Chesh Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 At that point were i can insure skyline for £900 a year, its 1996 Gts model 2.5 turbo pretty much standard engine wise, Got bc coilovers and ss exhaust really clean shell sat on rota grid drifts for £4800 Just in to minds to sell starlet for skyline HELP!!!

AdamB Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 Well that depends. Can you afford to run one? Will it be a daily or a weekend toy? They are very juicy to run, but I wouldn't sell my starlet for a GTS tbh, GTR would take some serious thinking. Quote
Chesh Posted September 3, 2013 Author Posted September 3, 2013 It would be toy i have had evo's and scoobys so i no the feeling running big motor, why wouldnt you do it for Gts? Quote
AdamB Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Prefer the body of a GTR with more curves, wider arches, plus the 4wd system, can have either 4wd or rwd with a controller. Extra 100cc, or stroked if you have the money.Everyone has their own opinions though. Edited September 3, 2013 by AdamB Quote
Idrees Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 For a GT-R, yes. Never got a GTS though personally. Quote
jimmymac101 Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 For a gtr anyday without even having to stop and think about it for a gts it would have to be perfect and have loads done to it it's all what you want though James Quote
MARC MOSS Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) That's the reason I sold mine mate...I'm about to get an r32gtr Edited September 3, 2013 by MARC MOSS Quote
Fizturbo Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 Have your fun and am sure ul be back Quote
MARC MOSS Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 Just waiting on Trisk to give me the word then I will be back Quote
DevonGT Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 I went the other way, sold a GTR for a starlet. Quote
Malcolm GT Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 After being out in a gts and gtr no I wouldn't. They are good and sound epic but the cost to run etc isn't worth it I think Quote
Liam_D Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 I personally would. Nothing against starlets but skylines are better in my opinion. Quote
Gainzy Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 I would but only for a R34 buying a gts will only make you want the GTR or R34 I reckon Quote
Liam_D Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 I would but only for a R34 buying a gts will only make you want the GTR or R34 I reckon That depends on the spec of the GTS skyline though my friend has a 560bhp r33 gtst and I would much rather have that than a GTR Quote
JordanEP91 Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 I got followed by a r34, and a mate in the passenger seat put my hazards on, that was it he couldn't of got any closer if he tried, anyway I overtook a car in front and he didn't follow next I saw was him coming past popping some flames, I didn't know what to say anyway he wasn't in front for long he didn't fancy maintaining the speed around the corners ;) (in other words he let me go) haha but I would destroy it when my cars done Quote
yaristurbo Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 its the fuel cost for me, if a had a skyline i would want to drive it everywhere but obv would cost a fortune Quote
pick1 Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 Yes fuck yes skylines for the win I will own one , one day .Don't get me wrong i love my ep but the other two cars I promise myself I will own is well spec'd Evo and. Well spec'd skyline there just awsome Quote
shorty Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Nope. Driven a mates mums r33 gts and in stock form its not all that and then the r33 gtr with 600hp that replaced the gts. That was a weapon! But still wouldnt as running costs and mod costs are far to high. Power to weight is for winners, is why starlets make a great toy! Edited September 9, 2013 by shorty Quote
5e colin Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 na save up a year and get a very big turbo setup for the 4efte and a gym membership card way more fun Quote
RicoW Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Do it!but keep another car as a daily as you will be out of money in 2 weeks of boosting around loltotally worth it mate Quote
daniel_g Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 I would like a slutty RWD R32 as a drifty toy, but i couldn't justify runnig a skyline as a daily. Quote
Beastmode panda Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 Yes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuLNBbM9Iqo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SccjaskA1n8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_r-LDIt6plI Just saying.. Quote
rkane Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 I got offered a GTST for my V. Couldn't run it tho. Quote
