hey guys, im new to the skyline scene, been wanting a gtr r34 since the first time i played gran turismo waaayyyy back in the day many many many years ago and now i've come to the point where i can consider getting one. So i was just after some quick advice on a few things.
first of all, i've owned a my99 wrx for 4 years and loved it, but its time to get something different, was considering a newer sti, but for the same price i much rather the GTR =)
so, i'll be 23 by the time i buy a GTR in a few months (please no flaming me over my age) and wondering if anywhere here is around my age with a GTR. just curious into the type of insurance they are paying (i plan to go with famous most likely, and will get a online quote soon) as insurance will be a big factor into getting the car, i really wouldnt want to spend more than 4 grand a year on it. living in a pretty nice neighbourhood.
but moving on. i've seen a few stock standard GTR's going for around 45k here in aussie.. is that to cheap for a GTR R34, as i've been told it sounds to cheap by a few people. buying one here in aussie would save the hassle of importing, but if im going to get a much better deal importing thats what im going to do.
which brings me to japan auctions, i've seen a few skylines online including a gtr r34 vspec for 43k with some standard mods (suspension, exhaust, fmic, etc) does that sound to cheap for a vspec? (of course this wouldnt be including the stamp duties and stuff associated with importing)
and last of all.. to vspec or not to vspec.. i seen that vspecs go for a little more, is it worth spending the extra money for a vspec or is the standard GTR pretty good as it is. my budget is roughly 50k (this is why importing looks so attractive as i can get a gtr with all the basic mods done for me)
i would love a vspec II, but my pockets are not that deep haha.
if anyone could offer any usefull assistance that would be great.
thanks in advance
