Skyline Costs

[R33silverS2]

Yeah i can afford skyline, what is the insurance like for skyline under 25 age..

I want to buy a skyline rr33 s2 1996 model, only thing i am worried about is about skyline parts available.

Car is 10 years old, companies probalby stopped making parts for this model?

can some one verfiy, i am so paranoid about parts lol

what is the value price for r33? i am willing to pay 13k the most.

Good luck with a series 2 for under 13k sounds like it would be.... err... trouble free yeh thats it.

You'd be better off looking at a good nic r32 if thats all your willing to pay. I'd like a 33gtr but only wanna pay 22k for it... reckon it'll be sweet...

So you have $13k to spend - but you're looking at buying a new model WRX?

i dont understand the difference between gts25t n gts-t or something like that for r33 s2 96 model?

can anyone explain the meaning of, whats the difference between these two models

yes, skylines are a lot of work

yes, they are good cars

no, they are not sports cars (GTR perhaps)

yes, they use a lot of 98RON fuel

yes, buy a new WRX... it is a better car to own

[Primordial]

no, they are not sports cars (GTR perhaps)

A 2-door coupe that out of the factory does 0-100 in 6.x seconds and covers the 1/4 mile in just over 14 sec is not a 'sports car'??

do you consider the monaro a sports car?

From: http://www.answers.com/topic/sports-car

"A sports car is an automobile designed for performance driving. Most sports cars are rear-wheel drive, have two seats, two doors, and are designed for precise handling, acceleration, and aesthetics. A sports car's dominant considerations are: superior road handling, braking, manoeuvrability, low weight, and high power, rather than passenger space, comfort, and fuel economy."

A monaro certainly doesnt have 'low weight' so NO i dont classify a monaro as a sports car!

They are the same thing. All gts-t's are gts25t's the 25 just stands for 2.5 litre engine displacement. GTST is just the short form, as its easier to say than ' i have a gts twenty five t '. Which i believe if im not mistaken stands for grand touring sports turbo, therefore no real need to say the 25, as mosty people will understand that it is a 2.5lt.
