cant beleive this but I cant come on sunday...on wednesday night a car pulled out in front of me and as i turned my brake locked up. the car did a 180 and the rear wheel on the drivers side mounted the kerb...I bent the lower control arm, the tyre rods and even have to get a new axle. Parts wont come in from japan for 3-4 weeks. Does anyone know where i can get some good parts and quickly???

smorison you were right, everyone crashes at some stage......
