[T0nyGTSt]

OMG!

A/S/L?

I'm in love...

"R34 wheels have been removed and the vehicle is being sold with the P1 Racing wheels pictured"

Translation:

$3,000 OEM wheels will be replaced with $5,000+ Buddy Clubs!

[R31Nismoid]

A/S/L ???

GOD!!!!

if it was December i'd have $50,000 under my belt and that would be in my driveway AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HSVKLR]

Man i was just waiting on the pics to load while i read your thread...

That thing is da BOM!!

Bring on 2004 i say... i just cant go 7mths without a car......

[kabab]

god dam thats hot..

I got a bad feeling i'm about to get another loan

[R31Nismoid]

yeah, in December (if there are anymore left)

i'll have two rare cars... GTS-R and GTR

i don't care. a 20,000 GTR (as long as it's had an engine freshen) is something you can't go past

[adam 32]

haha enjoy the repair bills on that car

itll cost you more than 20K in the first year to rebuild the engine and turbo. you honestly think a 15 year old GTR hasnt had the thrashing of a lifetime? yeh theyre good engines, but not that good

[T0nyGTSt]

Well RB26DETT motors are like what? $6-7-8,000?

These cars are expensive but you'll be more inclined to trust the above with the newer R34 internals.

[adam 32]

i know these cars are cheap, but its painful to see people praise them so much. the running costs will outweigh the initial price eventually, and thats when you start to realise that a 15+ year old performance car isnt such a good idea

theres also talk to the law being changed to 20 years so be careful you dont buy the car and then get it stuck in japan for another 5 years!

[R31Nismoid]

true.

but hence i'd be after one with some engine rebuilding done to it.

Same as my 31 GTS-R. it's got a 96 onwards RB25DET in it and so is evferything else.

15yr old car... 6-7 years old parts

[RadiuM]

remember it cant be imported until next year for road use and has to be stored in Japan until then.

also heard rumors that they could be changing the 15year rule to 20. then your F.UCKED!

20 years would be just to be to stop cars like that from getting into p-platers hands, pure and simple

With people supposedly paying for them now (?? has anybody done that yet).. i doubt they'd do that under them 'cause imagine the outcry. They'd at least one batch get through

itll cost you more than 20K in the first year to rebuild the engine and turbo.

more than 20k to rebuild the engine and turbo?!! you can rebuild a porche engine for less than that.. i don't think so.. 10k i'd believe, 20k noway.

[kabab]

That car has just been rebuilt and look at the parts list its been done properly..

[Blitz]

If you purchased a 15+ year old car via someone like Prestige Motorsport I cannot see them turning round after purchase and saying sorry the rules have changed, bad luck.

If there was an possibility of such a change no doubt Geoff and prestige would clearly advise of it. And even in worst case scenario, if you did buy a car and the ruling did change, the importer would have to refund you the full amount as the conditions of sale had not been met.

[Guest RedLineGTR]

that gtr is sex on wheels, and the engine is pretty much new only 20k since overhaul

[Hiroshima Screamer]

i dont know id be suss about that car seems to good to be ligit

[Lozza150]

he he he

Duff man..... Ohh Yeahh!!!!

[adam 32]

just cos its been rebuilt recently whos to say it aint damaged? thats complete crap... maybe it reduces the chances of it being wrecked but it only takes 1 dyno run, or 1 1/4 mile to screw and engine.

10K to rbuild an RB26DETT and 2 x turbos. youd be doing it either in your backyard or with a shitty parts list

[SS8_Gohan]

i'm 19, had my P's for a full year and 1 month... with the money i've saved towards an R34 GT-T i could buy that GTR right now.... and it's O so tempting... but really, that car is off it's tits and i just wouldn't trust myself in it. But i can so relate to P platers wanting to get in one.

I wish i was more.... well.... irresponsible, cos i'd really like to buy that car

EDIT: anyone wanna have a guess, or an idea of what sort of power that car has. Stock GTR's are about 260kw at the fly??? I really don't know... just guessing...
