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?

    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
