Default 3-dr or GTR32?????

Tempted by Steve @ SCC's 3dr.....but i cant decide wether i want that or the GTR.

With a 3dr i got a good base for my project 600 whilst maintaining the Saff with its piddly 440 approx bhp ..OR just bung the new engine project in the Saff and run a stage 1 GTR.....

How much can you realistically get as an agreed insurance value on the 3 dr?????


Why the fook does an old Sierra tempt me away from a Skyline Am i really a Ford freak

You already had a Skyline and didnt like it did you.So are you not answering your own Question.

I would get a 3dr but i may be Biased.

Id make the 3dr 600bhp myself and use the saff as the normal driver as it is a taxi.

Dont you think asking between a 3dr and a GTR on a FORD forum would come up with a slightly biast answer anyhow?

Agree with Stretch Phil

You had the skyline and sold it not long after, treat yourself to the 3DR (and its a minter too at a BARGIN price )

Phil,
3-door for the reasons you sacked the R32 in the first place - it is still the case about the UK tuners of the Skylines, so what has changed your mind in wanting one again? .

THEN i saw Steves 3-dr and it does look rather nice even though Tiff and Pops and Karl have them...that still dont put me off

Not yet my weird little man, havent asked again, asked once, he said he can do me one so i left it at that, havent bothered chasing him up as i have no need to.

I'm in no rush, im busy sorting out, my spray job, billy's, GRP A Beam, Jag Diff, and my gearbox, so got alot of other things to think about

Steve@SCC's 3 door is very nice.

In fact he said he was going to give it to me for being such a good customer. (*Ahh damn it I dreamt that last bit*)

Man you make me laugh at times Phil! Remember the Evo vs Escos dilemma? How have we come from that to a 3DR vs a Skyline?!?!

I think you should hire a car each week.... you seem to change your mind so much. I do it myself with things though so I know how it is. You're gonna be bored of whatever you get a month later cause you'll see other cars and wonder if you should have got one of those!

Good luck mate.
