Nah I want a GTR. I've already had a rwd rb25 powered skyline (r33 gtst). You can get a really nice GTR in Japan for less than 40. I should have a job that pays 6 figures in less than 5 years. The goal is to buy a legit GTR in 4-5 years and leave it in Japan. Build it slowly over there with high quality parts. After 2-3 years of storage it should be legal to bring over. My guess is the price will sky rocket on those when they are about a year out from being legal in the US.

GTRs go for less than 40k on the auctions all the time. Im sure they will go up within the next 3-5 years but Im okay with paying around 50k for one if I have the money. Its the car I've always wanted.

If I don't have the money or they go up a ridiculous amount in value Ill probably buy an n/a automatic R34 GT, do a GTR exterior conversion and drop in a big single turbo 2j. Wouldn't quite be my dream car though.

I'd mostly want it to be a fast street/highway car so rwd would be no big deal. Unfortunately I've already got a big single turbo JZ powered car that can accomplish those goals. It would be kind of neat to own something with AWD and big power. Maybe an R33 or R32 if I can't afford the 34.

My dream, realistic car is an RX7.
I can easily pick one up for under £20k.
I wouldn't go mental chasing power.
I would be looking for a fast road set up though, with tweaks to suspension, brakes, cooling and modest engine work (rebuild with mild street-port, exhaust, cooling upgrades)

Also wouldn't want to fuck with the aesthetics much either

>>
>>16963202
Do you live in U.S. Or Europe? Either way the z23 was pretty popular in both. The issue with that Datsun is I either pay a fuckton in Canada or I order one from Europe where they're cheap and get fucked up the ass for ten grand the second in touches soil here.

My number one dream car would be a two-tone green S13 Silvia. However, stock examples of those are pretty hard to find. I'd gladly settle for a DR30 instead. I'm pretty sure I could find, buy, and import one in perfect condition for under $20k.

Been working at it for the past half hour, got the chassis done. Just gotta do the engine and body, pretty nice to see someone else loves this car as much as me lol.
>>
>>16961469
R33 GT-R. I'm hoping to do a full chassis restomod through Nismo Omori + full engine restomod. The goal is to replicate the Nismo R2 engine but attempt to increase response far beyond what Nismo is doing now with variable valve timing and Garrett's new ceramic ball bearing 2860R-7 turbos. Maybe a new exhaust camshaft as well if it will help with response down low without compromising anything else.

It's going to be a wild ride. It's been a lot of research to figure out what the fuck needs to be done.
>>
Toyota chaser, I always lived the family car race car thing. Love the shape of the body and of course the engine plateforme. I currently own a S13 Silvia, I would like a last gen Chaser but in my country they're not allowed. Here's my ride.

In a perfect world a model x. But I'll probably settle for a model 3 next year. And I'll have to take out a long term loan for that.

It's not ideal. But its the realistic option. And I'll be happy... enough.

I know it's the answer everyone expected to hear but I've been in love with the R32 GT-R ever since I first saw it. Hopefully the prices go down when the R33 becomes 25 years old because I know there's much more cost in them than the purchase price.
>>
I want an Alfa Romeo gt junior
But they're appreciating currently, so more realistic is an old Alfa Romeo giulia.
Or maybe a 1960 coupe deville. Or a SFR if they finally decide to make one.

>>16964632
Sorry bruh. I have a S60R and while I love it, I feel like the car's on borrowed time. In addition to the possibility of the cylinder walls cracking, there are a few other things that can cost you lotsa money:
- On the manual, the clutch slave cylinder likes to eat shit, which sometimes takes out the clutch along with. That's around a $2K fix, mostly labor.
- Angle gear collar on the AWD system is weak. Failure turns the car into FWD. Fix is around $2500, mostly labor.
- 4C struts will wear over time. Replacement is $1600-$2800 for the parts alone. The price difference is the difference between the Monroe OEM parts and the Volvo branded ones, but the cheaper ones aren't always available. There's no aftermarket fix, either.
- The turning radius problem can't be fixed, and it's a little embarrassing when you have passengers. I imagine that it's more acceptable when you're in the wagon.
- The rear end likes to hop around a bit on bumps. This actually can be fixed with thicker sways and a upper rear brace.

If you still want one, make sure to get a 06-07. The first two years had more weird problems, with the 04 having an entirely different electrical system.

Cheers for the honest but brutal writeup. Knew about the angle gear failings, but the rest is new to me.
I don't mind the impracticality of it, I'm a wagon man at heart, but just not sure what else is out there for "fast but affordable wagons", preferably ones I can wrench on myself.

Stagea maybe, but the import fees will be steep. BMW e30 touring could be the answer...
