6G Celicas Forums

Valo, I've always thought you were a pretty smart guy, but after this post, it's questionable. You've got to be crazy not to get ahold of that thing. I supposed you could just be attached to the 6gc style, which is better. But man, I would love to have one of those GT-Rs. I'd trade my Celica for a regular 4 door Skyline. Good luck, I'm going to look for a S14 now, or at least a copy.

you know, performance wise, yeah baby. but its deffinitly not good looking to me, the front bumper is a plus but lets face it its a ugly boxy sedan and because of that I would only trade my celica for it then sell that thing to buy my celica back with a little bit of the money I get for selling it. otherwise no.

However a newer model would be much better.

that skyline has awesome preformance...but its ugly as hell...looks like a short sedan (i like the newer version), so for me i would be with the celi, much friendlier...and cheaper to mantain (gas, etc), also i dont run anywhere so i would stay for appearence than preformance, but its up to you, if u want preformance its a good deal

I am a hardcore toyota fan. I wouldn't trust anything else for reliability.
The Celis looks are destined to be classic. No for me.

you- no more talking.

see other people agree with me!

dude id get it but check on auto traders cuz they have 5 other sky's on there. all between 10,800 to 20gs. its a hot car but what do you think the insurance is gonna cost you?? im reconsidering mine too now....but i just got it body'd and painted!!!!!!...damn

if I ever take over the radioshack down the street from me where im makin $80k+ a year im going to get a skyline from evolution imports. $60k for a legalized R34 TT with 10k miles on it.

eeehh i remeber that car wasnt it in a mazda dealership down in dufferin street?

i would give my left nut for that car. its my dream car (well actually gtr34 is, but its close) one day there will one or two parked in my garage. tell the guy ill trade him my celi for it... ill drive it up in a few days

um. 80k a year at radioshack?

I personally wouldn't do it, only because it's modifed and that means it was probably ran hard and beat to hell. Bulletproof or not, I don't like "agressively used" cars. If I'm in the market for a car and I see so much as one cone filter or fart can I immediately walk away.

that's my favorite model of skyline, sooo hot. keep the color too, it's purdy

I will join in on this carpool effort!! That thing sounds sooo mean you have to buy it!

valo have you traded your car for this thing yet? if the answer is no i will also be joining in the nut kicking action

bboy

You can get GTS-T type-m or GTS-4 easily for under 10 000 $.

The only reason I don't get one is the parts and maintainance items, maybe if I had more money and a garage for a 2nd car I'd think about it but for now, those car cost alot more time and money than one could think of .

that would be the fastest decision i would make in my life

do it man do it!

Quite a bit of money. I doubt that Skyline would even come close to passing smog, but I read in a magazine that some guy installed an exhaust dump after the Downpipe, and he passed, but then they caught him on it next time around. Do to it like you would a Japanese import, take the engine out and ship them over separately. Reassemble as a kit car and TADA.

...Whats a Celica?..

Hes sellin it to me for $13.5 CND cuz i helped him do alot of work on his AE when he had it and cuz hez one of my friends..if you wanted to buy it..$15.5 CND


Ive talked to some of my other friends with imported cars (other R32s, 180SX's, 1J supra's, 300ZX TT's) and they said the insurance isnt that bad. They say that the only thing to do, is when they ask you the model, say its a GTST or a GTS-4 so they dont nail you with the RB26..mind you most insurance companies donno the motors any ways


Nope, he had this thing imported straight from Japan no more then a month ago. It landed downtown, it may have sat at a dealership for a day or w/e for my buddy to come pick it up (he goes through a contact he has that has a contact in japan) and straight to his driveway, well..his shop soon as his lease agreement passes.


wasnt agressively used. The dealer in Japan said only one owner b4 it was sold, he babied the thing, and it shows. Most skylines or imported cars have dents on them, scratches, chips missing out of the paint. This thing = Mint.



Yea you can get GTS-T type-M's or GTS-4's for under $10 000, but most of them have roughly 100xxxKM on them and its only an RB20. This thing is true GT-R and has 84xxxKM on it. Most GTR's with less than 100xxxKM on them sell for $20K +


and for an update. I talked to my friend, i told him im workin on convincing my parents (celi is under my dads name) to let me buy it. My dad is in a bad mood cuz he thinks his company is gonna lay him off soon, even thought he is gonna b fine if they do. But any ways, i talked to my mom and shez around 50/50 on this. She loves the look of this skyline, relizes i know what im talkin about, relizes its comin from some one i know n trust, and knows that i can get parts relatively easily for it (that was her main consern *its from japan, what if somethin breaks?? can you get the parts here??*). So right now its in negotiations. Im gonna go see him on sunday cuz my buddy wants to order a GTS-T Type-M from him and my gf wants me 2 ask how cheap can she get an S-Cargo from him..lol. Its so ugly, but shez got a thing with ugly cars.

convince, convince! dsklkdshjkhdsjsdf.

good luck with that. hardest part is convincing your parents.
