2000 r.s,
I'm not getting anything yet, I'm looking at cars.

Yes it has been on CL for a long ass time even I remember it. If it hasn't sold for so long, there's a reason why. You don't need to find out the reason and waste your time, just avoid it all together.

Oh boy, I smell disaster. Big disaster.

Or maybe there's really not much of a market for these cars around this time of year. Price is also a factor, considering for like $1000 more you can find a R32 GTR.

kolkim, have you considered a boosted civic? My old EK made a little over 200whp, and that was enough fun for a while. They're also fairly cheap now a days.

just wondering, are you like 16 op?

OP, if you don't know anything about Skyline's... I STRONGLY suggest you not get one...

^ +1 this. I say buy a 240sx.. Pretty reliable for a first car and somewhat kinda like a skyline. You can always swap in rb engines in them. But good luck finding a un-rusted, unmolested, non drifted clean 240 there hard to find

Yea i've decided I'd steer clear from skylines, bingo I'm 16, and tell me more about this boosted Civic?

Think you might be interested in a Civic Si? :troll:

why not get your N first? and I'm being serious. New drivers shouldn't jump right into a RHD car right away.

You should also narrow down on a budget..and whether you want a FWD/AWD cause you seem to be all over the place.

buy this

great first car

I am all over the place and I'm not very good at explaining myself, but I'm now very leaning towards WRXs, just looking for one in my price range, but if I happen to see a fast Honda Civic I will look into it!

^your going to have a tough time finding a unmolested one

I don't mind being molested. My car I mean ;) As long as it's within reason

What is your price range??

your first car should not be RHD

1. NO RHD as first car
if u decide not to follow that
2. 5 speed
3. 100km work done
4. AC working or else its gonna be a bitch for you to replase it cause they do not repair those old ac units anymore.

for a brand new driver, nearly any current day models are plenty fast

but yeah from the sounds of it, gas consumption doesn't matter because he sounds like he'll go WOT at every intersection.

I highly recommend against a JDM car for your first car. Get used to driving a LHD car first.

Plus you are going to have so much headache looking for importers of misc parts on that car without ripping you off big time.

It's your first car, get something in the $700 to $3000 range. Use that first car to gain some driving experience first. When you grow older and after graduating high school, then you should decide to spend on what you really want.

Do a lot more research on the cars before buying. Something like mid 90's Accord, Civic, Integra, Celica etc is what you should be looking at.

I always see these L drivers always wanting to jump into the whole drift scene when they first get their licenses.

Get a beater car, get some experience on how to drive and maintain your car from there. Don't be all flashy just so you can ride into your high school to show off your new "whip", the road doesn't need more ricers.

If you crash that new 6+ grand car then you're just wasting money, stay in the 700 - 3000 range as someone said

260 on stock PSI From an RB20?

You're dreaming.

Go buy a $2000 miata. Cheap to fix, plenty of fun. That's what I had for my first car.

Buy my sr'd 240. Going in for a paint tmrw too

i agree with this. 1989 tercel ftw and then I drove a del sol for the longest time, quick enough for me at the time and with 2 seats you don't get peer pressure to take on more passengers than you are legally allowed.

Gain experience and work up. I'm in a RHD soarer and will never look back! I'm also glad i didnt jump into it right away. Looking back as a fresh N driver it was far beyond my skill at the wheel.

Invincibility is only in your mind
