Hi, a few of you would have seen my threads about buying a skyline. This is my situation i just got accepted into tafe at homesglen chadstone ( if anyone from here goes there PM me). For over 3 months i have been searching for a skyline at one stage it was a black 93 then a white 93 then a gunmetal 93, this is going on for over 3 months now. After all of it i decided that i want a white one. If to say i buy my 32 for around 12k i have to add my insurance and that will be close to 3k, my insurance will be as much as your average p plater car. I am thinking of getting a car for around 3-4k then i'll go for fire and theft for my insurance. When I look at it this way i can keep the money i have now for a 33 or somthing in the future and my insurance will be less and i will have a quicker car and all the power to weight bullshit wont apply to me. What are your thoughts?

if you are on restrictions than definately dont get anything your not legally allowed to drive, it will be headaches if you get caught.

Yes to buying a cheap car and saving as much as you can for a better one down the track when it would be more feasible to get one. bloody skylines.... money pit!

100 kw corrolla.Or get a rolla with a NA 20v 4agze.with pod,put a nice wide cold air induction up to it.extractors and exhaust and HD clutch.make sure the box isnt slushy and the cv's arnt clunkey.Do a u turn on full lock turning both sides if it has a clunk/clicking noise,then the cv's need replacing ie:more money.and a fully sic system FTW...

Had a swift gti.Done that.If youve owned somthing like a datto or gemini 4cyl.Then you will appreciate the swifts power all of 63kw.Their not power steer tho.and their cv's,like most if not all 4cyl fwd cars of that era,are up to shit inc stock clutch etc...Word of warning.dont dump it everywhere you go.those little gearboxes aint cheap.4.5 yrs ago i paid $900 for a reco box and $250 for a hd clutch not installed.

    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A  
    • Piggaz had one and broke it at 470kw
