There is a market, but I'd be worried it will die soon.

R35 GTR price keeps dropping and 34R's are only getting older.

Spend $60k and own it for 2 years as a weekender, drive it a handful of times and all it for $30k does not sound appealing to me. I might buy one after the drop.

yeah that is true 35s are under 100k but I think they are a different proposition got very high maintenance costs .. Not that a 34 won't cost money but the 35s got a lot of stuff that can go wrong and cost big $$$

Eh maybe I'll try find a 180sx to trash around a track in lol

Fark that would be a fun car

And Narva headlights on the front :thumbsup:

I'm a fanboy of these:

But getting rarer and rarer to find. Would probably do a half assed restoration. Bolt on flares, big wheels, efi V8. All the oldies would be disgusted

Is cool, needs more Renault less Sunbeam doe :P

4K, pointless at this stage
3D, pointless since they were launched like 5 years back
65"... unless you've got a big room, the 480p/720p/1080p content you'll be playing on it will not be as sharp as it should be.

Would still bang, but not for that price

For the difference in price, I'd be going for this... then upgrading in a few years to a good TV once 4K porn is actually available

Yep.. and with aussie internet speeds the way they are going to be a long time before 4k is viable (depends on area I guess)

Our free to air only just got 1080i on a few channels heh.

Only reason you'd get a 4k TV is if you had a massive collection of stored 4k blurays or something

    • Middle seat good for a slab of beer or Esky for a road trip. 2x kids, means 1x free seat lol.
    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.
