Your parents house? Sell your own damn assets

What assets? If i had my own assets why would i sell theirs. Plus we are going to get 2 homes and a monster car out of this sale, so its not really a loss as i see it. We might even make some money considering 2 homes go up in price faster than 1 home. The other option was to buy 2 homes, we all live in 1 and rent out the other.

Big difference between a unit and a house when your talking appreciation of an asset. But regardless of that who the hell would honestly expect such a rediculas amount from their parents? Selling THEIR home so you can get GTR is the most selfish and rediculas thing iver heard in a long time. Not to mention that a GTR isnt exactly a wise invesment of 60k. Tell me what do you do for money? Have you thought about the possibility of achieving these goals on your own two feet?

I know, but my dad wants it too, he loves cars just as much as i do, and i was just brining it up to see what reaction i would get, and i got a positive one, so im not exactly selfish, im not nagging or pointing a gun to their heads, if they had of said no i would have accepted their response. I work as a computer technician and run a business with my cousin. I can achieve my goals on my own two feet, but not as quickly as i hope lol.

Well youd appreciate it alot more if you got their yourself. But hey thats my 2c if your olds want to do that for you thats their decision... Though you better look after them in the future! Because they deffinately will deserve it.

We havent done anything yet, but its an idea. I know i will enjoy it more if i earned it myself so i might just wait since i already have a skyline (which i worked hard for :O) that can keep me entertained for the time being. Thanks for all your replys fellas :D

mate,

hire a hit man to bump the olds off. inherit the house and refinance to buy GTR and pay for hitman. easy. then you can have your cake and eat it. if your not squeamish you could even do it yourself and save a few bucks.

Of course if you do this then yes, you are definately crazy.

if they own the house, borrow against it to buy the car. banks can't give away enough money at the moment. but the smart thing to do would be to work hard and save for at least half of it. just remember the purchase price of a GTR is just the beginning. do date i could have brought another 2 GTR's with what i've spent on modding my 1 GTR

Kill? you're crazy for even mentioning that.

Anything that leads to debt and owing money to a bank is a no no.

Yes i know modding a GTR is an expensive task, which is why im not going to. Just incase i do decide to get a little crazy, what would the price tag be on a top secret fully built GTR? close to 150k?

    • You're already well into "gearbox is a consumable" territory there. A billet plate will either make it (effectively) 1% stronbger or make it last one more pass. At some point you'll probably tear 3rd gear into small chunks and regret all the life decisions that came before it.
    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
