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?

    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
