I know its not directly related to car value, but you should seriously consider going to a chiropractor for an evaluation (go to one that does full X-Ray evaluation). When I was younger, and bullet-proof, I would just shrug off stuff like this. Now I pay heavily from torn ligaments and scar tissue and vertebral mis-alignment and therefore pain that could have been reduced or even eliminated, if I had the proper treatment early on.

At the very least, get a set of X-Rays done to see if there is any injury.

I would have to agree. A couple years ago I was a passenger in a car accident and though I went to the hospital for other injuries (broken nose, fractured cheekbone, sprained elbow of all things), they never really checked my neck and back. Now that I'm having problems my doctor thinks that it's directly related to not taking care of it from the start. Be sure you go and get yourself checked out. Effects of whiplash can take up to two weeks to show, other injuries longer.
Outta the game!

ICBC called me and said it is going to be a write off, they haven't given me any figures of what they will give me for it yet though, hopefully I will find out tommorow.

And I am going to get my back and neck checked out like some of you have suggested.

Offer this guy like 1k, see if he bites.
Buy back your old car.
Use the funds from your old cars write off to purchase it.
Pick up a 6 bolt install kit into a 2G.

Swap everything into it. (aslong as the bodies mint right?)

And youve got a 2G with a 1G heart!

Pretty much a awesome upgrade

Just cause its automatic doesn't mean it's not a good car. Or be made into a better one.

not true, the only difference is in the cams, injectors, and ecu. auto cams are ground for low end torque and manuals are better for top end. they also come with the 13g turbo and a weird exhaust manifold where the collector is off center. All these things off a manual car is transferable to an auto car with no draw backs.
