haha.. tell me about it!.. why you think every day i look at my car i'm just thinking of giving up the ghost and going straight for the big stuff.

R32 GTR are pretty much the same price. Even under SEVS i could get a nice 92 or so R32 GTR for around $22k, probably what mine would be worth. Thats of course if you like the R32.. many don't

No plates for 32 gtr's under sevs yet that im aware of...

I think the 32's look tough...

Its a skyline thing to have GTR thoughts every month or two, lol

definitely :D my thoughts have been continuing to the one point for several months now. As long as I can get $22k for my R33 its a done deal.

yeah, i'm becoming a bit more of a fan of the R32 GTR. Not so many around (up here), can look neato, and go hard of course. The only concern would be the mechanicals at that age.

True that...

What do you think id get for my car once its all painted???

yer.. plates for the R32 GTR are a while off.. but they will come.

Soon there will be no option anyhow once the 15 year bites it .. i predict about 3 months. Although somebody said "no big changes are done in an election year" which could be true.

If so i have a few months to keep thinking.

hmm.. no idea! What mods do you have again?

Mine i'm *hoping* because of the mods, and in the end the full kit about $22k. The paintjob though is starting to get a bit rougher...and the km will turn off some i think.

i can of course fix that for $300 or so :D

Yeah, 15 year rule is goooonnnneeeeee

I dunno, I was thinking of leasing a 33 gtr a few days back... bank said it was fine, until they found out it was more than 6 years old...

i'm getting to the point where i'm just thinking **** it, if idiots are going to be obsessed by km, when mine has done 100,000km or so and is probably *fairly* close to that.. and some that says "60,000km" but there is no way in hell its done that little.. i might be paying a visit to the wreckers for a certain part.

LMFAO!! You rebel!!

Id be happy with $20k for my car....

banks are shit aren't they :D only want you to get new stuff so they can repossess or sell it if the time comes.

In my old job, they probably would have given me enough for a $70,000 R34 GTR, as it was under the 5 years or whatever, yet i had to get a personal loan for the R33 as it was "too old" to be eligible as a car loan :D

yeah i'd reckon $20k for yours would be fair.. hard to tell of course. When you look at a car looking a bit hacked (yours with the unpainted from bar.. or mine with the multicolouredness) people always go "erk, what a load of crap".. but soon as its painted its a whole different car.

When i went from old split, undercoated patches, half sanded back GTR bar, and dented panel to *bling* again my whole perception, and others of my car changed. So hope that is the case when fixed.

Yeap...

Its kinda lame...

I was going to lease a 34gtr through my old company at the end of last year... was still going to cost 15k a year in payments so i thought better of that... lol

Yeah its so true... perception is reality...

Once both are painted the will be very very nice looking...

Hey MJ :wavey:

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
