Been keeping up on this thread with much interest. In much same position as you at the moment except you can actually drift and i cant!! Just trying to build a good track and drift car on a budget is hard work but enjoyable.

really?

i am still torn between having this back or keeping the skyline.......

I'd want to finish a few more jobs on it and drift lydd and teeside in it first, but i have actually been toying with selling once these jobs are done

Take the skyline along to one of the dwyb days at santa pod and i bet you won't want to sell it then.

lol yep, having owned a gtst and gtr in the past i must admit i didn't have any more fun in them than this :P
Just they were stupidly more expensive to look after.

thing is, how far are you from the price of a half decent S13?

its hard to know when to stop.

keep at it though fella.

nice to keep her on here and have something different on the scene :thumb:

There is a cunning plan though, i buy cheap, good imported or used parts that don't lose any value through a little use.

Then depending upon what stage the car reaches i'd either break it, or sell as a whole at a slighly bigger loss (depends how lazy i fell lol).

Big bonus is with it running the 4age there's a huge aftermarket, makrket for engine bits
