DATTO MET DA FOOTPARTH

[sunny79datto]

yea well iz a bit stupid the other morning workvan wouldnt start so took my car to work..then my workm8 followed me home to tow my van back to work. 2nd to last corner from my house what do i do... dropped the clutch hanged it out then hooked it the other way n crossed up into the gutter smacked one of those deep gutters..
car got stuck on the footparth wasnt going to fast coz was doing a skid at the time but yea couldnt stop in time.. it pulled the tension rod out the tension rod bracket out the front so i took it off took it into supercheap they said dont need a new one coz its not bent just get new bushes so i got em put them in but the other end where it goes onto the bracket doesnt line up..it bolts into the lower arm sweet but when ya aim it to the tension rod bracket its about 50mm to short ...an bent the connection rod had to chop the bolt in half to get it out an at the moment im trying to get the bent bolt out of the lower arm thats bent an not comming out to easy think mite have to grind it.
the wheel is buckled an doesnt line up straight when put the other wheel straight. so at the moment im trying to find out whats bent can see the obviouse things but yea its tricky.
so iv lernt my lesson now dont go showing off on bald tyres lol
so i hope someone in chch has some parts that cant get from supercheap/repco places like that

Yeah bloody sunnys, did the same thing on old crossply 12's in mine, hooked right around via other lane, jumped curb on my side.
Must have looked fucking cool/rediculious.
I bent the wheel but havent come across any other serious damage when I uprated the swaybar.

The other gay thing as you'll know is the ministockers pilfer all the sunny fronts and it can be a nitemare to get simple parts.
The local wrecker is a stocker and has 2 B310s currently, MIGHT sell bits if you required them

ohyea trudat yea few yrs ago i hit the footparth an had to fix my mag n change the strut. i just grinded that bolt out the lower arm. that was scarey. what do you mean you uprated the swaybar? think i mite be replacing most steering sht under their. an yea h8 ministocks wish they fkd ova corollas lol. n if i can get parts here would you hook a datto niga up n buy em an i pay u?

[nzdatman]

an yea h8 ministocks wish they fkd ova corollas lol.

so it's alright for you to fuck over sunnys but not them? if you want to slide round corners why don't you get a ministock yourself? at least they do their skids without endangering others using the public roads

that we may but we aint fukin dick head wanker butchers that hack the shit out perfectley good cars just 2 get ya bogan kicks out of goin round the same circle over and over again

[MR1200]

and skids on dirt arent skids

[Bartman]

I'm guessing you've bent your lower control arm. They tend to bend when hit.

If I were you just to be safe, I'd change the Xmember lower arm and castor rod.

[nosebleed]

you sound like the biggest bogan hick..
youd be the type who'd get a minter sunny, chop the springs, glue some flares on it and wedge in some spitties auw bae..then go and try hard and pull a skid but actually only slipping on wet painted lines, over correcting cos your ability has been grossly denied by the fact your hat is covering your eyes hence the reason you hit said kerb and become the countries biggest looser..

go fuck yourself..

leave the ministockers alone, atleast theyr not single brain celled organisms like yourself..you say they only go round and round a dirt track, yeah but you go round and round the same fucking streets trying to pull "bitches" who end up being either underage or over weight, or so fucking hideous that their parents has thrown them out of home..

people like you fuck things up for everyone who enjoys cars!!!

woah this thread has got really out of hand........

im keeping my mouth shut, like some of you should.

Ministock racing is not aligned with the purpose of this club.
"the preservation and enjoyment of datsuns, and datsun era motor vehicles, including vehicles manufactured by the prince motor company".

Butchering datsuns to build jumped up go karts that can then be driven around in circles in the dirt does not constitute preservation. the facts speak for themselves.

Andy has owned his car for quite some years now. And from time to time in the commission of "enjoying our datsuns" we all might run out of talent. (This aside, this club doesn't condone any illegal driving on public roads) Since He's going to fix it, it's counterproductive to judge andy as a flat peaker based on the merits of the 1st post. Without 1st knowing him.
