Default another rex down

so yea I wrecked my car today. Im fine physicaly but my car wasn't so lucky. Im so pissed/depresed right now I cant even begin to explain it with words. I never really gave info for my car on the internet before cause i was afraid of theives so here we go:




Chassis-
1988 crx hf frost white(lighest 88+ honda at 1800lbs and RUST FREE

Exterior-
Stock

Wheels suspension-
Silver slipstreams
Ground control coilovers
kyb agx struts
Jim Fab front crossmember
neuspeed upper strut bar
si rear sway

Interior-
Autometer phantom boost gauge, egt, oil pressure (custom plate where ac controls used to be)
Techedge wideband o2
si steering wheel
88 si door panels
ricer shift ****, pedals, and short shifter
98 Gsr Gauge cluster(perfect fit and 100% working)
Vafc
greddy turbo timer

engine-
b18a rebuilt less than 2 weeks ago(new rings, seals, acl bearings, everything)
tinker sst manifold
tial wg
sc61 turbo w/ S compressor cover
tinker 3 in dp
place racing mounts
custom straight 3 in exhaust w/ 2 resonators and dump
custom intercooler and piping by vsv(smashed)

Thats all I can think of off the top of my head. I had just finished getting it all together less than a week ago and had barley driven it at all. Car was so much fun and now its gone.

Damn man...sorry to hear that. Is there a possibility that it could be fixed? If not, a lot of that stuff would be easy enough to transfer over to a new shell and you could get your little beast up and running again - it sounds like it was a great setup.

Good luck!

Oh, got pics of the car before the wreck?

I just saw a 88 hf shell in the classifieds for 700.
Sorry about your loss on a sweet car.
Did the motor/turbo come out undamaged?

Damn, I always hate to see a CRX wrecked, especially one as nice as yours.

If you're planning on parting it out to help finance its replacement, I'd be more than happy to help by taking the driver's side door off your hands.

well dude sorry to hear that. it looks like it was in excellent shape. if its not fixable, part it out for what you can and work your way back again (if you're up for it). remember its just a hobby and there will be better days

i was turning left at a busy T intersection and a truck that was coming towards me was turning right on the road i was on so I started to go and there was another truck behind to his left that I couln't see so I pulled halfway out then it was too late. I was just in a hurry late for school, lucky he didnt hit my door! he was going 40-50 and I was allmost stopped going maybe 5 mph. I haven't got any tickets or wrecks before and I think of myself as a very safe driver. Some things are just out of your control sometimes, I honestly think it could of happened to anyone.
