I can't get Skyline R33 GT-R's out of my head but i don't want to make the step and sell the 3dr only to be disappointed, well one i have seen is 550bhp but in a car that big i don't know if it would excite me enough 
So what would be your other choice???

i had a r33 gtr not so long ago round the 430 bhp mark mate and for the size of em they fly mate dont stop pulling through gears, you wouldn't be dissapointed, also though running above 350 bhp mate if/ when clutch goes you can only buy twin plate clutch to cope with power mine cost me 1k
a friend has a 182, scorpion exhaust, k&n, stripped out interior, carbon fibre bucket seats and i habe been in that car when he he raced and kept with an evo 6 makkinen edition, those lil clios are very underestimated, he is buying a clio v6 which i thik is death on wheels.
I am tempted to buy a pulsar gtir i know thats for sale,376 bhp 269 lb/ft quaiffe gear set and modified transfer box and seems to be quite reliable, not bad for Ł2900, will still keep my st though as i am a ford man through and through
ive had r33 gtr and fq340 and still come back to cossies.
They are nice and fun for the first week but then i get so bored, they are more expensive to take to the next level that a cossie and dont get the looks.
I just didnt get the same feeling either. I mean they are better cars with better handling etc etc but they lose more money are harder to sell and as i say they just didnt give me the same feeling.
Keep the 3 door mate, you would be mad and really regret it if you didnt.

I know sierra interior isnt so cool but i think skyline interior and seats sucks the big one. I fucking love skylines though and also get silly thoughts about them. R34 would be ace.
Porkie's experience is keeping me from even looking though. I'll stick with the 3dr.

A Veyron, but I can't afford it right now.
Thought about an Evo or a new RS Focus, but i don't like spending too much on a car, I'd rather be stupid and buy a shit cheap car and spend loads of money maintaining it.

Did Porkie have a bad experience with his Skyline? I thought he liked the r34 he had?

My dream car is an Aston Martin Vanquish

If I had to sell my 3 door and get something sensible would have to be a Holden, or vauxhall minaro as their known here,
only thing I'd sell mine for would be a radical or Westfield equivilent

Realistically:
-Sierra Cosworth 3DR / 2wd / 4x4
-Integrale 16v
-Skyline R32 GT-R / R33 GT-R
-205 GTI / 306 GTI-6
-Evo 6-7
There some. Only for hobby car purpose. Last night i first time drove 4x4 cosworth and really like it much... tempting one! Skyline also is really tempting but i am bit worried about servicing and keeping it in good shape. I really dont know which is best country in Europe to buy Sierra Cosworth during present day? I naturally prefer LHD because i live in Finland. There in U.K is many nice examples for sale, but i dont know is RHD-LHD conversion how hard to do in Sierra?

996 turbo or a csl
on the skyline front gtr's are to heavy and there a bit torque less as everyone ive driven or been in seems that way and when you look at the graph compared to horse power they are this is why i picked the gtst as i had enough money at the time to get a gtr but all the skylines mae a cossie feel primative in all ways .I know theres a few that will buy another cossie but i never will as i feel i have a modern 2wd cossie right added to the fact its reliable as ive bashed the shit out of it for 9 months and all its needed is a service lol do that with a cossie every day use

i will have a 996 turbo one day soon, i had a gtst standardr and made it stage 1/2 and i had a Gtr standard and made it stage 1/2.
Gtr was a much more sure footed, much better handling, quicker, more comfortable, the list goes on.
i would have another gtr but not a gtst.
