buy the GTR but I would get a R32 :dry:

Hi there,

GO FOR A GTR 32 then you have maybe 5 grand to mod the engine modes(LEGAL)

Then no one will be able to catch you (except me).

And you are home when you get pulled over.

But if you have another $10,000 to spend buy your friends and do that up. :yes:

WHy would you want to spend 12k in one hit??

Why not save atleast 5k of it..

What happens if you have an accident?? Or something pops up..

USE IT TOWARDS SAVINGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

you will deff need it later on in life..

Someone said summers coming....................... just think of the bike :yes:

Yeah, having to wear heavy leathers in the middle of the Summer heat, unless you want to take the risk of losing most of your skin if you come off the bike while being a squid.

Summer's coming - buy something with air con and that you can cruise around in while wearing shorts and a t-shirt.

after working your ass off for the money i would say go on a f*ken holiday get out the globe and pick a destination!!!!......and mod up your skyzee a little get that fat stereo you always wanted and whatever else without going over the top?

if not go for the gtr if you can get it or maybe even a 32 gtr

done the holiday thing. been to europe and us and shit. now i'm 25, been saving for a while, and 12k is what i am willing to fork out whilst hanging on to some savings for the rainy day, or house deposit. the cash is there to be spent for my enjoyment after saving for a long while. am leaning towards either gtr or bike, because if i spend it on the gtst, that money has basically disappeared, with little chance of getting it back. but how fast can i make the gtst go for 9k? if anybody has a list of mods, plus installation for a 9k budget, i would appreciate it....

red or black.....red or black.......

OR

spend $5K on gts-t, $3K on an LCD TV, $1K on car stereo and keep the rest for defects/EPAs and fines. You will need it once u put some mods in.

go for the 33 gtr! or get a phucken fat 32 gtr with a few mods done to it

with the 32 you might even have a few k left over for that fully sick stereo

check these out!!

    • Standard GTRs are boring and there plenty of them, do what ever you want to it and just remember nothing about them is cheap anymore and if you’re picky about how you want things done it gets even worse.    if it’s an n1 or something very limited then maybe care more about it’s heritage 
    • Alright guys, I've got good odds the motor survives due to a majority of spare parts. Who's taking bets on clutch, who's on transmission, and who's go diff? Happy to also take bets on if it still overheats in traffic or not 😛     Car looks amazing by the way. I've never been a fan of R34 rears, so really, I don't think any body kit etc solves that for myself, but the front end looks amazing!
    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
