For waaaaay less than half the price (and heaps less insurance, parts/damage issues etc.) I know what I would choose .... again :rolleyes:

'Just wait till you drift it' and you'll just how much fun even a lowly 160-odd rwkw S15 gets you! And a 13.33 second pass in full street trim is nothing to be sneezed at either!

Of course if money is no issue then there is absolutely NO comparison!

yup..the weight really holds the Skylines back (except of course the GTRs). It all comes down to how much you really want to spend on the initital car and how much you want to sink into the mods for it. Come up with a budget of what you can spend on each and your answer will reveal itself grasshopper :(

And knowing you sam - you'll want all the flashy stuff like a $5k stereo system, $5k mags, $3k body kit :) and thats before you even get around to modding up the engine. So you gotta consider all that too.

hijoin model 5 copies. look sweet and are 1680 new from uniqueautosports. they also have second hand ones now for 1600 with tyres.

think of what you can do to an s15 with the 40-odd grand that you save!

I'm talking deep dish chromies or something totally over the top - this is Sameer we're talking about :( not your sedate copies or 2nd hand rims.

You know these sorts:

Dronell Lightweight Forged

18 x 8.5 (Front) 18 x 9.5 (Rear)

19 Inch Also Available

$4200 with new tyres

or like the 5 Zigen 5ZR - $980 per rim

hehe, yes Gordo, VMS said they could get me used 18s with tires around the 2k mark, cf hood I can get for under a grand and the wing...welll Ill prolly source one from jah pan

haha yer Im with lethal on this **** skylines Im getting a vee dub!!(not)

Maaaaaaaaaaaannnnn this is one of the toughest decisions Ive ever had to make, right now Id rather be the doctor in ER who has to decide whether to turn of some poor shmucks life support or not....thing is my mom will never stop bitching at me and my dad if he gets me a 34.....but hopefully I can find a good one at a nice price...then all will be sweet

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
