Is this gonna be worth the bill to get repaired? I planned on an sr20det swap and a rhd conversion, but another car doing a u turn in the middle of the road decided otherwise...

Hey, My 98 kouki had the same thing. go to: http://www.cardomain.com/id/yanners or search "yanners" there. It took me, myself ,and I four days to conver the fire walls and do the motor swap. The body shop cost $4K but that was to completly fix the body damage and repaint. Then it was just wiring the rear and customize... It is possible to do youself, dispite what some say. Although that seems extremely damaged. It's up to you:cool:

the amount of money to fix it can buy you 2-3 running s13's in better condition before you crashed.


part out any of it's goodies and junk it or just junk it.

stuffs people would possibly want
dual cam instrument cluster
hicas diff
5speed
dual cam harness or complete motorset
hatch if mint
possibly glass
or any aftermarket stuff you put on it

but your s13 is a loss unless it has sentimental value to spend 4000+ dollars to fix

Need detailed pictures of the core support and also driver's side fender (frame). Depending on what needs to be done, we might have to clip your front end.

thats what i was thinking, support is toast and the driver fender frame is really bent inward and crushed a good amount. how much would clipping it be? maybe a rhd clip can be done at the same time...
