I saw the yellow one there last week. I had a good look as I have the red one too . It is steel and has a longer low profile body but the minimum height is a little higher, maybe 10-15mm. It also weighs a fair bit more.

Buy on rumour sell on news rings true for today.

Could see a rise during the day, but looking like a dusty open lower than Friday's close. Announcement is very positive but obviously isn't meeting or exceeding hype...for now.

Thank f**k my order didn't go through on Friday to buy back in.

M8 wut r u doin

$8k on supercharger and brakes one week, motoX the next, now car sales.

Just get a civic, put a stock exhaust on it and move on already[emoji14]

Inb4 GS worth $65k in next 2 years.

Birds you sold out man. Where's the faith. Icewine1 results due October. Heard they put a 2mil cap on today so probably slow n steady gains this week.

My faith is in my luck, the market to do irrational and stupid things, and my ability to make money off that

Also switching between modding a car and selling it makes perfect sense; it's boredom with the vehicle and methods of absolution from that boredom

Yeah it's more, do I spent 8k on it now and make it insane, but that will force myself to keep it longer (But funner) 

Or get rid of it, add 10k onto something newer (eyeing off an 15' STI) slower on the street sure.. but few years newer and something different. I've always been one of those guys that get bored, buying and selling shit all the time.. motorbikes are better for this loose less $ :)

Had her for 5 years now, much longer than some all evo owners, only got 53,000 on the clock though.. I must barely drive!

yeah thats fair enough i guess. I dont really like the idea of spending more than $20k on a car i'd then want to drop heaps of money to try and make better, when I can achieve similar things with a bigger mod budget on a cheaper car.

LOL here comes the last VWL evo owner ready to pass on the torch (alvin doesnt count no more)

88e drops 1c, manageable.

What entry point you looking at for 88e

No set point, I think it's too volatile to buy in right now; I'm terrified of London's inevitable correction and us see-sawing down off it. Might buy in tomorrow if we see a little recovery. I'd rather lose a little potential for profit and buy in when we start to recover than lose a lot of money.

Right now 4.7-4.8 seems to be the floor for the day and could be a good entry for short term profits if we recover tomorrow, or even long term as we might not see these prices again for a long time. Buy when people are selling as they say. Too risky for me though. I've already got rewards so don't need to take the risk.

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
