i wouldnt mind a sky.line at all...anything but they r33, unless it was the gtr.
The r32's and r34 are what represent the sky.line very well. Both gtr and non. I love the r32s and if i had the money i would go out and build a track r32 but im more a silvia fan. The r33 gtst front bars look like sh*t and you cant despoiler them without the boot looking all out of line and fkd.
Its surprising to here of stereotypes in the skyline community. Theres just so many people that have them that you cant call them wogboy cars or gangsta whiteboy cars. I even see old men (40yr olds) driving them with bovs and huge exausts haha talk about mid life crisis

Yeah, who you calling an old man. I turned 40 last year and just fitted the exhaust and have my Haltech Interceptor all ready to get fitted. What, you arent allowed to enjoy driving after 25!

Your exaust system is nice, clean and doesnt look over the top at all.

Wow, $2000 is a lot to pay each year. I mean, my cheapest quote for comp insurance was $6000, but I wouldn't pay that lol.
The only problem is that you'll pay $25000 - $30000 for a Monaro now, to have it be worth $15000 in a few years time... that's a lot of money to a 23 year old!

Lol $6000? Lemme guess.. NRMA?
I got quote $8k 3 years ago for my FTO, I learnt never to call NRMA for imports.
Best price I've been given is like $2600 for comp, with $1900 access even though I live in the safest possible neighbourhood (well pretty safe).

Yeah 2k sounds like a lot, then it paid for itself when I smashed it up Falls Creek and it would have cost 8600 to repair if I didn't have insurance.

See, thats one of the advantages of being a geriatric. I pay about 900 for 20K comprehensive insurance on mine.

That's what i mean.
An FTO could beat a GTST if the GTST was sh*t and the FTO was good.
Then again, if the GTST was good and lighttuned and the FTO was like olly's or something..
I like 'lines too.
Strictly R34's Though.

Well it's not gonna be moving anywhere with that wheel clamp on it now hahaha.
As for skylines, i like 'em all. =) The v35 i own attracts a lot of attention...good and bad i guess. I've even had some stranger stop and take photos of it as i was walking back to it. Having factory pearlescent white paint and hundred dollar wax helps too though lol!
Well ok, DR30 is kinda not good looking lol.

Read my post again.
I mean if the FTO was like Olly's, the GTST would decimate it.
Those dumb ass rims must weigh 50kg each
