Life After Skylines.

[Dirty32]

Hey all.

Just a general topic to see how life is after selling a skyline.

Im selling mine and the buyer will be picking it up on friday.

Speaking from past experience, have you regreted selling your car??

Do any cars that you buys after selling a skyline compare??

What do you do with your spare time now that you have nothing to clean or maintain or spend money or, or even take it for a little spin for fun??

Now by no means am i backing out of selling as it is purely a financial choice for me (and i know ill buy another GTR in future) but im kinda gettin sad that its finally happening and im not going to have a GTR to love and look after...?? Ill be pretty devo when i see her leaving up the road in someone elses ownership

Nothing serious, dont want any haters postin, but just after some feedback from people that have sold before.

Im gonna enjoy my last few days anyway..

MAtei regreted it so bad, should never have done it.

A tthe time i was peed off wiht my car and the ni missed it. I bought a pimped beema with tv leather tetc etc but htat didnt cut it. 1 year late ri bought another skyline to replace the hole in my heart. lol

I moved from my SII 33 GTS25T to an SII GTR V-Spec so that wasn't so hard but only after a short period of owning it I'm considering selling it and moving to something a little more practical for my line of work (in which I have to lug bits around and do a few K's now) so that might be a diff story when someone launches it down my street after having collected it =D

Keep your chin up, I don;t wanna get flamed bad for this but in the end it's just a car and I'm sure ther eare many more things in your life to be thankful for =D

you dont ever really get over it... some days i miss my old skyline so bad i think about buying another one in the same colour and doing the same mods to it just to feel like my baby is back... but after a while you notice the amount of money building up in your account and you think "shit!! how much money did i really piss away on that thing?"... so it sort of balances out

Its also got to do with the car you buy next... i lost my liecence so i was walking around for a bit but then i had to get a VX commo for work purposes and to taxi my family around. If you get a slow car next thats an auto, you'll miss the liner pretty bad. But if you pick up a sporty little replacement, than life dun seem too bad.

I think my next car will contain an LS-1 cause im sick of going slow... i wanna go fast again, and to be honest i wanna stay away from turbo's these days. The whole hoon thing is too much of a head fcuk

You'll be fine, I had my highly modded GTR for 6 years until I sold it in November, cant say ive missed it.

couple good replacements i see but..

i cant really say never sold 1.1st line.dont think ill ever part with her

[Dirty32]

Ive got a good replacement in a brand spanking new BF XR6 Turbo ute, but i dont have the same love for it as i have my GTR.

Just love the way you can hear the nissan spool and boost, and the way you can throw it around and it just grips and feels safe, the brilliant handling.

Even tho iv got the K&N panel filter in the ute, you cant hear it spool or boost, and it doesnt handle nothing like a GTR...

Suppose ill just live with it, and as ctjet said, im sure ill notice with the extra money in the bank.

Don' shoot me but I'm considering selling my GTR and going to a VZ Clubby =\ 6L is a lot of engine!

[gun32gtr]

^^^^^^^^^^yeh 6l of comodore..lol wouldnt trade my gtr for any v8..

[No Crust Racing]

Haha =D I Started out in a Commodore but yeah I see it as step down but into a more balance car overall for my job and lifestyle - Getting a bit sensible in my old age =D

[Husky33]

I sold my first skyline, which i loved so much, as i was sick of getting hassled.

A bit more than half a year later i bought another skyline, i just couldn't resist. Now i'm doing all the things i wanted to do to this, and enjoying every single mod i do, enjoy every single drive i take it for, because i know ill get a bit more mature and sell later.

Enjoy it while it lasts, but there is life afterwards.

Yeah the Evo was the GT-R's replacement, great little car, about half the power of the GT-R but cant say I really used all that power too often.

As for 6L of Commodore V8, had my 1st drive of a VE Clubsport the other day, very impressive.

[kralster]

Yeah i miss mine a bit sometimes.

Yesterday i was driving up my street and i used to just put it in 2nd a put the foot down and it would just so smoothly pull all the way to 100 km.

And now my little pulsar you gotta go through 4 gears to get to 100.

But i've got some plans for something new in the next 2 months.

So i'll be happy again.

[No Crust Racing]

i did nearly the exact same thing, cept i got a merc c36 amg. great car....but i miss the r33 on a daily basis.

cant wait for my v35. u'll be hearing from me j-spec

[Kinks]

Sold my R31/RB20DET, and a month later bought my R33 series 2.

it was a planned upgrade, don't regret it for a second

[Hulk1010]

what a depressing thread

[Morgs]

No real regrets for mine, I feel like a millionare now that I don't have to keep breaking / upgrading it

[blk180]

Thinking of selling but what would i do with all that money i waste. I think i would buy another which is why im not sure weather to sell this one and start again or sell the engine and start again.
