As the title says, what car would you have if you had your 20 - $25,000 back that you bought your nissan skyline or other nissan turbo for, what would you get now? (if skylines where out of the question)

Just wondering what all the die hard skyline fans would get if they couldnt get a skyline / or now that you have had a skyline, you might be unimpressed with it or "over it" what would you get?

I have had 3 skylines now and iam starting to think iam all skyline'ed out. Looking for other options.

I'm stuck under these P plater laws which pretty much prevent me from driving a turbo skyline and I've chosen to drive a KE70 corolla.

If I wasn't stuck under any turbo rule (and had money), I would definitely be driving a MKIV Supra.

yer seen a few mx5s that look nice cheap to! I am thinkin somethign european could be nice but if i go more luxo and get an automatic i would get really bored though. The supra tt would be nice but could be a handful.

well if i had NEVER had a skyline, i probably would have gone down the supra path and would be driving a late model TT supra

but i drive a V35 now, saying i had not gotten this, i was also looking at older merc CLK320's and maybe a an older BMW 330ci

either way i would not be as happy with my choice of car as i am with the V35!

Mx5's are known to be a girl-ish car, but they can look tough...

:P

would love an ae86 as well. I like the mx5 for the weight and the older rwd ones seen a few with 13b turbos in and at lik 990kgs they fly haha.

    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
    • With ordering the belt, you're doing water pump and the idler and tensioner at the same time too yes?
    • This is just a dumb way of keeping the wastegate closed to make more boost. Undo it and either follow the factory setup or redo it properly. Manual boost controllers just use a spring preload to determine when to close in response to boost pressure so it no longer vents to atmosphere.
