  • R31 x 3 = R93?

    SO I recently decided that I will buy a car for a daily as i would like to do more track work with the 180 and would need something to drive to work while the 180 is getting work done.
    After trolling forums, FS adds and Ebay I pretty much gave up... until i accidentally stumbled onto the bargain of a century

    3 R31 Skylines in running condition for $1500 BUY NOW price on Ebay, 1 of the cars had registration till August, 1 was a manual and 1 was on LPG

    After making a quick phone call to the seller to make sure the cars were running and the price was $1500 for 3 cars not $1500 for each, I bought the cars.

    SO here is the Build thread that will see only 1 car make it to the end.

    The plan is to use the registered car as the main car and see all the good parts of the other two cars transferred over, to make 1 mint daily

    The left over 2 cars will be sold to recoup the purchase cost of the cars

    Cost:

              probably not going to make a Silhouette copy but these are Ti model, so it has all the luxury interior, power windows, mirrors, doors, trip computer, etc

                          got this nice yellow sticker on the windscreen of one of my cars today from the council

                          the sticker is actually bright yellow, but this is how my scanner, scanned it



                          because one of the cars parked on the street is unregistered the council wants me to move it

                              still deciding what wheels to run on the car

                              Option 1
                              these, which i have bought a while ago

                              i have a few size options for widening these wheels
                              15x8 -3
                              15x8.5 -9
                              15x9 -15
                              15x9.5 - 21
                              15x10 - 28

                              or

                              Option 2
                              these, which are for sale for $550 atm

                              when widening the size options are
                              15x8 -1
                              15x8.5 -7
                              15x9 -13
                              15x9.5 -19
                              15x10 -26

                              widening the wheels would cost around $600-700 for the set

                              By what i've see 15x8 +/-0 is pretty much perfect on stock guards, especially when changed to an S13 front end

                              I'm on a bit of a tight budget after buying the cars, so I'm leaning towards Option 1 and getting them widened to 15x8 -3
