Ok, so I lied. Looks like the seller backed out...

So...anyway... I need a car! Looking to buy soon, but can't pick up till april '04 (In the military).

'95-'98 silvia... MUST be 5 speed. will pay up to $8000...

Wish I could take one of these Skyline's home... they're like minivans out here...

Couldn't you buy one, ship it back home, and convert it to Left Hand Drive? It might be cheaper than buying one back here...and having a JDM Skyline would just be SICK.

An R32 goes for around 3-4 grand out here, give or take. Shipping $900 Conversion $15,000 Bonds, taxes, etc ~$5000

$25,000 Not bad for a sweet car, but I'd rather build a $25,000 S14... it'd be a hell of a lot better...

As for a 240, I don't care what it looks like, has in it (i.e. KA24DE), as long as its manual (which, in reality is not too big of an issue) I intend to do the SR20DET swap as soon as I touch it. Just need a frame and some kind of car wrapped around it. Running is nice though.
