Hey guys...

I was initially writing this as a PM to a few guys, but figure I may as well make a post out of it.

Last night, my Z was totaled. I was in Manayunk (district of Philadelphia), and came up around a bend on the main street. There was a car just parked/stopped in the middle of the road - because of the turn I could not see it until I was right upon the vehicle. Since there was an oncoming car in the opposite direction, I attempted to avoid the parked vehicle by braking and swerving to the right. However, I nicked that car (took out my front left corner entirely) and went head first into a parked Volvo. Needless to say, we can all imagine what would happen when Z meets Volvo. The front end of my car accordioned, POP filter was laying smashed up on the ground...just one giant mess.

Luckily, no one was injured in the accident. For SOME reason, I pulled a "Robo" and had my window open (even in the dead of winter!). Because I was trying to avoid the incident, I was "swerving" and the angle of impact would have caused my head to smash into the DS window...so I'm considering myself quite lucky right now.

However, I'm thinking that I am going to have to forfeit my car to the tow company that picked it up...don't really have anywhere to store it, but would love to pull off a lot of the items on board. They told me that if I am leaving the car to them, I can go and pick up my personal items and stereo - which will include my boost controller, turbo timer, t-top shades, etc (obviously)...but it looks like my tails, exhaust, etc may be gone forever. Unless it's not a gated lot...then I'll be sure to make a return trip this evening

Anyway, I want to thank you guys for all of the support and help you've provided over the last few years. I am extremely appreciative of all of the advice and wisdom that has been transferred over this time, and will surely miss the comradery within the Z community. I've been missing from the meets/chats over the last few months, but this was due to a demanding transition into my new job...it really rendered me unable to afford the time to enjoy my hobbies and passions. The irony is that I have been settling in and finding a balance recently, and now I am left unable to enjoy one of the truly stimulating activities I've experienced - working on and learning about my 300zx.

So that's all for now. I am sure my roommate and I will be heading over to pull off as many parts from the car as possible today - I will try and remember to bring my camera to show you the "carnage" photos.

Thank you to everyone here for the last few years. A special thanks to Barry, Jon Jewell, Jared, Brian M, Jeff, and all of the NJ guys (Diego, Ed, etc) for your advice, assistance, and friendship. I hope to continue to pester you at local meets and cruises, and hopefully one day will return with another Z.

Thanks guys.
Ahhhh shhhhitttt

Cade, sorry to hear, I was actually hoping to see you again after all this time. Hopefully you get back on your feet soon, let me know if you need anything. Sucks about the car, just make the next one better.

Nah... Maybe :P

If any of you 240 guys want Z32 parts it's best to go after NA parts. A lot of the drive line is similar (R200 Diff, 29 Spline Axles, 29 spline five lug hubs) and it's all substantially cheaper.

240's With TT parts are instantly baller because of some of the work involved

If I can find some place to store the vehicle and part it out, you can def get your hands on these.

Haven't heard back or found any usable storage area though...the guy who owns the tow company that picked up my car wants to buy the whole thing. He'll probably try to low ball me, but if I can't find a place to take the car, it's my only option.

Those turns are exactly where i'm talking about. One night we saw some kid totally his clean s14 out there after hitting a polem, ever since then I dont think anybodys gone back
