. everything was going coo(although every couple of huge water puddles on the freeway, i could feel my car loosing traction a little) but other than that it was fine...... until i hit the bay bridge. right when i hit the treasue island tunnel, there is this huge water puddle(bigger than 1car and a half's lenght) right on the left lane, which is the lane i was in. my car went over the puddle and i completely lost traction on either all 4 wheels or the 2 rear ones. my car spun around like crazy(i counted about 1 1/2 or maybe 2 full turn-arounds) and i ended up on the right lane, facing traffic, with my driver's side rear on the little sidewalk they have in the tunnel! i knew it was all bad cuz the car wouldnt turn(it was worse than not having power steering) i dont even remember how but i got the car to turn around in the right direction w/o no one hitting me! i took the off ramp to check my car and my driver's side wheel and control arm was totaly ****ed, looks like the drivers side rim is pushed foward and inside.... i dont know, its hard to explain... i didnt get a good look at it, i'm just glad to be home and alive. i'm gonna take a better look at the car in the morning and call the insurance company too. but i know the cf hood wasnt damaged. the bumper was... probably a lot of other stuff....
well, i guess i'm gonna be sellin a couple of stuff cuz i dont know if i might even keep the car or whatever.
here is what i have(some of these stuff are not actually on my car), pleez, if ur gonna make an offer please make a reasonable becuz a lot of this stuff was hard to find/make!!:

Spoon Sports 4-2-1 exhaust manifold for DOHC engine custom to fit D17

Sorry to hear it.

i think he was laughing at the fact that he tripled posted :D...anyway, really sorry to hear that. maybe i'll reconsider moving up to the bay (?). well, that sucks. hope you can get it all fixed up so you don't have to sell all your stuff.

Damn Will that sucks dude. i hate driving in the rain! Anyways hope everything works out ok

Hit me up if youre going to part out your car, i might be interested in the spark plugs

Sorry to hear about your car, Will. BTW... this is Zell.

I hope you don't end up getting rid of your car. That would suck. If you are though, I'd be interested in your manifold if I had the money.

Goddamn recession. Anyways, hope everything works out for ya.

Man that sucks just glad your ok man.. Cars can be replaced...

damn will, good to know your aight though..geez..my tires are getting bald and its raining this week...maybe i shouldnt drive my car till i get sum new tires...damn..crucial...if u partin your car, how much u want for the manifold and the spark plugs and the vtec controller?

my vic has never done any of that 540 stuff, she dont like none of that xgames sh!t. sorry to hear though.

I know you didnt list that altezza grill, but if its not f***** up, and you are will to sell it, I am interested.

at least you are fine... hopefully everything goes well with insurance...


btw... how much for the spoon plugs?

THat's good to hear that you're all right Will. That really sucks what happens. Let's just be glad that nothing bad happened to YOU. What Zell said, I also hope that you won't be ending up getting rid of the car. You car is lookin' good too. Hopefully insurance will cover it. Hey, it's not your fault. Hell, my tires are bald to, sometymes we need to take it slow and even though by driving slow we can styll get into an accident but hey, at least it reduces the chance of getting into an accident ryte? Just take care and be wise in the things you do. Take it easy !

i havtn posted in a couple of days becuz of this whole car thing.... i've been tryin to contact the insurance company and all to get it settled and see how much damage was really done.... the car is pretty much stock now, i've traded/sold most of the parts(except for hood and grill) and the only thing i have left for sale is the Spoon Iridium Spark Plugs. I'm sorry, i know a couple of u guys wanted to buy the spoon sports exhaust manifold but i already sold it to a friend of mine. all my aem stuff is gone too except for the intake and i dont know if i'll be selling that.
so if your interested in the spark plugs then let me know.
