I TOO JUST CRASHED MY MIATA
MY BROTHER TOO JUST CRASHED HIS AUDI A3 2.0 QUATTRO

>YESTERDAY AND I THE DAY BEFORE

IS ANYONE ELSE CRASHED

I have a turbo MSM miata with Toyo Proxes R1R tires. I have yet to find the limit of grip in a corner but I'm scared of what will happen when I do. These tires are dead silent, it's hard to know what's going on.

If there really are no tracks near you (doubtful), then you drive straight until you can save up time and money to take a couple day vacation to a track farther away, enough times until you find your limits. Never on public roads, man.

In an empty parking lot, as opposed to a public road with shit on either side, you can do the minimum of getting the car to slide and finding out the limit of grip to a good extent

Sorry for your loss, OP. I DD'd a S2000 for almost 4 years through snow, ice, tornados, and through all kinds of mountains and shit. Ended up Shingoing off a mountain, and died.

You can have problems even on a road you are accustomed to driving the same way as always. All it takes is some other car to dump oil on the road on a curve. Even if you are under the speed limit, you can slide out due to that unexpected sudden change in road conditions.

Op here, you know what's strange /o/? When I was looking around in the car after the wreck, there were two white "life savers candy" laying one on my seat, other on my floor board, and the empty wrapper on my dash, looked like half open.
I've never even had one of those ever, and my passenger didn't bring em.
Hmm.

>>15888034
man, you dun goof'd as I'm sure you're probably aware of by now

sounds like you have decent cash reserves, so that's good. Hopefully you can get back on the road soon. Never crashed any of my cars, but I've been hit a couple times and it's a gut wrenching feeling.

I've always made a point of bringing the car back stronger whenever something breaks, maybe that's the opportunity you have here.

To be honest, the frame is probably fuked beyond repair m8. At least beyond reasonable cost of repair. Part it out. Buy a high mileage, but good condition AP1. Use that as the daily for the time being. Tear down the F22, bob the builder it, and swap it in when you're ready. You'll come back stronger and with some engine building experience.

>>15888121
Yeah we'll see how it goes man. Thanks
If repairs are 10k, should I do it? I bought it for 18, worth like 25 here, so I'd lose a bit, but not as much as just ripping the engine

>>15888142
That being said I wouldn't sell it for eons if I did fix it

>>15886718

>>15884416
iktf far too well

At least you could get out and walk away without adrenaline being the only thing keeping you on your feet

>>15888142
that's gonna be more than $10k in repairs I can nearly guarantee that. Even if it is 10k and the repairs are decent, you wouldn't be able to sell it for 25. I would think you would have a hard time selling it for 15. You'll have to do some research on that to make a decision. I don't know that much about s2k's, so i'm pretty much talking out of my ass, but I would say part it out and you could recover 3-5k from it. The 2.2 is probably worth 2 grand or close to that by itself.

>>15888172
Is the tranny worth anything?

>>15888191
What the fuck are you going to do with a new windshield, put it on your race car bed? The unibody is folded, the car will never be on the road again stupid millennial

>>15888204
The only frame damage is what you see on the windshield and a little tweak on the very very front, not even to the wheels. The front I'm not worried about, it's all that windshield pillar.
So do you know, or just wanna shitpost?

>>15888191
yeah, transmission for sure would be worth decent cash if it's still good.

Extensive structural damage like that I have never had to grasp the cost for. I know that when my FA5 had just the rear quarter panel and a small amount of frame damage, the bill came to $6k.

My auto body experience is very limited, but I'm assuming that safely rebuilding the a-pillars and windscreen on a convertible (where it is especially crucial to body rigidity) is going to be much more expensive than the $6k for a rear quarter on a honda civic. Although, you may be able to reduce cost with cheap aftermarket frame parts, but probably not a good idea. Basically the entire car would need to be repainted if you wanted to do things right, so another 2-3k there for a proper paint job. So, being very generous, just the windscreen and paint you're already close to 10k.

Then you'll need a hood, then say you later discover the upper radiator mount is fucked, then the subframe isn't sitting quite right...it can quickly turn into a very expensive road to go down. Once you start, you pretty much have to see it through to the end too

>>15884277

No, I can afford it. I just don't see the point in owning an s2000 without a garage unless you don't give a fuck about its cosmetic condition.

My words were strong, but I wasn't being serious with the hostility. I know you had to have thought the same things at some point. I know I sure as hell felt like I'd be better off dead after crashing my Prelude and CRX.

I'm just saying, you should have known about s2000 and snap oversteer or w/e. Is this your first time crashing a car from losing control? If it is, it shouldn't have been the s2000. That was my point, behind all the >kys

>>15888319
he's not proud you dipshit, he's probably really upset by the whole experience. He's just trying to bait you because you're trying to make him feel even worse.

that's nothing. the worst damage is the windshield. you can find a shop that will restore the car like nothing. they'd fix it and list it for like 13-15k easy, especially with that mileage. try not to salvage it.

Last of pics unless anyone has requests.

If I have to scrap, can I sell the top for anything? It's flawless

>>15888416
Not even. Maybe at a premium shop. Try taking a look at the body parts you need first. Bumper, fenders, hood, radiator, etc. Don't look for oem parts unless you're trying to spend more. With that total you'll have a better idea of cost. Ask around body shops for estimates. The windshield isn't exactly body work, that could be looked into at windshield repair places, I'd even try asking at the ones they got at pick n pull.
And again, try not to get it salvaged. Don't report it to your insurance. For flipping a car, based on your pics, this was not bad at all. At most, with aftermarket parts and a decent shop, it really shouldn't cost you more than 3-5k. There are tons of body shops, you don't have to pay a premium to get good results

>>15888476
Panels including bumper would cost like 1500, not counting labor. Radiator, Idk. Lights, I wouldn't get OEM but I forget, something tells me it was 250? (Researched it a while ago but dropped it upon the thought of leaving her stock)

>>15888467

Yeah, there's definitely no shitty Mexican body shops in the bay area. I've even done pulls on shitty unibody cars, this one is gone. What are you going to do, put a portapro under the cowl and jack the windshield base back up? Pull the radiator support back and have all the panel mounting points pop back into place? Fixing this car would be like straightening a crushed soda can. Even if you somehow hacked on some body panels the car will never be able to be aligned correctly. It would just be a huge waste of energy, and no not even Jorges backyard body shop would take it on for $3-5K

>>15888594
I was talking about the S2000, the civic is an even more obvious lost cause. You can see where the unibody is compromised on the S2000 where the top of the driver door meets the front fender. Probably because the car had 3000lbs of weight balancing on the windshield. It will never be back on the road, not even the shadiest body shop would touch a safety issue like that with a 10 foot pole.

Couldn't find the inertia switch, but the battery was low so I charged it some.

If they can align the vehicle it's still good to go and worth trying to get back to being road worthy.

Try this, go to an auto shop with a full face helmet on, lower a car from the rack onto your head. If you can balance it there a helmet may suffice in a rollover, but probably still wouldn't because there's more force than just the resting weight of the car when you flip at speed

Was being dumb as a rock just north of redcrest, that little S leaving it

Definitely, worst case scenario you spin a main bearing or throw a rod, what do you have to lose?

>>15889272
the engine itsself seems to be in pretty good condition, only damage being to the top of the radiator, but obviously im not driving this far, just onto the back of a trailer. i'll go give her another whirl

>>15889284
Well if you visually inspected the engine from the outside and it looks pretty good then you have nothing to worry about

>>15889300
right, started right up the 2nd time. Smoke started to fade out, as expected.
New problem: coolant resovoir was pushed a bit with the frame, so the hose doesnt quite reach the radiator. Not terrible as im not running it long, but an obvious issue and more frame damage that i didnt see.

What should i swap an F22C engine in if this doesn't work out?

>>15889259
Smoke might be due to oil seeping into the pistons while it was upside down.

>>15889325
His point is that you flipped the engine. That's not good for it. They're designed to stay one orientation. What color is the smoke

Nobody is going to get through to this guy, may as well watch how it unfolds

>>15889443
without the oil pan being damaged or filter damaged or anything, how could oil interact? How would a crack develop inside the engine, when nothing hit outside the engine?

about what? I'm taking it to a shop just not for the moment

Imagine if you had a cup full of water worth a coffee filter over it. No water would Seep out, and you wouldn't really care right? Now flip that cup over. Now you have an issue.

This is the same thing except instead of water you have oil and instead of a coffee filter it's your piston rings.

i see what you mean.


this event aside, is it worth taking auto classes just for general knowledge?

>>15889501
Not OP but how would oil seeping into the cylinders be harmful aside from fouling spark plugs and possibly bending rods due to fluid in the cylinders (OP's description kind of suggests this, engine didn't crank well at first).

If you don't care about spending money and spending time going to them, sure. you learn more hands on shit on different kinds of vehicles and how shit works. They'll teach more than general knowledge though.

Hydrolock, screws up the compression of the combustion chamber. Kinda like driving your car in a flooded area but instead of water flooding the combustion chamber it's oil. Piston rings prevent oil from entering the combustion chamber, they don't really seal they act more like baffles, if the engine was flipped over, gravity pulls oil down to the valve cover, through time the oil will seep through past the pistons into the combustion chamber. The more volume of liquid than the cylinders minimum can prevent the compression stroke from completing since liquids are not compressible. It's kinda like drowning.

If there is oil up there you can usually burn it out by letting the car warm up and then holding the throttle at 30% or so of redline, the combustion will get rid of any oil that has managed to get up above the piston. Be sure to put some oil back in though to make up for oil lost
