I've learned from "my" accident that even though it was "totaled", now's my chance to make it better than it ever was. The best of luck to you and hope it ends up better than the pearly

I think mostly all of the aftermarket parts were spared witch is good, and there is no way the insurance company is taking off with this car, they can have the shell if thy want but thats it.

And after laying in bed for awile tonight not able to sleep i think i have decided to rebuild. I still have a perfect undented un rusted 93 shell i can transplant into. Figure i can start from scratch make it lighter and faster with a new paint job. And at the same time after loosing one SVX to the scrap yard i will be saving another one that was on it's way there.
Hey, maybe you can get those squirel cages into that car MMM boost

i wasn't referring to the way the car looks in mods - i was referring to the damage actually. i think the rims and hood are pretty cool too

Thats the right attitude to have man. I bet you'll be more than pleased with the car that is re-born.

Besides...why the heck would we have been calling you "Subaru Jesus" if we didnt believe you'd be able to re-incarnate?

Man, that's great your girl is alive. Sue now. My buddy's mom was in a similar accident and did not sue. About 6 months later they found out the incident did permanent damage and now she can't walk, or sue. So sue.

Well boost is a must. It's been on my mind for awile, Sandy was gonna get me a C2 charger when she started working but now who knows when she will be able to

So Tom if your really interested in taking on the TT prodject i have been trying to sell all the stuff you had sold me (only for alot more ) Becouse from my calculations the stock z32 turbos are a bit small for the high compression 3.3 and the intercoolers were not ideal for the set up i had in mind. Figuring i would have to upgrade most of the stuff right away i scraped the idea.

Depending on what i can sqeeze out of these insurance guys i may order the supercharger right off the bat just for the motovation factor, but i still need enough money to get the new shell painted and get any other parts i may need for the reincarnation.

Talk to svxfiles... he is a distributor of the bloweres he is using and they are of very high quality.

Those turbos are undersized for serious power but for a decent turbo setup to make close to 350-400 crank they would have been ok I guess... Still small but still effective
