I don't have one yet but my dad doesn't mind and my mum is clueless about cars and hopefully things stay that way.

Having said that I would still get one if my parents were against it. :thumbsup::ermm:

Rhys, tell your mum you need a turbo to attract a member of the opposite gender so you can provide said grandkids :(

I totally agree. U need to the turbo to get the girls. All depends on what type of girls u want to attract!

Anyway, how old r u? Maybe a bit young to have kids? Im 24 and i think im way too young and imature to have kids.

I'm going on 34 so I did'nt exactly need my parents approval but some sort of positive note from them kind of made me feel better.

Myself: "Some Skylines are turbos"

My Dad: "You dont need a turbo in a car that small"

Once my R33 is bought my Dad has fun outrunning speeding b double trucks on the way home from Adelaide so I got my positive note eventually :P

I'm 18, but I still live at home. Therefore my parents can kick the car out of the garage (they're threatened that) and I HATE parking it outside, no matter where it is!

hmm. think you'll need more than a hand :D

BAHAHAHA!!! Good point Eric.

Karl... I'm going to have about $500 in my account soon. $1200 painting the new kit, $800 on tyres, $2500 on insurance... My account is drained :D Gonna stop (hopefully) spending money on my car, and put it up for sale when I have $5k. Then with the money I get from the sale, I'll be able to afford a GTS-t! And all the shit that comes with it :banana:

Anyone want to buy my R33 GTS for $160k so I can afford an R35??? Come on, you know you want to!

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
