latest toy :)

The s15 is now in Slough outside london. I delivered it in person last saturday all way from NI, ferry over to stranraer then drive it all way down through scotland and england. Flew home first flight out of stanstead on sunday morning.

The s15 was lovely. But when offered a fantastic cash price making money on the car i couldnt say no. This is less than half the value of the s15 so less tied up, yet still a bit of craic
 
yeh 3rd. Had one spec I which got stolen and recovered then another spec II then this spec II

No, i never bought a gtr. I was offered a very nice one last week but i seen it advertised for a long time and it genuinely is a good car but it just was not selling. So i didnt take it on, on that basis. No one is buying them at the minute and i generally chop and change quite often. At least with a gtst it appeals to the growing following of drifting and its much cheaper so suits motorsport better.
 
Your last one was white as well if I remember correctly? That was really smart as well.

I've never really considered Skyline ownership as I always thought the one to get was the GTR, but like you say the the gtst is considerably cheaper to run and I imagine the better daily drive experience as well.

A gtr is the one to own if your not worried about selling it on and also having it reasonably tuned and the money to modify it. There heavy cars and need proper tuning before they live up to there massive potential. By then your out 10k for something ok and 12k for something yum

The gtst is much more affordable, less goes wrong, many more about so parts are easier to get, very easy to maintain a gallon of oil filters and thats about it, no fancy computer type sensors everywhere type car.

If i knew i could sell a gtr easily i would have bought my mates. The gtst is much easier sold as its a third of the price of a gtr and ripe for people that fancy a bit of drifting or just more entertaining road use

Update

Now with Link G4 ecu full standalone management. No more air flow meter running MAP based system now. Fully mapped and fitted by Richard Bradly of Bradly Motorworks. Great guy. Boost set to 1.4 bar on high and .9 on low. Antilag fitted also :)
By Fudge she is going well lol. Rev limit raised also to 7800

Also had all geometry setup by one of the top drifters from over here, car drives very very well now. But need rear arches rolled slightly now. But that is happening on monday, was meant to happen this morning but ended up balls deep in sourcing a radiator and fitting it.

Next weekend, trip back to Richard Bradly for small tweaks to map as i discover them on the road. So far noticed needs a tiny bit more fuel on the cold start to avoid me having to tap the throttle when turning it over to fire it. And a little ripple ironed out on very light throttle at 3k rpm

:D
 
Very nice :D

Granted it was a while back now but how much did you get it for? Looks excellent nick.

Probably should have waited and got this though ;)
