Masenko Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Hi guys. I was in a pretty serious head-on collision at the end of July (in my Supra of course). The combined speed of the impact was approx. 70mph, and as a result of having no airbags, my chest impacted the steering wheel, causing serious injury to myself; namely my sternum, ribs, lungs and heart. I was wearing my seatbelt, and credit this with saving my life; even though I have a seatbelt burn permanently scarred into my neck. Thankfully, I have almost fully recovered now, and I have a HKS Silent Hi-Power exhaust for sale, along with 4x17inch alloys, an AEM Tru-Boost gauge-type boost controller, and a set of rear lights. If anybody wants to buy any of these, PM me an offer, thanks. The car was a total write off. Here it is; I hope this image scares you into driving a little more carefully! http://photos-629.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-snc1/v312/121/12/506195629/n506195629_1673875_7309.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
