Over the Xmas break we started doing some renovation work on the house and as people had told me: once you start fixing up one thnig the other bits look like crap and you just need to keep going :)

So I'm starting to think about selling the M35 to a: free up some cash (buy a crappy run around for half the price) b: save some money on petrol.

The other option could be to start riding the push bike to work I guess but I recently moved jobs and it's a lot further away. I guess the other thing is if I keep the Stag I'll be so tempted to just keep spending moneyey on it, I mean there's a nice grill going on IM at the moment, and that spoiler, and the........... you get the idea.

I don't want to sell it but it's feeling like the right move.... thoughts

If you can get a halfway decent price sell it and get a Toyota Corolla or something. In a few years when you have stopped spending money on the house you can use the equity in the house to get yourself a nice M35 again!

Shame you have to sell up mate, always a bad thing :P Just sold one of my project cars for a washing machine and other household items :D

You woulden't be interested in selling the aero front bar would you?

Not wedded to it going with the car, so can entertain offers. Will just knock a bit off the car price. PM with an offer if you like. Happy to start the discussion and I'll tell you I would just cost recover on it as I don't care about making a profit. Shoot me a PM if you like.

Ouch why don't you just kick me in the nuts! While I appreciate the super reliability of Toyotas offerings and like some of their cars a lot; Corollas and Camrys in stock form are for people who don't like cars. Boring, boring, super boring, A to B transport. If a cardboard box was safe enough, had wheels and was light on the juice there'd be a Camry driver in it. :P

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
