Hey H-T, I have a 99 si. The front two wheels are pushed back into the fenders, I can fit 4 fingers up front as opposed to 2-3 in the back. I read up on this and it can be a number of issues, bent lca, subframe. Since both wheels are pushed back, does this mean it's the subframe? I figure if it was the control arms it would only be one side that was bent, what do you guys think?

 

Pics. How did the wheels get that way?

 

I bought this car a couple of months ago, I know the previous owner was driving through the mountains and hit some kind of boulder, no frame damage but the radiator support was ruined. If both sides are like this is it safe to assume it's the subframe?

 

if both sides are like that, it's rather safe to say the subframe took some damage.

Why do all these people buy messed up cars when they don't even know what they're buying!?

 

I think they call that a "project car"

 

Usually one buys a project car when they know what they are getting into.

 

No, this isn't a project car, as marc said, most buy a "project car" when they have a clue whats going on. This guy has no clue at all. (not to be a jerk, but it is true)
