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 just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
