You'd take a fair guess the rail would be stuffed - if so, forget it.

It'll cost more than the purchase price.

I thought you would have learnt after you were scammed 2 months ago. STOP looking for the "cheap deal".

Spend 8-10k, buy a proper car from someone you can see, and one that hasn't been destroyed.

ok man but i want a skyline for $5000 no more as i do not have job and im only 17 years old

[Count Grantleyish]

No job + Skyline = bad idea.

$5k Skyline = another $5k to fix what's already broken and will break in future.

Buying damaged Skyline + fixing it = you'd better off buying one in OK condition for 2-3k more.

My advice, get a job first.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

no

[ARTZ]

what a pile of junk

unless your a panel beater or mechanic of some description your looking at at least 5k to get that thing even looking like a roadworthy vehicle again

If you've only got 5k it would be cheaper to look at 180's,silvia's etc..

but no job no car dude... seriously.. a tank of petrol is about ~$75-80 for 300-400 kms on most skylines, as im guessing your first car will be your daily, depending on how much you use it, could be 1-2 tanks a week...

thought about public transport?

17+turbo+skyline+no job??? sounds like my tax money is going well at centrelink, sounds like bankstown here in syd

but my advice, buy a normal car stock standard, not even a skyline, just some small car, cause i can bet that by the age of 20, any of your cars will have been involved in quite a few accidents.

if that money could buy experience in life, it would be a greater benefit

[Bizkit]

Man I laughed when I read about the no job part. You would need at least another 8k just for repairs, insurance, petrol, maintenance and other fees.

Don't be a dumbass.

[The Bogan]

GET A JOB YA BUM.

[PM-R33]

Question. If you have no job, how the hell do you think you can afford a car? Especially one that has as much upkeep as a damaged R33? Not to mention driving it illegaly?

[Count Grantleyish]

i use 2 have a skyline R33 but sold it because it was auto lol so now want R33 manual turbo and i only go out with the skyline friday to sunday so weekend use only lol

Last time I checked, Police Officers doesn't have weekends off.

[PM-R33]

Reminds me of the young kid that came on the forums wanting to illegal drive a turbocharged Skyline and talking about how he would "Avoid the random breath tests".......yep.

[GTR-N1]

Rule 1) Don't buy other people's problems

Rule 2) Don't buy a car you can't insure

Rule 3) Don't buy a car that you can't on-sell straight away

Rule 4) Accept the advice of those who've learnt from experience

Rule 5) Buy a car you'd be proud to show your new G/F's mother

[WYTSKY]

Rule 5 - My Fiancee's mother has always called my car the "man bag" - because it goes quick, looks nice, but I have no boot and I never have more items in the car other then a laptop or uni bag....

[GTR-N1]

^ ^ ^ and that's because she's got to look up to a person who can stand up to do a pee

Well off you go then - @ $4,000 for that car - it's a bargain.

It's $1,000 under your budget!

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

Again.. Stop being a dumb arse.. if you didnt go looking to buy that too cheap nigerian R33 you wouldnt have been scammed of your first $4k.. do yourself a favour..

I'm starting to think you're a troll

Your right, so lets budget this for the young fella

50$

stamp duty, but make sure you fill the transfer formout to say you only paid 800$ for the car

50$

for a slide hammer a rubber mallet and some sandpaper

100$

bog, you will need quite alot

20$

some white spray paint, 3 or 4 cans should do a proper good job

40$

for a good set of beer goggles so you think you panel beating effort was adequate.

10$

for some new windscreen wiper blades very important.

50$

for a really dodgey roadwaorthy, you may have to share some of your beer with him aswell, and dont be surprised should he ask for sexual favours, just oblige

Thats 320 big ones which leaves you 680 buckeroos, just enough to pay the 12 months rego and get stoned..

Dont worry about insurance thats only for people who crash their cars.

Tooo easy
