R32 Or R33, Gtst Or Gts?

Veeedka,

That is a damn fine car you picked up !!

There's always going to be someone telling you that you "could have" or "should have" etc but what you've got is a sweet ride !! So go out and enjoy it !!

And think about the money you don't have to spend upgrading the turbo or installing a FMIC etc, etc, etc.

Oh........ and welcome to the world of "Skylines"

That's what I thought

It's an awesome car to drive! I love the fact that I don't have to worry about rolling my car when going around corners anymore... so much easier and more fun!

Ah, I can see myself having fun with this for a while...

And thanks

How often are NSW skyline cruises? haha.

I'm in actually in the same situation as Veeedka was, when he looking for a skyline. I asked around if i should get a GTS and put in a turbo later on, but people advised me not to due to some having problems with high compression or something. Or removing the turbo from a GTS-T. So i opted to get a GTS and later on sell it to another kid in my situation who wants a skyline but must buy a GTS and i'll go get a GTS-T or GTR later on.

When it comes to cars, im an absolute noob. I was reading a thread on what to look for in a skyline, what i should be aware of and what problems to look for. My dad has some decent knowledge about cars but i don't think he would be able to spot everything listed.

A few things what im really concearned about is buying a rebirthed car (no idea where to look for if its legit or not, PIC's of the typical place it would be would be some nice help ) or a car which has been in an accident where the suspension has been damaged (after hearing the car will never be able to drive straight again).

Realistically what do you guys do when you buy/bought a car(skyline)?

Seems there are so many things to look for that it wouldn't be done in 1 day, coz seriously i would hate to have some guy coming more than 1 day having a constant look at the car for hours and taking it for spin and pushing the car.

Just an out of the blue question, what kind of mods are legal for P's after the restrictions? Exhaust, filters, Cold air intake or whateva? I won't be planning on putting it straight away, since i need to learn how to walk before i can run

EDIT:

and i do prefer the r33 looks over the r32

rebirthed skylines is a bit of a misnommer

often it is high kay engines that get rebirthed - or gtr's

a simple rac/nrma/whatever company is in ur state check with the engine number and chassis number and all that should be a sufficient check

and searching the forums helps - make the search ur best friend!!!

I was in the same situation as you, you've got a perfect amount of cash right there eh, any GTS around you can pretty much get. I picked up my r33 gts gunmetal grey, 74000k's for 12.7 from a dealer with lots of goodies Start looking on carsales.com.au and carpoint.com.au
