Upgrade Options

[Magic]

After next week I'll probably be in a Veilside kitted 3S-GTE Celica. Guy has got till Sunday to decide if he 100% wants to go ahead. It's something different to run around in while I save for the 34R in 2010.

Ask yourself some questions which will help you:

- How long do you plan on keeping it. It may be wiser waiting weeks/months/years to save more and buy what you really want. Always look long term.

- How much money will you have spare each month to put towards maintainence, repairs, or upgrades

- Can you afford insurance every year on the car

plenty more questions to look at but those should get you started and then you can narrow down your selection based on that.

And for rare, jap car thats pretty underated, Should look into a '00/'01 Galant they have lots of potential. and quick cars stock. Only thing is I don't think they come in manuals.

I bought my GTR with a rebuild in the pocket and some R34 GTR turbos on it, swisshhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Maintenance every 6 months.

im sure it cost alot more then 14k then

phsssssssssssst!

only way to get unique with 14k is to buy a modded one and stand out

[viet_boi]

Pulsar GTi-R?

180sx?

or the JZX100 your leaning towards

Id get a JZX100, something like this.

I have a Manual JZX100 S2 sitting in my garage for sale at the moment

Speak to Nav Rhys,

it is at his place being cleaned at the moment

[bubba]

go Aristo 1UZFE v8 either pimp it or great for power

Get an uber rare 4wd one!

P.S. Buy Mikes' Chaser

[NA_Goodness]

I've basically decided on the JZX100. I love those cars. I know I can't get one for $14k, but no harm in saving up. Mike, how much do you want for yours?

Bubba, I want to buy Mike's. I know he looks after his cars.

Yeah I've got a big soft spot for JZX100s, if I wasn't looking for a pratical daily wagon I would have bought his Chaser instead of the Stag

[Topaz]

are they not Chasers? why don't you foo's call 'em Chasers?

[Char]

pretty sure majority JZX100 are autos

turbo, manual, something unique.. buy an mx6 turbo or familia roughly 2 - 4k lol

[bubba]

You can get manual JZX100's.

Tom, JZX100 is the model (and not just Chasers, Chasers are the Tourer V models, you can also get MarkII's and MarkII Grandes), and I don't like JZX90 Chasers so I differentiate by using the model code

Rhys speak to Nav via PM to arrange a veiwing

[inthisglass]

hey mike, ill swap you my car for the chaser

[NA_Goodness]

Yes most JZX100s are auto, but that doesn't mean you can't convert them. A weekend at work on the hoist with a few mates helping me out should fix that problem.

and $$$$ don't forget!

[mitchy_]

vr-4 is turbo, awd, manual, jap, relatively unique, and sub 15k.

I am trying to forget that bit...

[mickey]

I would say Galant VR4's, cheap, rare and can be found in manual.

Soarer's are OK, but more of a luxo coupe so maybe not your style.

Levin BZ-R if you want to save money and fuel but still drive something different (but FWD of course), otherwise old AE86 but getting too old to find a clean example.

leaves you with local S14's
