if you want reliable, don't buy a car..... and practicle for what?? Get a civic or something..you won't get a new & good Forry for less than 35k plus extras.

Was checkin em out the other day and I think ones a few yrs old look better anyway.

Def think keep as a weekend car is a good idea, then you can slowly work on it and change what you want with out the hassle of no transport.

i'm with the boys, keep the Skyline and just mod that. Be cheaper in the end by far and it be a awsome car. Plus as Fab said, them machines can take a beating and a half.

And your almost finished paying the skyline off anyway. And your skyline has alot more chance then keeping up with people than a heavy foz lol. You'll need to throw some good amount of money into the foz to make it reliable/fast.

One thing to remember tho, your only getting the std 2.5 engine in the foz. Not the Sti 2.5... Much much different. So they aint that strong.

You have plenty of time to think about what to do, cars are only coming down in price anyway.

yeah but i cant justify spending over 15g on it to make it better cos im bored with it now

you want to sell and buy a new car and then mod that again so you can keep up?... A foz will take alot of money to keep up.

And you wont need 15g to make yours quick. Make your own selection of parts and then get a tune up. Not just go by what a book or website says.

I got quoted 9g for a kit... so i went out there and brought the parts myself and cost me 6,500 lol. Rip off's eh! You'll be fine dude, go spend money on the skyline and actually use it :laugh: And yes, im refering to the drag strip hahaha

    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
    • yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.
