24-03-09, 16:02 GMT+10#28 go the gtr...
how long can you drive a dead stock n/a converted for, its clean but its still not an original turbo blah blah blah
9500 is a **** load for a n/a converted... take it.. and with the massive downfall in money over the world imports have dropped in price heaps
get a GTR....
GTR or converted N/A thats the question...

This is coming from someone that doesn't own one.. You have no idea what your on about. Just as expensive to maintain as any other car with good maintenance records.
I think Jack hit the nail on the head, 9.5k is heaps and its not like you won't find another one if you do happen to regret it, but I can almost vouch for the fact you won't regret it, I don't
If people like Darren & Jack can spend 10's of thousands on their VLT's and move on without regret then it shouldn't be an issue for you

24-03-09, 21:14 GMT+10#32 In your case Mark, I would seriously have to think twice with scheels and sunroof genuine LW5 MS1 but in Bogyz position I think I would move on, buy another later if need be

25-03-09, 08:13 GMT+10#33 Mine was LW5 and I love VLs as much as anyone and I still don't regret it... they'll always be around. I wouldnt think twice about selling a high comp for 9500?? I've sold a couple of standardish LW5s and really struggled to get even near that. Dallas' old red one which was LF1 but genuine turbo everything driveline, $6000 red/silver paint, sunroof and immac S2 beige interior only got like 6500 or something rego'd up here.

Mate i know blokes who have owned them and have looked into buying 1 myself 33 and 34gtr..
As far as i can see if you blow the gearbox your pretty stuffed and they are not unbreakable like the supra box's..which are same as the gearbox's in the R34GTR's..Then if you buy a 2nd hand one how do u know if thats gonna last and not be flogged? seen as its come out of a old performance car.. Not to mention if you get any Panel damage, r32 GTR bumpers and panels are not easy to get and the ones that do have them know what they are worth and charge an arm and a leg for them..
I love GTR's just asmuch as the next person but if hes looking for something that isnt going to break all the time.. well a R32GTR is almost as old as a VL.

How is that any different to a vl running a r33 gearbox? Or any other modded import
All cars once you start playing with them cost alot. I agree with the rare panels etc thats one reason why I'm not keen on the the less common imports
