Hyundai Excel!

You'll have spare for insurance etc if you get that. Cheap to run and quite reliable too. I've got 3 uni friends that got them and not much problem selling too (they probably made a loss of 100-300 after using it for 2yrs).

corolla ftw..

my cousin bought one for 1500 bucks about 10 months ago, runs to redline all day everyday, he's crashed it twice and it still goes fine.. cheap as chips to run.

edit just saw your budget is 6k..

go for a ae101 toyota levin.. 120kw's, 180torques.. will redline to 8400rpm all day everyday...

excel... cheap, easy, about a million of them to choose from, pretty user friendly, easy to fix if broken, did i mention cheap...

also, something no one has pointed out yet... when you buy and excel you will be even more motivated to save faster to get the R34 cause you will be embarrassed...

Thanks for the suggestions guys, really dont want an excel though.

My concern with the excel is that I will f**king die if i have a crash.

Just found out that i can pay an extra $1000.00 to insure my mums Audi TT with Just Car which means ill be able to drive it until I get the GTR.

Think thats the way ill go. All its gonna cost me is a $1,000 (cause ill only need 1 year to save the money) + fuel

    • My plan is to go the pink option. But still add the 4th fitting near the oil cap and just cap it off for now.  That way I can add 2 extra to the sump and have 4 dedicated breathers/drains if I ever remove the sump for any reason. 
    • Oh, yeah, look - here's the thing. You always replace the tensioner when you're going in there to replace a belt....under normal circumstances. You want to make sure it is good and safe, and that you don't create a reason to take the front of the bloody motor apart again. But in this case, OP is replacing a belt that has aged out on time, not usage. The belt is a million miles away from aging out on usage. The belt gets a time "limit" merely because it is made of rubber and can degrade naturally. The tensioner? Not so much. I reckon it could last forever on the current usage pattern. So I reckon if the thing is going to continue to get used at the same rate, replacing the tensioner is somewhat gratuitous. Would I replace it if I was doing it on my car right now? Hell yes. Because my car does 10-20 thousand kays a year. So it's all going to be the same thrashedness. Would I YOLO it on OP's car. More than likely.
    • I dunno. I think any one of those from each side to sump is probably enough. Remember - this is about creating a path for gas flow up from the sump to the cam covers. That gas flow then has to leave via the lines to the catch can. There's probably little point in providing 100% more capacity from sump up to covers cf. what you have from there to the catch can. Put in the 3 convenient ones? Any which way that you see fit. That'd be my thoughts.
    • Getting holes drilled into to cam covers and AN10 fitting welded on. My sump has 2x AN10 fittings on it already. These are the options I have come up with that can be done without needing to remove the sump to add more fittings. In all options front of passenger side cover connects to VCT head drain bung (i know this isn't the best spot but my feeling is it must do something). Option 1 (pink). The back of each cam covers gets its own line to sump. Option 2 (blue). The back of each cam covers are linked and share a line to sump. The front of drivers side gets its own line. Option 3 (Black). Drivers side are Tee'd together and share a line to the sump. Passenger side rear gets its one line to the sump.
    • I'd be surprised if Nissan doesn't mention it in the manual as it seems unlikely that a tensioner is going to last 200,000km.
