Bought a new car (56K DEATH)

[US_R33]

Yes the rumors are true.....I have sold my Skyline. I know some of you aren't going to be able to grasp the fact that I owned a Skyline and have sold it lol....but that's okay, the gentleman offered me a large sum of money that I couldn't turn down. You know what they say.....everything has its price He told me he wanted to use it as a track car :shrug:

Anyway, I will be picking up my newest toy this week. Here are a few pics of the car along with the mod list. I normally frown upon buying a car that already has been modded but I know the origins of this car and the mods that are on the car are the same parts I would put on the car if I were to start from scratch.

I will be installing an Apex-i SAFC II as well as an Apex-i AVC-R and having the entire car tuned over at Car V2 in the near future. I'm also going to install a Greddy Full Auto-timer. I will be replacing the current steering wheel and extension with my FET quick release and Nardi steering wheel from my Skyline. I will also be replacing the Greddy Type RS BOV that is on the car with my ARC BOV.

In the spring time I will be installing a set of Zeal Function Xs coilovers and perhaps a different set of wheels and tires for the summer time.

Last but not least, all of my sponsor for my Skyline have agreed to stay on for this project as well
- Endless USA
- TWM Performance
- Car V2

Enjoy the pics

Very Very Nice car man. I hate to see the Skyline go cause it was very sexy, but to tell you the truth, I would give up a Skyline any day of the week for a Silvia. Good Luck with the car man and I am not that far away, come by and show me in person, I definately want a good look at it!

[OutOfStock]

wow....those pics are HUGE. Im guessing you have a good chunk of cash left also. I was expecting to see something like an STI, Evo or 350z or something lol

[WhiteXFire]

Yeah, seriously, broadband or not, resize them so you can see them.

[CarbonIS]

this thread is DSL death too haha

[Scapegoat]

resize please

[the mike]

Should read "T1, go read a novel". Jesus those are HUGE pics.

Looks good man. You should really consider giving me the front clip though. Seriously.

[Intercooled T]

my T1 is even taking 4-eh-ver.

[rjsdxm]

[SexyScionTC]

Wow, really big pics but love the car...the skyline will be missed

i was thinking about one of those cars, or maybe a G35 coupe of even an S2000.....but i'm not one to conform the s13 coupes are a rare breed and i've always loved how they look......plus the car should weigh less than 2800lbs with me in it and a half a tank of gas....combine that with 400whp (within a year or so) and I'll take my s13 over any one of those cars anyday

[US_R33]

sorry for the big pics everybody......don't know about that whole resizing stuff

[US_R33]

my computer has loaded those pics without any problems what so ever.....i have a cable connection

[TehWagon]

understandable, i also am sad to see it go (it added a certain coolness factor to tell people about the forum and throw in that we had a member with a skyline) but the sylvia is indeed a suitable replacement.

oh and +1 on giving mike the front end

you can still tell people you have a member that owns a Skyline

i will definitely be doing a RHD conversion on my s13 within a year or two tops (that's the plan at least)...then i'll really have myself a Silvia
