Hahah best.quote.edit.ever!

Stoppped by Japlink today to get my 33 looked at, they mentioned how hard it is to sell those things now though surely you got 15k for yours Zebra? not 1.5k like your post implies..the guys at Edward lees offered me 6k for mine but would prefer it without all the mods..guess i will be returning it to stock if i ever get around to trading up. Anyway Japlink told me that if i am prepared to jump up to the 34 (so want!) then i better be ready for servicing and mod costs that triple or more those of the GT-St....

oh well..in for a penny..

[zebra]

Nope 1500 bucks. After many attempts to sell at like 5 or 6 k and not even a look (this was when there were still worth over 10k)

Lol at terry btw

6k is good money for a stockish 33 these days. I wouldn't pay anymore for one

I laff at guys trying to sell gtst skylines for 15k and wonder why no one comes to look at them

It's kinda sad that vn v8 commodores are worth more these days

[bored33]

after driving fappy's 34 today i want it

Hahaha I'm glad you enjoyed

[evil_weevil]

what do u wantr the 34 for?

Id love one as a weekend car - but not to track. if I were to track then an EMO all the way.

[mickey]

I love my GTR...it makes me smile just looking at it in the garage

If you're going to track it or mod the crap out of it I'd say go for an R33 and save the money for mods.

I haven't modded my GTR and probably never will and I think that's the way I want it now because it is just enjoyable for me to drive it on normal roads. In saying that it does attract a lot of attention...

haha jealous!!

[bored33]

There is always next Texi

[Ruxis]

Yeah was looking last night and I think if I do upgrade it'll be an evo. Could probably get a decent one for 30k.

Or possibley an rx7 02 model could get one of those for around 25-30 too.

Maybe I can build a gtr when there a classic haha.

RX7 - factor in rebuilds every year

Evo 6.5 makkinen edition. Nothing beats it!

Yeah but rebuilding an RX7 is 1k... Not 10k... Lol

You won't buy a GT-R based on logic/sense, you will buy it based purely on emotions/desire.

You know you bought the right car when you park it and look back, or walk into your garage and look at it.

This happened to me two weeks after I bought my R32 GT-R. Haven't looked back since. I'll try everything to keep it.

If I sell it, next car will be R34 GT-R.

It's not worth selling a 32 GTR... Just save a touch longer and buy a 34 and have both... Win win...

Every year?? I thought it was every 100,000 kns??

[zebra]

They aren't that bad. Mine had 230000ks but wasnt turbo

But wind em up and they break a lot but are cheap to build compared to a 26

RX7 + apex seal = rebuild

common joke.

[tweety bird]

but a seal + bearing kit for a 13b is under $1000, then you just need 1/4 of a brain to put it together.

will see how i go when i get my rotary.

Boost in -> apex seals out

Ditto this sentement

If your real lucky then you might find a woman that makes you feel the same way too
