crawl under it...look at what's broken.

it's hard to tell what's broken inside. it could be a bent shock/shock tower, radial arms bent/broken/ripped out. frame/mounts bent.

My crystal ball says...........what DanNY said. How are we supposed to know without being there, popping off the wheel and inspecting things with you? I never get these types of threads....

absolutely no way to tell without hoisting it and looking

assuming the frame isnt damaged expect to be taking the whole rear suspension assembly for that side from a junkyard car. frame damage your best off getting a new car

Take the wheel off for us and take a picture and post it. We'll be better able to see what's bent. I'm thinking surely the radius arm is bent

No way there's any frame damage.

+1 -- A picture with the wheel removed will help. My daughter took a hit on the passenger side rear wheel in my 99 I30 that bent the wheel and bent the rear axle in the opposite direction. I picked up a rear axle from a salvage yard with another wheel to match and had it back on the road in a couple of days. The wheel bearing was noisy after taking the hit so I replaced it a few days later.

Looks like Blanka had his way with your car during the bonus stage.

Expect to replace all of the suspension on that corner, and possibly the wheel as well. You'll need to have a shop spin the wheel for true to see if its a no go. This includes parallel links, control arm, shock, hub assembly w/ bearing. Theres certainly potential for the shock tower having some minor damage but I've seen significantly harder hits into wheels that didn't throw the shock tower out of whack. The suspension components do a pretty good job of absorbing most of the hit in those cases.

I can't remember if these cars have a rear subframe, haven't been under mine in a while. it MIGHT be damaged but its pretty uncommon for the subframe to get destroyed without a serious direct t-bone hit to the side of the wheel or an actual impact to the subframe itself. They're pretty stout.

Easiest solution is to take it to a body shop and let the estimator do their thing. Here in the US at least, estimates are free. I don't know what the standard customs are in Brazil.

Here is the picture from the parts book for a 1992:

You might need the arm in the top left corner (part code 55401), or the connecting links that go to the strut assembly (part codes 55120P & 55121+A). Or all of them plus more.

As others have said, you will have to look and see.
