frame damage question??

i have a 94 vr4 and got in a car crash last friday. the truck that got in my way and i hit is really bad i mean the frame is just bad. if my car happends to have frame damage what should i do. would it affect it since its awd and stuff like that. if it does should i sell it to the insurance company. need help thanks.

If it has frame damage your car will most likely be totalled. The only way to get it strait after that is to put it on a frame bench and strech it back to "how it was". If it was my car I would see if any of the drivetrain parts are good and if I could buy the car back for less than I could part it ouf for.

ya, you could take it to a frame alignment place and see what they could do.

I'm really sorry to hear that man... you've got a really nice lookin vr4. I'm thinking maybe 1000+ dollars to get the frame re-alligned

if i does which i dont know yet i think they are going to call me tomorrow but it it does. should i keep the car because i really like vr-4 but i dont know if it will be the same.

well I know of a special frame bending machine that supposidly restores it to normal. If you did plan on selling it in the future, and someone gets a carfax, than you will be screwed... I was faced with the same decision when my z's frame got bent. In the end, I decided that it wasn't worth the 1,200 to re align the frame, and the 1-2000+ dollars I'd have to spend to get the entire front suspension and random other parts replaced, all in the end to run the risk of the car never handling the same again. I was worried it wouldn't ever be able to recieve a proper wheel alignment, and that it would pull no matter what.

When my mom's fiat, and my friend's old imperezza's frames got bent neither drove right. It's up to you man.
