Hi everyone!

[Irvine]

Hi all new person here!!! Well not so new I've been lurking on her for a while now just never registered. Well I'm Neil and from n.ireland, Sadly I've no gtr I just drive a vw bora. Well I hope to change that some time soon.

Well I totally love skylines from the first time I ever seen a white vspec r33 about 15years ago in max power then On of my neighbours had a silver r34gtt when they first came out.

Some people dream of owning a ferrari or Porsche etc but the only car that excites me is the r34 gtr in bayside blue, sadly I don't earn anywhere enough to even think about one. So the next car on the list would have to be an r33 series3

Well I hope to get to know a few of you and get to some of the meets and drool over skylines I'll never own.

Neil

Welcome I'm new here myself - and still mooching around

[Irvine]

Cheers mate, yea I'll prob still be just a lurker on here for a long time as I already have 2 expensive hobbies marine reef keeping and racing mountain bikes. Racing mountain bikes seems to be the same as owning a gtr, always something breaking or needing tweaked but always puts a smile on your face.
Well lots of looking and reading to be done if I want a decent 33 gtr.

Thanks Neil

Hey and welcome, im new aswell going to make my own hello thread when i get 15 posts so i can make a decent one with pics om my car and old cars

[Irvine]

Hi there woojen, well I ain't got a gtr just a vw and I don't think I'll be puting up any pics of that lol. Though I had decided on a 33gtr I've seen a few 34 gtt's for the same money that resemble my FAVOURATE 34 gtr. Hmmm decisions decisions.

Id take a r33 GTR over a r34 GTT anyday , i think the r34 look lame with the "flat" fenders that the GTT have
Even tho u can get GTR fenders i guess and make it look badass aswell

[Irvine]

That my thoughts on the gtt exactly, arches just look pathetic but I don't beleave in making replicas!!! Only other problem is I will never be able to afford a 34gtr, makes me sad
Suppose I could just get a £20k loan and buy one then lol.

I would say you grit your teeth and be patient and save up until you can stretch for a R34 GTR

If you get the R33 (Which is arguably the best GTR if you have any sense of taste and decency) you will be spending money on upkeep and modifications yet still in the back of your mind you still want the other model - so you'll lose money, especially if you try to sell the R33 on.
