Hi World. heres my baby EF with a few bruises. What happened was this; Road conditions were fine, I simply was going up an onramp, when my car lost control and spun out of control. WOW, it happens to fast.. I did more than a 180* and slammed passenger side into the about 4 inch high side walls. The car jolted upwards, and came to an halt. Im now estimating the speed at the time i lost control to be around 45, but it came down significantly while sliding in the turn.

now the front tires flat, the steelies are bound to be bent. HOWEVER, the worst noticable damage is at the rear. The wheel is kicked in by more than 4 inches maybe. It has a large degree of tilt also, wheel wobbles side to side if rolled forward (dont worry, id dint attempt to drive it, just noticed as it rolled away onto a tow truck.) :-P So world, any ideas of the reall possible "internal" damages.

here are some pics:

 

ouch, its not too bad, but my money is on slight frame damage...

Yea...check the part of the car where the rear lower control arm connects to.

 

That sucks..

 

do what they suggested above and PRAY u bent the trailing arm NOT the frame.

 

yea just pray its not any frame damage...

 

damn...i spun out my CRX the first day i had it. i went from a RWD to a FWD and found out the handling is WAY diffrent.

thankfully i only spun twice (or so the black marks looked like) and ended up in the side ditch. i was so freakin scared No damage to my baby though

 

check trailing arm, upper control arm, lower control arm, compensator arm. if you're frame is bent bring it to a collision center or start from scratch with another shell.
sorry man it sucks but its what you have to do

 

that lower control arm looks bent after the shock towards the wheel. what about your swaybar it doesn't even look bolted on.... need better pics but that's what i can see.

time for upgrade... might as well get teg rear trailing arms w/ disk swap.... because i'm sure if the lower control arm is bent then so is the trailing arms mount. i have a set of teg ones and a set of civic ones if interested.

 

wheel you bought a CRX the most tail happy FWD car ever made.

 

how fast were you goin?
