what car next ??????

NIGHTSPIRIT - 1st cousin!
Hi guys,

I've now sold my Skyline R32 GTSt, and am on the lookout for another car which I can use for drift days.........My budget is up to £4500.

At the top of my list is a MKII Escort (mostly cos its one of those cars I've always wanted)

I'm also hankering after an AE86 again (but would have to be a specced up one from Japan)

Other obvious candidates are S13's and S14's but I fancy something a little different.

Any other suggestions other than these ???

Cheers

Si
 
Some sorta mental massive Jap car that you don't see over here. Unsure of what the model name of these are, Cressida? Something like that :)

Thanks for the suggestions.

Jenks, that first car you posted is a Toyota Chaser JZX90, and trouble is, they have quite high values in japan (for a good one) so to bring one over would exceed my budget. I did look into these before I bought my R32.

And Scott, although I was expecting you to say TR7 :D :D , I will have a look at those sites.

cheers

If i had the money thats what i would probably get, theres something really cool aout seeing such big powerful cars drifting. I have to agree that the JZX's are cool although they were really expensive when i've looked at them. What about an A31?
 
i reccomend a car you can get parts for if you bin it. soarer isnt too bad cus there are quite a few about now. although if you get an A31 cef then you're buggered if you hit it! :nod:
 
Dude, I wouldn't recommend anyone a TR7 :no: , the're a butt ugly malhandling 70's "sports" car (you need a chest wig and medalion to drive it properly :D )
I thought about putting some nice wheels on it but a mate said "You carn't polish a turd" and I had to agree :nod:
V8 grunt is Damn good though :cool:
 
Yeah thanks Morf I had seen that one before. I just dont like the coupes that much, i prefer the hatchbacks !!

I've looked at A31's but as Matt says, parts would be hard to get hold of as they would have to come from japan.

I've always liked Soarers but they dont appeal to me over a MKII Escort or AE86.

There is far too many S14's about, I would prefer something rarer !!!

And Paz, yes sir ! you own ! lol I couldnt remember if it was a mkII or a chaser, but just said chaser cos thats what everyone else classes them as !1

hehehe


Cheers

You don't hang around mate... the R32's gone already?? Shame, as I was looking forward to seeing that.

Don't bother with a mk2 Escort. Nice as they are, good ones are AE86 money and I know what I'd rather have. Just get another hachi over from Japan and try and beat Paz's for cleanliness and free JDM gimp bits...

Surely there must be one over there for sale with a TODA'd blacktop and pimp Annex/Hamada/SS Works install accessories. Now that would be nice.

Or you could blow the cash on a fleet of drift-shitters; Manta, Monza, Carlton GSi, E28, E30, E34, Starion, Piazza, Capri, Sierra, FC etc etc. You could have one each of those and plenty of change left over from £4.5k.

Wow, look at the Supra in the background there! Looks like an authentic '95-'96 GT500 car! Stunning!

Ahem, back to the question in hand: Get a nice FC or FD, there aren't nearly enough of these being drifted in this country

Paul,

There was nothing wrong with the car, but my heart really lives with the Hachiroku !!!!

One of my friends fell in love with the GTS and offered me very good money for it (as you know, anything is for sale at the right price)

I've actually bought that blue AE86 race car that was posted on SXOC. Picking it up next week !!! :) :)

But there may be yet another hachi in the offering, so the race car may be up for sale before long !!

Cheers
