**** I Crashed My Car!!!!!!!!!!!! ****
 
:crap::crap::crap::crap::crap::crap::crap::crap:

i was making a turn and my car slipped out of control. my front passenger side wheel is slanted. i think it is the alignment. when i reverse, it makes some screetchy sound.

OHHHH and to top things off, my left HID blew.
does anyone know a place i can get it fixed for cheap. and fast! gotta get back to school this weekend.

Control Arm in your front suspension might be gone, if it is then its a costly fix job. more so then just an alignment. If there was body damage I would say talk to Phoenix but I dont have a super trusted Mechanical shop yet which I can stand up and say its the top quality.

:(

sorry to hear
[ ] Winter tires: Michelin X-ice + steelies ($500. 80% thread left.)
did you have those tires installed?

RUBBERDUCKEY Feb 19, 2009 05:58 AM

That suxs where are you located I can talk to a my gf friends whos cousin or brother is a mechanic he fixed so far 2 cars I know a 1993 celica and 2003 corolla and both looks great after fixing I can ask but he's located in brampton. Or just get the parts and we have a meet at your house to fix it.

YeVoLuTiOn Feb 19, 2009 06:06 AM

Yup that's your lower control arms. My friend hit a nice pothole a few weeks ago and it snapped on him. He too had that screeching too. But it most definatly sounds like your control arm. Get under and take a quick peek at it.

Hydrolikz Feb 19, 2009 07:18 AM

WTF?!? One name for you Malik!!! You know he'll give you the best deal and do a good job, so why waste your time asking?

rontam90 Feb 19, 2009 08:15 AM

yo dan wtf?! when did this happen? didnt i meet you yesterday?

For alignment definitely bring it to HomieG's mechanic, the one hydroliks said. Malik by Heritage. I got a feeling its more than just alignment man

Hydrolikz Feb 19, 2009 09:16 AM

Yo Ron, imma roll wit G & Dan to Maliks today wanna reach?

whitelancerGTS Feb 19, 2009 09:27 AM

so i brought it into cdn tires to fix it so i can at least drive it home.


they pretty much straightened the inner tie rod and did a wheel alignment. cost me $252.54

when i drive the car right now, my steering wheel is still a little bit shaky. when it is around 80km/hr. its quiet shaky. i still havent tried high way yet....

omg this is bs

Qwest905 Feb 19, 2009 07:18 PM

who is this malik that you speak of?

Hydrolikz Feb 19, 2009 08:01 PM

He's a mechanic that has worked on alot of the club members rides, so he's pretty familiar with the Lancers. And he just finished fixing whitelancerGTS's car for a nice price.

Qwest905 Feb 19, 2009 08:35 PM

ahhh nice...where abouts is he located?

sovain Feb 20, 2009 08:04 AM

Will your springs fit my RA,if so i`m interested.

whitelancerGTS Feb 20, 2009 08:42 AM

at the end of the day:

i spent $250 @ cdn tire. ( got jipped for alignment. DO NOT GO THERE GUYS!!)
the car was PROPERLY fixed at Malicks for $140!!!!.

trust me guys, his garage is legit. goto him if you guys need any type of work done. he is a proper guy, fair prices and great customer service.

highly recommended !

blancy612 Feb 20, 2009 12:06 PM

~the official shop of the Toronto Lancer Club~ hahaha

absolute Feb 20, 2009 01:51 PM

so was just the alignment thrown off? nothing really broken ?:P

Hydrolikz Feb 20, 2009 04:25 PM

Nope his control arm, and rim was what took the damage. But of course you need to re-align everything after you fix it

Hydrolikz Feb 20, 2009 04:27 PM

laksman91 Feb 23, 2009 09:53 PM

speaking of drawing on salt dust.. isn't that bad for the paint like it will scratch it slightly? Some douchebag at school wrote on mine today and I was very angry.

LancerGirl08 Feb 23, 2009 10:23 PM

I dunno... writing on it hasn't affected it so far.

However there's a million other scratches on it from other things.

flawlesss22 Feb 23, 2009 11:05 PM
