    Exclamation Shock. SXOC user leaves S Bodies. Does NOT get BMW

    Although I have to say, I almost bought an M135i

    Anyway, goodbye H15 FTW. Hello RKZ 6641, soon to be H15 FTW



    It's. Amazing. Old, but amazing.

    AMAZING!!!! Would have loved to have gotten one but too much money in them for me and I wouldn't be confident enough to run one daily! I will eventually get one though...... one day...... when I retire..... and they are £50k

    I got involved for the investment reason. They've only been going North in money so I'm hoping I can pass it off in a couple of years for at least what I paid. But it's so much fun.

    Thanks dude. It's quite comprehensive actually, certainly doesn't need any more. Brakes are sharp, but don't know what's in there at the moment.

    The skyline looks good, much better than getting a BMW.

    My mates got the M135i, bloody good car but characterless compared to skylines and s-bodies. Good choice dude.

    Actually LOL at the title. Nice upgrade? ooh! How does it compare to your old 14? I used to really want a R32 but I think I'd rather an R34 now...I think!? More pictures and what are your plans for it Ryan?

    Thanks all for the kind work. No massive plans, just some TLC. I'm having the windscreen seals replaced, a bit of paint to smarten it up and then maybe some new brakes.

    I am just enjoying having a quick car to use regularly rather than always having it in pieces. It's a shade under 460hp at the hubs so it doesn't need anymore 'go'.

    Awesome. My dream is the R34 GTR but with prices going all kinds of silly I could see myself in one of these.

    I don't suppose it feels much older than the 14a?

    Not really no. It definitely looks older, but it feels a lot more raw than a standard / lightly fettled S14. It's difficult to be completely objective about it because the suspension is not comparable, but it's a good feeling car.

    I've found them to be closer to an S13 than S14 in feel to be honest. They're a tad heavier with the RB but the balance is very similar. They're a different beast entirely though really.

    It looks great man best of luck with it!

    Good choice dude imo, I nearly bought a very nice white one in 2011 but ended up buying three 14a's instead
    often wish I had gone for the r32 GTR it would have easy doubled in value by now
    yours reads as a very nice example btw not jealous at all

    Thanks chaps, appreciate it. The hope is that it will go up in value as time goes on.

    Thanks again. They are Rota GTR's so you can imagine they are close to the top of the list of changes incoming. I will get some more pictures when I find someone handy with a camera, I gave up all my gear.

    There are plenty of little gremlins, mostly electrical, to be expected with an old Japanese car, but they are things I will sort shortly.

    Already bought something then? I have some D9Rs that would look very swell on this.

    (I like them but I bought 9.5s when I really should have bought 8.5s)
