Ruby 1jz build
well it was raining in Arizona Saturday night. it stopped for like an hr and thats when i was driving. pavement was still a little wet but not that bad. i was on the freeway coming from a car show and some car completely cut my friend off behind me and got right up on my bumper and wouldn't get off. once we got on the freeway i completely pulled away from him but then i slowed down to meet up. he wanted to race and so i downshifted to third and right when the turbos spooled i immediately lost traction and went completely sideways. then it just got out of control and into the highway median i went.

Man that sucks, all the time, money and effort and BAMMMMM... Sorry about your loss. The rear section will be hard to replace and expensive unless you have a hook up..
yea...i found a rear qtr panel for 500 but its in japan. shipping will be outrageous and will probably take forever. hopefully i can find someone to repair my fender for less than $1000. new plans for car: repaint to gun metal grey, auto cotoure front bumper and skirts, and vertex rear bumper
buy a plasma cutter or cutting wheel. do work. try to get them cordless if you can so you can get the pieces out of a junk yard too! i have some headlights if you'd like to buy those locally tooo!

yea mine is an original 5 speed. and i know. im not ever gonna race on wet pavement again. see i have a boosted audi, but its awd and doesnt have much horsepower. so when ever i raced in that i really didnt have a problem with traction. two totally different cars. def gonna learn from this experience
