I'm not sure how the value works, but you can buy back written off cars for cheap most of the time....

Timpo 12-08-2003 11:18 PM

notice that the car has different hood.

why does he have to buy it? because that's his car, so that doesn't make any sence...

if he crashes his car, that's still his, he doesn't have to buy it, because the car belongs to him...unless he sold it to ICBC or whoever...

Ray:Looks like a hard hit but the damage doesn't seem that extensive to the car.

Timpo: That red FC looks good.Better headlight kit too.

Timpo 12-09-2003 08:39 AM

Dude, your car isn't fucked. Get it back from Progressive ASAP or you'll get reamed for price, probably. You can find a trailing pack from a wrecker or a broken 7 in town for cheap I'm sure, and they take about two seconds to swap. Your car still running? From what I understand you can run just fine without a trailing pack.

I think when I met you my LEADING pack was dead. =)

raymond_87 12-09-2003 04:08 PM

damn bcty thats a nice ass 7 :eek2:

t0mmy 12-09-2003 06:24 PM

Dear god I want that turbo...

Too late.. got raped.. wasn't the pack, it was the wiring to the trailing pack.. was totally fried.
Yeah, the car was still running... shitty but running.
i think the fuel-cut switch i put in it helped with the no more flooding either.

it would run, but the second it got to 6k rpm, it would just shut down. and would NOT start for about an hour at a time.
wish i knew how to fix what went wrong myself.. but i had no idea it even had anything to do with the ignition.. i thought the ECU was toast.
