Hey guys,
While looking through some of the other forums etc. I stumbled accross this really good idea whereby another SAU member has posted up how much his car costs him in the interest of saving younger people getting into too much debt because they went out and bought a lemon or whatever, which is quite... . The idea of the thread is to allow current and perspective Skyline owners to post up what it costs to maintain their car to the level that they maintain it too, factoring the modifications done to the car and how they treat it.
Here's the info or template if you will:
Car make/type/model: Nissan Skyline R????
Year: ?
Overall condition of car: 1/10 (broken and undrivable) to 10/10 (showroom)
How is the car treated: 1/10 (I drive like a grandmother) to 10/10 (I circuit race and drive like a Stig on speed and my name is Reece McIntosh (Turismo))
Maintenance level: 1/10 (I put fuel and sometimes oil in it) to 10/10 (I am a majority shareholder of Nissan... A.K.A. My name is Reece)
Modifications: Stock/bolt on's only/Internals/full house
Insurance: None/3rd party/Full comprensive/Other
Estimaged power: ?
Estimated to the tank fuel usage: ???KM to the ??L tank
Estimated $ spent per year to maintain: $xxxx per annum / $xx / month (NOT COUNTING UPGRADES or Registration)
So my reasoning is to give local peeps an idea of what they are up for in a local market place with Canberran conditions in mind. Also, in the original thread there were a HELL of a lot of people who posted stats on R33 GTS-Ts and I know that there is a pretty strong 32 culture in ACT so I would be curious to see the difference.
