: My poor b14 is totaled! :-(
Brakedust 01-30-2006, 09:30 PM My car was parked out in front of my apartment building, at about 10 pm, a lady came up my street and smashed into the rear of my car! She hit it so hard, that it pushed my car up and over the sidewalk curb, and almost hit my building.
Good news is that there were some witnesses. So the cops were able to find her and pick her up. As it turns out, she was twice the legal limit for alcohol, and also high from smoking pot. She was arrested for hit & run, and DUI.
The bad news is that she didn't have insurance :( . Luckily I carry full coverage on the SER. So I will hopefully be able to buy it back from my insurance company for cheap.
Now I just have to figure out what my next step is.....I just started my apprenticeship as an electrician, so money will be tight for the next 2 years or so.
So now I'm sporting my 98 gmc sonoma...kind of slow, and doesn't really corner that well :(.

Dan_93SER 02-01-2006, 12:54 AM Oh man, that sucks, Bryan!
At least she hit the rear, I guess...
PNWser 02-01-2006, 02:02 PM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!
that sucks. Alot. FWIW I can probably buy those wheels from you and give you some extra cash if you need it :)
What kind of a replacement are you looking for?
Check craigslist.... and one way tickets.. Just flew to Oakland this last weekend and got a G for a friend..... find a car- find a friend.. make a trip!

BlkB14 02-03-2006, 02:10 AM that does suck, and its exactly the reason i have a fear of parking my car on the side of the street.
SHAWNATGERBROCK 02-07-2006, 08:11 PM I guess its time for a super B14 XE-R sleeper ...:D
200SX_SER 02-08-2006, 01:46 AM NOOOOO, that whore!
that sucks bro... you gettin another B14 or ***?
Brakedust 02-08-2006, 08:51 PM update:
car is totaled (no surpise). I bought the car back, so now it's a donor car. I still live in the stone age...no digital camera, and I do not have internet at my apartment! lol. The girl who hit my car live only like 10-12 blocks north of me, and since the accident, the portland police have called me back and informed me that the house is shady. If I sue her, I'm worried that A. she has no money anyway, and B. the lowlifes at that house will come down and start some s%$t! I'll pass on that drama.
here's what I've come up with for options:
1. buy another b14 SER, swap brakes and suspension this spring, and do the tranny/motor this summer.
2. buy a B14 SE, swap brakes and suspension this spring, and drive the 1.6L until this summer and do the tranny/motor swap.
3. buy a 91-94 sentra, whatever model in good condition, and swap brakes, install some sort of basic suspension (hyperco's/koni reds?) in the spring, and swap tranny/motor/harness/guages? etc. in the summer.
If you guys have any ideas or know of a good deals, please let me know. I will be ready to buy in about 2 weeks probably. Thanks in advance.
P.s. david, I still have those factory b14 wheels sitting in my bedroom waiting to sell. :) let me know if you're still interested.

nissanboi 02-08-2006, 08:56 PM ^^ awesome
Dan_93SER 02-08-2006, 11:25 PM This was a sign. The gods are angry that you've been driving a B14.
Get a Classic. You know you want one.
PNWser 02-09-2006, 11:50 AM This was a sign. The gods are angry that you've been driving a B14.

Indeed. I agree. You need a B13....
bet I could find one for sale.... :) not looking for the devil's b14 though .. :(
still need wheels! worse than ever! I will get ahold of you this weekend about that :)
find a car- the right car, and go get it. Fly-n-buy, baby!
SENTRAMAN 02-09-2006, 11:57 AM Hey if dave doesn't pick those wheels up I will. Would've told you about this $400 SE-R i justed picked up in salem, but i had to get it it was a great deal and teh body is clean except for some fading. Also Anthony Sosa has his for sale for 2100 and is clean looking, also there are a couple in seattle area.
SENTRAMAN 02-09-2006, 12:00 PM Also there is and auto white 200SX SE-R for 3K and a black auto for 1800.
You wanna sell some stuff?

Teal97 02-09-2006, 08:04 PM you have a lot of B14 parts at your finger tips. a B14 would be much easier to put my spare VE into ;) B14's are sexier. no drooping door hinge problems, B13 owners upgrade their cars with B14 parts. what more is there? haha
Brakedust 02-10-2006, 11:51 PM hmm, I feel like I'm being pulled in two directions! B13....B14....
Ric: getting another B14 would be easier, but this does not mean I need a VE :). I have a perfectly good 11:1 motor ready for a transplant....
Of course buying a b13, I would save alittle money, but none of my suspension would transfer over....maybe if I could find a clean/straight one...
Sentraman: where did you see these cars for sale at? I've been on the internet looking, but really haven't found too many deals. Did you check a certain website?
David: The wheels are still available, same deal as before. Call me! :) I am available most of the day saturday the 11th, and most of the day sunday the 12th.
I don't want to sell any of my parts from my ser. I want to transfer them over to the new car I get.
I still have a pacesetter header for sale. I made 164 whp with it, then spent $600 and bought/installed a GEN6 hotshot which put down 164 whp.....hmm nice investment. So make me an offer :)

Yup.
I don't know if I am going anywhere this weekend though, I am sick enough that driving sucks- and that doesn't happen very often. I'll give you a ring soon.
SENTRAMAN 02-11-2006, 03:08 AM David let me get them please...
