stealth Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Gutted for ya , at the end of the day you are ok (minus the jarring of shoulder and neck) though and that is the main point! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Sorry to hear this bud, hope the damage isn't too bad. I know where you're coming from regarding the RH's though, if I damaged mine beyond repair I'd be gutted, they are priceless to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 looks like I may have to pay the doc a visit as my back/shoulder is hurting quite a bit, must've jarred it somehow as I hit the curb.... The doc won't do much for that. At best you might get some Paracetamol/Codeine combo tablet that you can get over the counter anyway. You're not thinking of claiming whiplash off your own insurance are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razza Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 no, I'm not into claiming for something that's not genuine, just wanted an opinion from the quack as I need to know whether to lay off the training. I'm a stubborn b*stard sometimes so need someone else to tell me to lay off it.... Just had a phone chat with the doc, take some tablets and see how it goes.... Out with the port then, well can't drive to the meet tonight anyway:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerous brain Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I constantly read about the adverse weather conditions making supra driving a hazard and the resultant threads of woe like this one when it does go all wrong. Why oh why do people that use their cars as daily runners not put winter wheels with narrower winter tyres on? Its compulsory in the rest of winter ridden europe..... You'd see alot less supra ouches if daily users stuck 205's all round on the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n boost Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Just clocked this thread now and can not believe what i am reading. After all the hassle u been through and finally back on the road this really sucks. At least your alright and cars can be fixed but it is bad news, really feel for you mate. I went through a similiar sito with one of my previous cars where i ended up buying 6 different engines as almost everyone i got from breakers was knackered, and when i finally got a good engine and had spent way more then the car was worth 2 days later a volvo drives straight into the back of me and rit me off. I spent 2k replacing engines and got paid 1k from insurance for the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The stuff they're putting down is rubbish. Its called safecote, when it gets damp it's like diesel - so the smartest thing they could think of... hmmm lets put some more down = brown pants x 4! You're not wrong there, when I'm driving the CLK (55 reg), with all of it's TC and ESP and all the fluffy b0lloc| And I've noticed the big piles of 'grit' too, the roundabout at J11 of the M5 is a terrible example... Anyway, Razza, I hope you get yours sorted soon, I'm still trying to get mine rebuilt, it's a bit worse off than yours, and I jumped the whole car up a 6" kerb buckling 2 Volks in the process, I'll attach a pic (Well 3) of mine to try and cheer you up... Turns out mine was smashed in Japan before I had it, so I'm repairing that damage too, but after that's done, I don't know what's been done to the suspension and so on, but although mine's an NA with a couple of oil leaks, I'm still getting her sorted, although it's now taken over 6 months (Mainly down to me working all of the hours under the damn sun) - Just keep the faith, I am... No matter how bad it sounds, driving the Sup again and 'your' sup, will make up for it - I could have sold mine and bought a TT, many on here will say I'm silly for not doing so, but I'm staying true to the car I fell in love with!..

Suprash Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Razz, what have you been doing, totally feel for you dude, especially after seeing your car down at ToyotaGT so much lately, but I have noticed to how greasy the roads seem to get at the moment and I swore it was that grit as the roads seem to get all slippery a day or so after it goes down. I have had my back end stepping out on manouvers that normally wouldnt stress the car at all..... I have a set of CR's that Im ready to sell, maybe you should buy the set that way you will have enough wheels to see you through the last couple of months, lol, sorry, that was in bad taste, but just in case you get stuck keep me in mind..... And dont sell her mate, you will regret it, its just shit bad timing this has happened just after getting her back with all your other troubles. And for the misses, she has to start understanding your a Supra enthusiast now and you need to chuck some money at your hobby, it keeps you entertained, Im still trying to explain it to my parents, everytime I see them they just sigh and ask why Im still ploughing money into my car, they just dont seem to get it......
