Unhappy R34 GTT R.I.P

here is some pics of my car that was to be modified although due to unforseen circumstances the car has now been written off.
fortunately though we walked away from it with only nettle stings and severe wip lash.





with gtr alloys on and gtr spoiler --->




the aftermath of the crash:-







this happened going round an s bend corner and the back spun out of control and this was under 60mph. the car hit a dry stone dyke wall and destroyed 50 yards of wall ending on its roof. There was 2 passengers and myself in the car. We had to crawl out the back window as that was the only way out into a ditch full of nettles. This just happened on sunday past at 3am total gutted. Let this be a lesson to you all though and be aware of the road conditions cause you just never no 1 day you got your pride and joy and the next its gone!
the police said the road conditions were slippy to and arent pressing charges i dont think any way. The police said to me that they seen me at the traffic lights an hour before the accident and said to his colleage 'thats a nice car'. not sure if he was trying to rub salt in the wounds but i just said ill sell it to you if you want.as the car lay in the ditch on its roof

Bad news mate! was awiting your update with your project! My best mate wrote his teg off last night too, bad news, he is gutted! Like everyone says though at least you and your passengers are ok! Try and take any bits off the car before the insurance company get to it though! At least then you can maybe make some cash back.

all i can say about the project is that its possible but a few mods do need to be done a good work shop should be able to do the mods.
How is your project coming along now cardiff r33?
