The clock is ticking! - Mazz - 18-03-2019 more like a full blown kick in the balls! Yesterday (28/4/11) i get a call from Rob. telling me not to panic but to go out the front an look right there it was, my car stuck at a strange angle in the middle of bath road. so i ran down to it, in heels... I DONT DO RUNNING! lol well i cant remember much but these are the pics from what went wrong with my car..... after it got ripped out from the transfer box it got wedged on the road and in the tunnel of my car lucky it was a low speed that was done when this happened. as the day before the car was doing ~80 on the motorways to and from the air port! We will be getting this back on the road and it will be at japfest! but on the up, at least we dont have to cut out and replace part of the floor on the car! oh and then today.... the new VR4.... we have on order new lower arms and they are due to be delivered tomorrow. i had aaron in the car with me when this happened, thank F**K it happened when i was reversing off the driveway! the car is now stuck blocking not only my mums garage, but next doors as well! untill we get the parts fitted, but its proving to be more then a PITA getting off what needs to be got off! These will be at japfest this year come hell or high water! The clock is ticking! - Rabster - 18-03-2019 That is not good both off them going wrong more or less the same time hope you get them both running quick.... The clock is ticking! - Mazz - 18-03-2019 both went tits up in 24 hours of each other. but the green beast will be up an running again by tuesday eve the very latest! mine on the other hand.... iv got till the 13th...... i have a feeling its gonna be a late night that one! lol The clock is ticking! - Chri5 - 18-03-2019 as said lol looks like somebody has been trying to see if the little lights work lol The clock is ticking! - Lexusboy - 19-03-2019 Hope you get them both back on the road soon The clock is ticking! - Phil01 - 19-03-2019 Thats amazing what damage that has been done, even snapping the lower ball joint. Looks like the offending failed part was a seized prop U/J, and that caused all your damage. Hope you get it back on the road quickly The clock is ticking! - Mazz - 19-03-2019 no pushing to make the little lights come on as i knew i had the bangin/juddering to solve before i pushed the car. im like that, i will have a play every now an then but i wont push it to its full cos i know there was problems that needed addressing, but it being the only car working in the house hold and was needed for the business, i had no choice but to use it but take it careful. its a long long story, but basicaly i got ripped off an stolen from by the ex an his dad. the ball joint is on the green vr4, and the parts will be here either today or tuesday. easy fix that one. not so much for my one. but we will get there, im just in kick ass mode. The clock is ticking! - toxo - 19-03-2019 Well you will buy these rusty old cars! Oh wait - so do I! That's seriously bad luck to have them both go within days The clock is ticking! - Mazz - 19-03-2019 yeah, who would buy these jap **** cars eh! :lol: its more of a case of the cars going with in hours of each other! ****** things. but the green one will be back on the road by tuesday evening
