just a personal thing..

I dont think this is such a good thread.

For the fact their are skyline theives everywhere, they could be reading this trying to find a certain skyline in their area to rip off. Now they can see how much the one they want to steal its worth and what mods it has.

Im so cautious these days. :D

You didnt consider removing certain parts and selling them to try make up the big short fall???

Couldn't be stuffed - I did do the sums and there was stuff all in it by the time you add labout and buying bits that I didn't have etc.

My old r33 gtst. It came with a bleed valve and king low springs.

Apart from maintenance like oil changes, plugs, brakes etc.

$500 mechanical diff

$2k semi slicks and spare wheels

They go nice though :D

Ahh, the oh so wise one:)

Mods to the car thinking you are already a sh1t hot driver...thousands.

Getting blown away by Duncan in the stocko GTST...priceless !!!

But it stopped me from sinking money into my car when Duncan started out 7 seconds a lap quicker then me with rubber being the only mod i didnt already have:(

Power Fc : $1100

Dump pipe $400

3 inch Cat $150

Air box $ 200

FMIC $1100

Actuator $200

Z32 $250

GTR Pump $170

HKS Turbo $1200

Tunes $500 (note this is plural)

Theres at least $5k there on engine mods to get it running mid 12's , not bad when you think of it that way. What else can beat it for the money?

yeah but dude it'd be hard for potential thieves to track down the cars as no1 has posted up pics of there cars, and if people do the number plates are blurred out etc, so unless you actually knew the people that were on here posting it'd be hard to find what car is theres to steal it. ;)

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
