err look again Rhys, he's not agreeing with you,
I think you may have meant "you can't disagree with me"

err look again sled, if you read it correctly i was pointing out the fact that he cant agree nor disagree because he made no reference to my post what so ever.....

so hence the line: you cant agree with me because you made no reference what so ever to my post.

but yeh, if singling out members use of English is more important than the threads discussion, great mod work

James, I've told you what Weazy and I's impressions of the white R32 were but I won't air them out on here. Just incase someone knows the person. But for a car that would be streeted you wouldn't last very long. Straight cut box, triple plate clutch and HKS GTS-S make Regency your second home.

well i called regency about the straight cut gearbox for my car (GTIR) and they said they dont care about them.. maybe the other two.. not my problem im not getting it off defect .. well not this time

id grab the n1, mod it to my tastes, and keep the stocker components so it can go back to original at some stage

any gtr in my hands would be completely mod'd anyway

Owning an N1 is a blessing and a curse - on the one hand it's built for track work, but the reality is that they're definitely also appreciating assets. For reference's sake, I've bumped the insurance on mine by $30K since I bought it, purely based on the offers that have floated in from time to time, and that's just from Australia, I'm sure if I put some feelers out in Japan I could send it back and do pretty nicely out of it. (I'm not though, don't stress!)

Finding a 32 N1 that hasn't been tracked and is in excellent nick, is like running into the Loch Ness monster whilst out for a swim. You could probably count on two hands the N1s that have aircon fitted from the factory too.

If it was going in my shed, I'd put it back to stock and take it out on weekends every now and then for a fang through the hills, same as I do with my 34 now. My own N1 won't be seeing a track any time soon, the potential for disaster is too great, that's why I bought the Evo 8. But I don't keep it in a cocoon either - cars are meant to be driven, if I worried about what other drivers might do, I'd never drive any car.

James it really depends on what you want out of a car - if you want a daily and track weapon, don't buy the N1. If you want a weekender that will almost definitely be an appreciating asset (let's face it, that's pretty rare scenario in cars!), then the N1 is the way to go.

Edit: Just read Pete's comment lol - great minds...

Yeah i think after talking to the guys at Extreme Horsepower over the weekend, followed by some serious thinking sunday night, I think my best bet at the moment would be either the black or white one. Simply based on the fact that i would like a car i can take anywhere, and with the N1 i would be petrified to leave it unattended anywhere. I am keeping my eyes open for the perfect car at the perfect price that will fit with what i intend to do.

Thanks heaps guys for your input, it made me asses more of what im after from a GTR.

JMW · November 2, 2009

Nah Damo, the Maxima idea has well and truly gone

astrotristan · November 2, 2009

300kw gtr - i would be too tempted seeing it in the garage, and would want to put some work and money into the stock n1 and track it, henceforth ruining it
