Hey, hows it going? The name's Andrew and I'm 19. Here's a bit of background about my obsession with Skylines.
First off, I'll start by saying I DON'T currently own a skyline but I'm a huge fan of them ever since I first saw one (back when R32 and R33 GTS-Ts was a very rare sight on the roads).
The sexy looks they had got me intrested, but it was a ride in a mates Tommy Kaira R33 GTS-T (shame it was auto) that I started to relise that these things are the perfect package: show AND go.
Needless to say, I have wanted one in my driveway ever since.
Having cousins and mates who owned turbo imports, they pretty much advised me to steer away from a turbo import cos for my age (and virtually no job), maintaining one is going to be the biggest cost killer.
If you cant afford to keep it, then it doesnt matter if you can afford to buy it.
So that's how I ended up with the CH Lancer I have now. Perfect for now (except the street cred, good looks, power etc of a Skyline of course) until I get off my P's and get a real job. Also gives me time to save up for either a R32 GT-R or a R34 GT-T coupe and the mods.
Found out about SAU ages ago, but didn't sign up cos I knew I was still way off from owning one, but in a few years I hope to own one, so I thought now would be a good time to sign up and learn about the pitfalls associated with one so when it comes time to buy, my research is properly done.
I posted some pics of the car I have now (few things have changed since these photos, but looks basically like that), so if you see me, give us a yell.
If theres a members ride section (for non-skylines) then I would post them there with some other pics of the interior etc..
Cheers.
