Well yesterday it was pouring kinda hard, and i was coiming outta this turn at 35 and this ass in a civic is not even in his lane and almost hits my rear end so i paniced and swurved outta the way and i hit the f****ing curb, my drivers side wheel smacked into the curb, and this ass aint even stop to check if i was out, luckly my friend was in front of me he stopped to help me out, and since he or i dont know much bout engine and stuff we didnt know what to do, so i called my dad told him what happend and he told me to call my cousins whos a machanic, so when he arrived he looked at it and said its prolly the front axle, and the lower control arm, ten we tried to push it while one of us tried to reverse the car, the car wouldn't reverse, then when he was putting the gear back to park we hear this awful griding noise then he told me the tranny might be ****ed, then when my dad should up i got the biggest bitching i ever hear from him. then we called a towtruck to tow it back to my house, and he sais that it could be my tranny and my engine, but my engine started up fine. So basically im screwed im a highschool senoir and i dont have a job and now this, so from what i heard from them is if we fix the axle and lower control arms then we can test the tranny if its ok ,but if the tranny is gone then i dunno, my cousin just said to sell the car, but i dont want to do that, also something bout if the frame is bent then all is lost, and im not sure if insurance can do anything bout this, well if anyone can help in any way i would appreciate it all i know is my dad is pissed and i have to do something , so has this happened to anyone, also what are prices for a 94 axle, lowercontrol arms, St tranny, and incase frame work. man im screwed cause i wont know how the tranny is until we fix the lower control arms and the axle, but if we fixed it and the tranny is screwed, then....damn it. sorry bout all the language. thanks guys

Yeah last winter I screwed up my Celica real good, when I hit my friend's in his 98 Talon (his first day driving it). The insurance paid for all $4000 dollars of it. Unfortunatly they have decided to have me start paying it back this year in a significant raise in rates. But hey since they had to repaint about half the car I paid $2000 for them to finish the rest of it. Which is goofd for two reasons; one the exact color match wasn't very exact and two 120,000 miles had nearly destroyed the paint on the front spoiler. So you never know what might come out of the situation.
