OMG! That is a beautiful and sexy car... You should definately get it. But if you get it, I think you should change the rims to some Nismo rims or what not. Great looking car other than that!

Re: Possibly buying an 89 Skyline GTS-t

So now you are selling your Honda. HAHAHA LOL
Any regret of the stupid ****in, non working gauges that are permanently mounted the the dash? Idiot.

You know you are not getting this car. But in all actuality, I hope you do. Maybe then you will stop posting stupid **** here and move on the the Nissan boards.

Re: Possibly buying an 89 Skyline GTS-t

sorry bout that....im just sick of matt and his utter BS!
the guy always has some "smart" comment, or lame-*** quote, or image he found on google to make himself appear smarter then he really is!

anyhow...back on topic here!

this Thursday my Civic goes up for sale in the B&S, so hopfully i get close to my asking price so i can get that Skyline. Im SOOOOO excited for it!
im asking 4k less then the pricetag of a new civic dx-g, but it comes closer to something like 7k or so after taxes on a new dx-g from the dealership.
so really your getting a almost new civic for 7k less with approx 5-6k worth of mods done.

Re: Possibly buying an 89 Skyline GTS-t

why does everybody think buying skylines is so unbeleivable? their a dime a dozen in b.c., austraila, europe, and asia. drive a camaro in australia europe or asia and it'll be like driving a skyline in the states lol.
