My mate got a vx clubsport R8 they go pretty hard, but how can u go from a turbo car to a v8.

[LTHLRB]

sell up... buy urself a silvia... then rb26 and slap it in

sorry but i cant wrap my head around a crap car

[R33GOD]

i still love the skyline more... but im thinkin newer car ya know?? worth it or are they crap?

[LTHLRB]

their crap, they dont handle, they are utter rubbish man.. no way i would buy one.. id thrash one though

get a VY SS ute with a coupla turbos

[R33GOD]

i just like the look of them in black. but if there crap cars i wont bother. have to look into it abit more

[LTHLRB]

yeah their not the best cars, their ALRIGHT but i wouldnt go from a jap car to one of them.. same with fords, i work on them everyday, and the build quality isnt there...

but id love a FORSE 6 with a few goodies on the engine.. but thats looking 60k upwards.

[R33GOD]

im just weighing it up. go for something slower, more comfy and newer and slap an exhaust only on it, and never worry about it again.

or keep modding the skyline lol, il have to spend the extra cash to buy the r8 anyways. so what to do

[bluey33]

Sell up and get a silvia S15. If you like the R8 take one for test drive, you may like it more then these other guys.

im not a fan but its got alot of mods

[LTHLRB]

alot of mods? thats just the beginning.. if he was into cars it would have been full drift spec by now..

thats just a slight taste of mods.. and top of the line aswell..

Depends why you are changing, just because its newer? Or are there other factors such as work km's, lack of police attention, insurance, reliability etc. Also what do you want to do with it such as compete?

I think Phunky Monkey on here has a V8 Clubby, could be worth a PM to him but helpful to know the reasons behind wanting to change first.

newer and less attention from cops moreso

[saff_cossie]

^^ If thats the reasons, then that ticks the boxes assuming you are not on P's.

[R33GOD]

off my p's long time ago. 24 this yr

[eMsta]

whats your financials like?

Reason i ask is - If you plan to keep the hsv for the next 3 years, think about resale value, think about the trends, and think about what you would want to buy in the next 3 years (eg house).

believe it or not they are reliable cars, and even if you get issues with it you can pick up a whole commo motor for 50 bux lol

my cousin used to have a vy clubby r8. drove it once, it flies there's no doubt about that straight line very few cars stood a chance. it had 295kw from factory.

handling is a bit of meh but its not like an R33 is a go-kart....

thing is, he bought it when it first came out and payed 70 grand for it from a dealer, about 6 months later he sold it to the same dealer for just over 50Gs lol thats alot od money lost. could've got more if he went private but didn't have time and had to sell.

BUT R33s are going down in value too....
