current car: 1997 180sx type x

next car: another GTR, S2000 or perhaps a mazda FD3S

quick why?: i switched from a GTR to sil cause i like dorifto. but i miss the RB26 and 4wd grip sometimes. so may want to go to another BNR32 or BNR34

or perhaps a S2000 as i like the lightweight high reving engine.. good mix

then maybe a rotor..??

or a MX5...

i buy cars for fun rather than commuting

My last car was a 98 MX5. i'm currently in the market for somehing new, and am torn between an Evo 6 and R32 GTR.

Yesterday I was dead set on the GTR, today I saw an EVO and changed my mind, tomorrow it'll probably change again.

Decisions decisions!

I'm waiting till I get behind the wheel of both of them before I make any decisions, but what you guys think?

I'm awaiting a totally unbiased answer of course :)

R33 GTST to be replaced by 996 911 S. Probably a year or two away. That said the BMW 335i has caught my attention of late especially in it's performance during the Bathurst 24 hr.

My charade 1 ltr is to hopefully be replaced by a Renault Clio Sport.

I'll finally be happy with my garage (I hope).

Current Cars: Nissan 180SX ('92 model), Nissan Pulsar N15 Sedan.

Next Car: Well the 180sx is a long term keeper, so the Pulsar will go first. I think maybe a crewcab ute would be good. I need something that can carry four adults in relative comfort. Would be good to have a tow-car too, and something to carry spares around, so the ute would be ideal for me.

The next car that I upgrade will probably be my daily driver from a 1991 Peugeot 205 GTI to a boring 5 door VW Golf Mk V TD. I'll keep the R32 GTR for a while yet until an R34 GTR M-Spec Nur comes along or I can afford the new GTR.

  • 1 year later...

Current cars

08 Prado turbo diesel- Maybe Replace 09 [new shape] or keep and spend money on mods for gtr!

R34 Gtr- Keeping for 3 more years hopefully afford to modify more- replace late 2011 with R35

Thats if things go to plan and the economy doesnt get completely screwed!!! :thanks:

Edited by Duncan1

Fuel embargos not considered, I'd like to keep the R34 and then add...

i) a replacement R33 GTR for the one I sold 5 years ago and

ii) an R32 GTR (from Oz)

Yes, am a bit sentimental, but I figure that now I'm used to the confined space in the 4th Gen Prelude,

... I'll find the R32 quite spacious by comparison lolz.

Tez :thanks: ...the 3 GTRs will look nice together

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
