Then why even contemplate getting rid of it?

Ive already explained in my previous posts but the fact why it doesnt bother me to get rid of her as much is cause I know Il buy another one in the future. I think of her as the first child, you love her to death but being new to parenting you make certain mistakes. When the second child comes along the mistakes you made with the first are ironed out.

Parenting / GTR owning 101 ;) haha

So you have a car you spent 80k on but nothing else?

She is pretty much the only thing to my name. In the process of doing some property development hence could use the extra money. Can get it from other means (bank etc) however this is another one of the many small things contributing to my decision to sell. I am by no means in a rush to sell, I will get her back on the road and enjoy her but Im not ruling out the possibility of sale in the not too distant future

Sell it.

Buy Getz.

???

Reminisce.

sheeeeeeeeeeeeeit.

So if Im reading this right,you have jumped into buying a expensive car, thrown even more money at it, and now you want to sell it?!

You are only a year younger than me and I seem to make more sense.

Also you should most likely have bought a less expensive gtr, you would have been cheering even if the clutch blew.

I wanted a R34 GTR and wouldnt settle for anything less. Wouldnt necessarely call it jumping into things as it was the car I was always going to own and I have had it for almost 2 years now.

Things change in 2 years, circumstances in life change. Its not impossible for me to keep it, it would just make my life easier if it was gone.

The whole reason I made this thread was to ask for an opinion on available options that would give me the an extra 20-30k in my bank account if i chose to sell the 34 while still having a cheap toy to play with ie 32R/33R/S15 and get some helpful input without your self and your clown mate ta1lor made trying to stir the pot.

Not stirring the pot here, what Im doing is calling your decision rash and that you did not know what you got yourself into.

I think you just wanted the fast furious car, without worrying how much it cost at the time. Now the reality of how much money you've thrown away has caught up to you, and you're having a sook about a clutch!

If you truelly wanted this car, then you would keep it.

Sell it and invest in property. Make some decent money, buy another one later on down the track when they'll be worth 30G. You can either be a 22 year old who only has a car to his name, or you can build on your wealth and have some other assets to your name and comfortably afford one later.

I ain't even mad... nor 22 yet

      Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.

      Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.

      Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
