Posted in Jap Chat but though I would stick it here too.

Well the Skyline is sold and is being picked up on Saturday.

No keeping it for ever and tinkering with it any more and having a 2nd Jap car to play with too, as I had planned when looking at RX7s and Scoobs last year.

I decided to sell it and just have one newer car. My company car returns in April so need something by then.

But what should I buy?? Bugger knows, have been looking at everything from a Cayman S to R34 GTRs.

A Sagaris has caught my eye and the bonus is Mrs GMan likes it. So I might be going non jap, but I have not decided. I might try and find a well sorted NSX.

Who knows, but I will keep you update.

Sad news G-man; never got to see the skyline in the flesh.

Interested to see what you get next - the big question is whether the next run-about gets the nos treatment.

Nitrous will more than likely be involved.

I’m buying Mrs GMan a runabout on Saturday, an Audi TT, I personally loathe the car but it is for her and I can borrow it until April.

I’ve decided I’m after a big BHP Jap car again, maybe a Jap Tuning House Demo car.
My mate Jurgen who runs JM-Imports, has spotted an R33 GTR running a proven 700bhp in Japan that may be an option for me, or his RX7 that is running 500bhp.

Never a man to do anything by halves.

Which is your preference?

The RX7 is in the uk and has been running 11 second quarter miles, and has been set-up by Pip of WGT, so I know it is a great car and still has more to come.

The GTR would be a cracking car too, but I prefer RWD cars, in it's favour I feel Skylines have more presence on the road than most things.

I'm not sure.

But Mrs Gman likes the Sagaris... I think you should listen to her!
