i personally agree to buying a stock car and modding it the way u want it , and not the way somebody else has already done!

You also have all the stock parts with u, incase u will need em again. Plus doing up a car is so much more fun than buying a done up car already! Iv owned 4 skylines, and were all originally stock! I had the best time doing them up, .....then getting rid of em LoL :)

but the downside is, it will cost u alot more to buy a stock car and do work on it rather than buying a worked on car already.

But in the end i guess evryone has a differnt opinion to how they like there cars

My 2cents:

- DON'T rule out buying a nice, SENSIBLY modified car. If it looks good, feels good, and 2nd/3rd opinions from trusted folk agree, then it probably IS good ! If you're thinking FMIC in the future though, DEMAND a stock airbox, even if it's not fitted.

- Most "Stock" cars have been modified here, or in Japan at some stage, and returned to stock for compliance, or to sell to people chasing a stock car. i.e. Don't think You're getting a low-stressed, darling car JUST because it looks stock NOW.

- Feel okay about thinking twice, and/or making someone wait a day or two while You take a second look/drive of another car You think you like better. I wish I'd gone for a slightly neater, silver R33 S2 I'd looked at - but I got the White beastie with rock-hard bastard suspension instead. You makes your choice, You lives widt it. (sic)

I knew within 2 days EXACTLY what mods I was going to do to mine - it's just one of those things ! ! ! - 2 years on I'm still sticking to that original plan!

Only things I'd change are paint, and the rock-hard suspension. Although, the HKS Hiper'Ds ARE FANTASTIC on P.I.. . .

Maybe I'd keep the suspension after all.. . . . .
