Look this thread was started by me to help me make up mind if i should SELL OR NOT TO SELL!!

I have been driving the skyline on and off for a while now and in the past 2 weeks its been my day to day car,which helped me make up my minf to KEEP the coupe..

If it was down to pure speed and turning chavs and kids heads i would have the skyline all day,its fast, clean and well tuned up.
Its a bayside blue colour(nice),and has after market seats and other interior bits to bring it up to date and the power its got is nutts

I like the skyline ALOT its agood car,just not for me...
Im looking for some thing thats not as common and boy roy ish, I like my coupe but the sky line was a goood deal....

As many of you know ,i have chosen to stay with my coupe and spend the money getting it sprayed (next week) and other bits to cheer it up ...

The coupe has some thing about it i like,its a mix ,of its nice shape good bhp as std ,and is gona look good dam sexy when i finsih with it..


thank for all the help lol

but what skyline is it there are the best part of 10 different comon models and some i would swap my coop for in a flash and other not a chance.
by what you discribed i take it its either a r32 gtst or a r33 gtst in which case it would be a hard choice and it sounds like its been mess around with to much.
the skyline is not a comon car at all and i see far more coops than skylines. its not like a scooby.

the coop is a lovey car and with the coop all fresh i think you will love it.

bear in mind that most skylines will need a refresh soon anyway and i don't mean fancy paint but suspension and bushes replaced and los of parts are getting old just like the coop so if you can rebuild your coop for the same money as buying a skyline without a refresh done then the coop is a wise choice.
also it comes down to how much money you are willing to spend running the car as the skyline service parts are a bit more expensive and its a little bit more to insure and eat petrol.

Its a r33 ,and has not been played with to much...

just newer model seats and some nice wheels oh and few under bonnet mods...my brother has allways looked after it and serviced it well in the 3years he has had it...like i said bfore its was a hard choice to make as the skyline is in tip top working order and the coupes not as clean.

but i have a bit of cash to spend and gona sort the coupe out,not much to do now..

i may even get lucky and he will let me pay a bit now and a bit at another time then its win win ,but we will see.

oh and i do just want to say the skyline is a FUN FUN FUN car to drive ,but the coupe has had all my spare time and really want to see it finished,and i really think the coupe does just have some thing over the skyline...
