Unhappy TOTALED... Lots of FC parts available!!!

So, I moved to Elmira NY from Philadelphia 2 and 1/2 weeks ago, and totaled my pride and joy. I got T-Boned by a pickup with his blinker on that decided to change his mind last second and smash into my driver's side door. The engine is untouched. Witnesses and all, they found the "city kid" liable over the country bumpkin... I appear in court in a few weeks.

I spent the night in the ER getting the side window glass ripped out of the side of my head. I've got a bunch of staples holding the holes shut now. I "luckily" only suffered a concussion and lacerations. I wouldnt call losing my baby lucky, though.

I moved here for work, to save money for my hopeful transfer to Sophia University in Tokyo in March. I got hired at 2 full time jobs, and was on my way to saving up the money that I needed. Now, I'm kicked off of my father's insurance policy, carless, and faced with ticket fines.

I have a fresh J-Spec swap performed by a retired rotary mechanic in Brigantine, NJ. It's a 1991 S5 with approx. 60,000 KM @ 200k miles on the chassis. I put 5k miles on the engine in the past 2 years. Oil changed twice with Castrol GTX. 91-93 octane gas only. Garaged all winter, but started every week. Mods are as follows:

Real HKS Intake (with the CARB approval sticker)
Racing Beat FCD (So I've been told. It doesn't have any sticker/emblems)
Unknown brand manual boost controller (set at 8psi)
Real TurboXS RFL BOV (no Ebay knockoff crap)
Mazdatrix Competition Differential mount
Generic stut bar
Aftermarket downpipe
Custom downpipe-back exhaust with 3" stainless midsection mated to 2.5" Y with huge Borla mufflers (extremely low profile tip - looks stock but sounds great)
Electronic fuel pump w/interior toggle switch
2 gauge pillar pod with Autometer sport comp A/F and boost gauges
Reverse glow gauges (blue or green w/ toggle switch and dimmer)

Oh, and all new rubber (under 500 miles). I also have a set of 15x6.5 BBS mesh wheels in gold with machined lip with 1/2 tread Pirelli tires that I was going to put on but the offset is 5x112 and i didnt feel like redrilling. They are in amazing shape, and have the big *** BBS centercaps to boot.

I'm probably forgetting some things. Anyway, the driver's side door is smashed to smithereens. The passenger side is flawless. The body was gorgeous - its a rust free Jersey shore car, being this clean is rare for a NE car.

I'm willing to sell outright or do a part out. I'll probably ebay a lot of things. I wanted to offer it up here though, first. Make me offers on the whole thing, the engine, individual parts, interior (charcoal)... Anything to help me make my minimum tuition payments and save for Japan.

Email me directly at dirtysouthjerz@gmail.com for any requests. I will be happy to provide pics of ANYTHING. Thanks guys.

I can't afford the cost of maintaining it at this point. Or getting a shell or anything else. 93 octane gas up here in the mountains is like 3.50 a gallon. My job is 50 miles away until I move next month... I just can't do it and I can't afford it, period. I need money for rent and food more than anything esle. :\

I guess the glass in the side of your head explains why you posted this here and not in the for sale section

I saw an episode about vultures. LIke this dudes car is totaled and thats the dead prey. ANd you guys that need parts are like the vultures devouring whats left.

Dont take this the wrong way guy, im not saying ya are messed up, just that i thought of it as an analogy lol

I got your jackass. So, what are you trying to tell me? That the people from this certain region don't look in the for sale section??
Hey rotarydriver8, I apologize bro. Bad attitude earlier. Hope you are o.k and that the guy's insurance company takes care of all your bills.
